Module CPM.Package.Helpers

This module contains some operations for processing packages, like installing package sources, cleaning packages, rendering package infos.

Summary of exported operations:

installPackageSourceTo
                  ::  Package -> PackageSource -> String -> IO ([LogEntry],Either LogEntry ())

Installs the source of the package from the given source location into the subdirectory packageId pkg of the given directory.

cleanPackage
                  ::  Config -> LogLevel -> ErrorLoggerIO ()

Cleans auxiliary files in the local package, i.e., the package containing the current working directory.

renderPackageInfo
                  ::  Bool -> Bool -> Bool -> Package -> String

Renders information about a package.

getLocalPackageSpec
                  ::  Config -> String -> ErrorLoggerIO String

Tries to find a package specification in the given directory or one of its ancestors.

Exported operations:

installPackageSourceTo :: Package -> PackageSource -> String -> IO ([LogEntry],Either LogEntry ())

Installs the source of the package from the given source location into the subdirectory packageId pkg of the given directory.

cleanPackage :: Config -> LogLevel -> ErrorLoggerIO ()

Cleans auxiliary files in the local package, i.e., the package containing the current working directory.

renderPackageInfo :: Bool -> Bool -> Bool -> Package -> String

Renders information about a package.

getLocalPackageSpec :: Config -> String -> ErrorLoggerIO String

Tries to find a package specification in the given directory or one of its ancestors. If there is no package specifiction in these directories, the home package specification (i.e., ~/.cpm/home-package/package.json is returned (and created if it does not exist). In order to avoid infinite loops due to cyclic file structures, the search is limited to the number of directories occurring in the current absolute path.
