dep-get is a simple program that allows you to grab files with their dependencies. It's like apt-get from linux. (Actually, that's what inspired dep-get! :P/>)


pastebin get qxg6wex4 dep-get

(Please note: You need to whitelist raw.githubusercontent.comluca.spdns.eu in your http whitelist if you want to use this)

To have your program available to download, create an issue at https://github.com/L...Packages/issues with the label "package-request". If you can't apply the label, put "package-request" in the description. Also supply details of what dependencies it needs. (Exact names please!)



IMPORTANT:

The current dep-get server (github) will be terminated soon. We will be moving over to a nicer webserver hosted by my friend Luca_S.

This will require you to get a DepID soon. For now, you can still use this version.

You will no longer be able to use this version after 4 weeks maximum.

6 weeks if something goes wrong in the process.

With the new server, please note that everything will be different. Also, please do not abuse our file hosting system. You are not

allowed to put gigabytes of data on there.

Your maximum file storage will be 50MB.

So a package manager, but it grabs dependencies for it aswell, exactly like apt-get does. Neat idea!

Seems like it would be handy to let people curate their own package specifications, so adding or removing dependencies won't require them to ask you to do it for them again each time. Maybe something like the system packman uses, where each author can maintain their own list of packages and their dependencies?

I'll see if I can implement this. Have any tips how?

Well, packman does it by having a list that contains a name and URL for each author that publishes packages via packman. The individual authors specify their packages (and dependencies, etc.) in a file at that URL, and packman then fetches all of those files to learn about which packages are available. That way, each author can update their stuff without me having to change anything beyond the initial acceptance of their name/URL to the main list.

Testing website is now up. The current state of the website is what it will look like when finished.

Use the https version (Recommended) [Ignore the certificate error, it's a self-signed certificate.]

[Removed: By request from Luca_S]

OR use the http version (Not secure!)

Pretty neat, just an idea, what about introducing custom sources/repositories?

So that people can upload their program without a GitHub pull request? We are working on a BIG update, which will allow everyone with a "DepID" to upload programs. A DepID will be free.

Whoever wants can try it out: https://luca.spdns.eu/dep-get
