Overview

Quickdist creates and updates Quicklisp distributions from a directory of local projects. It maintains distinfo.txt, releases.txt, systems.txt and source archive - all that is needed for a distribution. Currently it requires GNU tar to work. (Configurable with *gnutar*, defaults to /bin/tar.)

API

A few dynamic variables and one function are exported.

Dynamic variables determine the layout of files on disk and on the web server. Such are the defaults:

(defparameter *distinfo-template*
  "name: {name}
version: {version}
distinfo-subscription-url: {base-url}/{name}.txt
release-index-url: {base-url}/{name}/{version}/releases.txt
system-index-url: {base-url}/{name}/{version}/systems.txt
")
(defparameter *distinfo-file-template* "{dists-dir}/{name}.txt")
(defparameter *dist-dir-template*      "{dists-dir}/{name}/{version}")
(defparameter *archive-dir-template*   "{dists-dir}/{name}/archive")
(defparameter *archive-url-template*   "{base-url}/{name}/archive")

The only exported function is quickdist.

quickdist (&key name (version :today) base-url projects-dir dists-dir)

name, version, base-url and dists-dir provide values for the templates. A special default version :today is resolved to the current date in YYYYMMDD format. projects-dir is the directory each subdirectory of which is treated as a separate project to be included in the distribution.

Example

Suppose you have some projects in ~/projects/, you want to publish them from ~/dists/ and you name the distribution quickdist. Then after loading quickdist and hunchentoot:

cl-user> (quickdist:quickdist :name "quickdist" :base-url "http://localhost:4242/" :projects-dir "~/projects" :dists-dir "~/dists")
Processing {project1}...
Processing {project2}...
...
nil

cl-user> (push (hunchentoot:create-folder-dispatcher-and-handler "/" "~/dists/") hunchentoot:*dispatch-table*)
(#<CLOSURE (lambda # :in hunchentoot:create-prefix-dispatcher) {100A30DEAB}> hunchentoot:dispatch-easy-handlers)

cl-user> (hunchentoot:start (make-instance 'hunchentoot:easy-acceptor :port 4242))
#<hunchentoot:easy-acceptor (host *, port 4242)>

cl-user> (ql-dist:install-dist "http://localhost:4242/quickdist.txt")

Priorities of distributions

When multiple distributions provide the same system, the latest installed distribution is prefered by default. If this is not what you want, you can inspect priorities with (ql-dist:preference (ql-dist:find-dist "{dist}"))) and set them with setf. For a finer-grained control projects (ql-dist:find-release-in-dist) and systems (ql-dist:find-system-in-dist) have preferences too.
