[1.3] Cc-Get 0.1.1

Update: Released a bug fix/update for ComputerCraft 1.3.
About cc-get
cc-get was created in the hope that it would make it easier to install, use and distribute scripts for ComputerCraft. All users may download and use cc-get without an account, however in order to post scripts on the cc-get website you must have an account.
Features

• cc-get install <program> [-v version]
Where <program> is the name of a program found on this website. It will install <program> to /bin/<program>-lib. If the author of the program has specified that the program should be available on your path a file will also be created at /bin/<program>. If you provide a valid version number, that version will be installed.
• cc-get update
This will check to see if any scripts need to be updated. If a program needs to be updated it will do so.
• cc-get remove <program>
This will remove <program> from the computer
• cc-get list
This will give you a list of all programs installed and their versions.

Installation
If you have Redworks installed
You should already have cc-get. Although cc-get is not developed by the RedWorks team, it is included in their package.
Install cc-get
Download the latest version of cc-get from cc-get.djranger.com/downloads. Enable the HTTP API if needed, then extract the file you downloaded to .minecraft/mods. If prompted to do so overwrite, combine or merge files and directories as needed.

The program library, more information, detailed installation steps and more are available at cc-get.djranger.com.

I love your script <3
Three suggestions though:

1. Some kind of dependency function would be awesome, so i can define my depencies on your site (like StringUtil or other libs) and cc-get will download everthing i need
2. Right now I'm limited two one script per project. Would be awesome if you could support additional API files and stuff like that I just realized that you added this function already. thanks!
3. Is it possible to define aliases that cc-get can automatically install persistently?

1. I am working on adding support for dependencies. I've been pretty busy, but that is my next planned feature.
3. I'm not sure what you mean. Can you give me an example?

Sure. I can run 'shell.setAlias(…)' after the first run, but it would be nice if cc-get could do that during the install/update process and on startup.

PS: Another feature I would definitely love to see is a GitHub integration. You could require a cc-get.conf file in the repo that has all the settings you need (version, description, etc). That means for us devs, that we have just to commit our changes, and all the deployment is done. And for the users it means, that they can get the latest releases per DDL (directly from GitHub) and cc-get.

I get errors when I try to install packages, and when I try to run them. (They work when I download them manually, and the script is the same.)
Running latest version as of now. (0.1.0), and the HTTP API is enabled.

And I get an exception when I try to update my project :3

PPS: I added a new directory, saved my project, and after that I've deleted it again. After clicking on Save the error occurt.

Have you seen "Command to run" on project pages? I think that might be what you're after. Most projects should have a file on the path that you can run. Allowing the user to pick a name for a program might be nice though.

As for GitHub integration, I agree that would be nice, but for now it's low priority.

I'm looking into the errors. Thank you for letting me know. I'll post more information when I have a fix.

Yea, I was using that feature. But I want an alias too :)/>/> My project name is midcraft-commander, which is a good name for the project, but to have the alias 'mc' too would make things a lot easier.

Thanks!

Also, I guess this was inspired by apt-get/aptitude? :)/>/> Ubuntu<3

Is it possible to specify the directory where programs are installed to? previously I made a program that moved a specific downloaded file over to a floppy, but it'd be nice if you could do that right there inside cc-get. then we could have something like redworks floppy version right there in cc-get and download it directly to a floppy :)/>/>

I already told you this in IRC, but for anyone else having this problem: Version 0.1.1 fixes this problem. It was specific to ComputerCraft 1.3. If you haven't updated ComputerCraft, make sure you update cc-get first otherwise this bug might corrupt your packages.json file.

That makes sense. I'll keep it in mind for a future version.

It seems that when I updated the site, somehow your project didn't get migrated. I restored it from a backup but the last version, 0.1.9.9 was lost and you will need to re-add that. It should work this time. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, other people have create/updated their projects on cc-get so it seems to just be a random thing. Let me know if you have anymore problems.

Ya, it was inspired by apt-get along with other package managers.

That's not currently possible. This is another good idea, but I want to get dependencies and some other things released first.

Understandable ^^ my program's a bit crude by most standards but if you'd like to see how I did it the program itself is up on cc-get ^^

(Feel free to rip/mutilate/otherwise render obsolete)

CC-GET works very well but I have a few ideas that may be useful.

1. Allow people to download scripts with out cc-get ( Useful for global server script installs)
2. Have a program that can be ran on startup that lists the 10 newist scrips on cc-get

Hey,

could you make the local dir var in the /bin start-scripts global?
i'm using shell.getDir() to get the path the user is currently using, but you're overwriting it.

Just changing

local dir = shell.dir()

to

ccget_dir = shell.dir()

would do the job for me.
If ccget_dir exists I'm using that value instead of shell.getDir() and my program would have no problems.
The other idea I had was passing the dir as the first or last parameter, but that would probably break some programs.

Mewk: shell.getRunningProgram() might be of use to you?

That just gives me my own path: binmidcraft-commander-libmidcraft-commander
How can that help me? o.o I there something I don't see?

Great software!
I look forward to the next updates.

Could be great to have a list of the most popular programs on cc-get's front page.
