| mithro | heyo people | 12:27 |
| mithro | JLafont: how did you go the other day? | 12:27 |
| mithro | ezod: pong | 12:27 |
| mithro | I might be a bit in and out as I'm on a bus atm | 12:28 |
| ezod | mithro: hey, working on the download page stuff, i've re-thunk some of it | 12:36 |
| mithro | ezod: opps, I need to get off the bus in a second | 12:37 |
| mithro | if you keep talking I'll check the logs when I get to the office | 12:37 |
| ezod | mithro: that works, i'll just ramble on then :) | 12:37 |
| ezod | refer to http://glorfindel.mavrinac.com/~aaron/tp/download.xml | 12:38 |
| tpb | <http://ln-s.net/2Lki> (at glorfindel.mavrinac.com) | 12:38 |
| ezod | i decided rather than having a version header and possibly multiple versions, that the download page would just display the latest stable packaged version for each platform | 12:39 |
| ezod | including source and inplace as platforms | 12:39 |
| ezod | that way if there are version discrepancies due to, say, lazy gentoo overlay maintainers, you can still link to the latest for other platforms | 12:39 |
| ezod | again, platform detection would just emphasize your platform, if applicable | 12:40 |
| ezod | so each platform then would have its own instruction page | 12:41 |
| ezod | and we could fill in the specific instructions (e.g., what package name to emerge or apt-get) from the link they clicked (under a particular product) | 12:42 |
| ezod | instructions could include additional notes, like dependencies perhaps | 12:42 |
| ezod | so far i'm planning to do this based on the product name, which coincides with the git repo name, and hopefully with the package names on each platform | 12:43 |
| ezod | i hope that's a reasonable assumption | 12:43 |
| ezod | so we will require the following to implement this: | 12:44 |
| ezod | 1. host download.xml (rename if desired) somewhere on tp web | 12:44 |
| ezod | 2. write generic instructions for each platform | 12:44 |
| *** mithro has quit IRC | 12:44 | |
| *** mithro has joined #tp | 12:45 | |
| ezod | 3. make the instruction pages incorporate package-specific instructions and file URLs if applicable | 12:46 |
| ezod | 4. create a main download page that displays the products and highlights your platform's versions | 12:46 |
| ezod | 5. make sure everything is in order for repos/overlays/files... a notable example is the gentoo overlay xml still residing on mavrinac.com ;) | 12:47 |
| ezod | i'm going to come up with some more details for the download/instruction page generation and probably try to implement it in php | 12:48 |
| ezod | also, tpclient-pywx will get some functionality to download the xml file and send you to the download page to get servers and ais | 12:50 |

| ezod | mithro: hey, stepped out for a bit, what's up? | 13:40 |
| mithro | ezod: was going to discuss what you said | 13:40 |
| ezod | sure | 13:40 |
| mithro | couple of things | 13:44 |
| mithro | the deb/package name doesn't match the repository name all the time | 13:44 |
| ezod | are they at least consistent with one another? | 13:46 |
| ezod | like, can i say <productname>-<version>.* applicable to all platforms? | 13:46 |
| ezod | git repo is not necessarily important to match | 13:46 |
| ezod | actually, even the version part doesn't matter, just the product name string | 13:47 |
| ezod | i suppose even that i can work around pretty easily | 13:48 |
| mithro | no they are not consistent between systems | 13:53 |
| ezod | alright, i'll add an explicit URL for platforms requiring a file download | 13:55 |
| ezod | would it be fair to say that 'emerge <productname>' and 'apt-get <productname>' and the like would be consistent, or do i need to specify those as well? | 13:56 |
| ezod | just updated download.xml to include <file> elements that point to one or more download locations for files if applicable | 14:00 |
| ezod | the instruction pages for platforms requiring file downloads would refer to them | 14:01 |
| ezod | (right now i've only added them for tpclient-pywx) | 14:02 |
| mithro | i'm just doing a mockup of what I'm thinking | 14:03 |
| ezod | ok | 14:04 |
| mithro | ezod: patch sent | 14:24 |
| ezod | mithro: thanks, will check it out when possible, i'm on something at school for the moment | 14:26 |
| mithro | I think we should also have "complete" packages | 14:26 |
| mithro | which include everything you need in one package | 14:26 |
| ezod | that works, with gentoo you can have a meta ebuild that just pulls a bunch of dependencies, other pm's have similar methods, and then there's just big globs for everyone else | 14:28 |
