dgtools::repo - package and command line application for installation of tcl packages directly from github and chiselapp repositories.
dgtools::repo - is a package for directly downloading folders and packages from github and chiselapp repositories. I is useful if multiple packages are available within a certain repository and the users only like to install one or a few of them. Further a command line interface is available to download specific directories from larger repositories.
package require tls package require json package require dgtools::repo namespace import dgtools::repo repo github import tcltk tcllib modules/snit repo chiselapp import dgroth tclcode dgw package require snit package require dgw
Furthermore this package is a standalone application which allows you to download specific folders from github and chiselapp repositories.
Here an example which downloads a folder from github:
$ tclsh repo.tcl https://github.com/tcltk/tcllib/tree/master/modules/des des
Here the same procedure but within an interactive tclsh:
[grth@bariuke build]$ rlwrap tclsh % lappend auto_path . /usr/share/tcl8.6 /usr/lib64/tcl8.6 /usr/lib64/tk8.6 /usr/share/tk8.6 . % package require dgtools 0.2 % namespace import dgtools::repo % repo github import tcltk tcllib modules/des fetching https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tcltk/tcllib/master/modules/des/ChangeLog fetching https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tcltk/tcllib/master/modules/des/des.bench fetching https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tcltk/tcllib/master/modules/des/des.man fetching https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tcltk/tcllib/master/modules/des/des.tcl fetching https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tcltk/tcllib/master/modules/des/des.test fetching https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tcltk/tcllib/master/modules/des/pkgIndex.tcl fetching https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tcltk/tcllib/master/modules/des/tcldes.man fetching https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tcltk/tcllib/master/modules/des/tcldes.tcl fetching https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tcltk/tcllib/master/modules/des/tcldesjr.man fetching https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tcltk/tcllib/master/modules/des/tcldesjr.tcl % glob des/* des/ChangeLog des/des.bench des/des.man des/des.tcl des/des.test des/pkgIndex.tcl des/tcldes.man des/tcldes.tcl des/tcldesjr.man des/tcldesjr.tcl % package require des 1.1.0
