The new repository is up and running(thank you @Leledumbo!). Please go to
https://github.com/getmem/LazOpkMan download then install lazopkman(I commited a few things recently).
What's new:
- support for multiple packages in a single zip
- from now on everyone can create packages for the main repository
- improved GUI
- a lot of bugfix
- I did try to implement all reasonable suggestion from this thread, if I missed something please let me know
To do:
- update from external site(this one will be ready in a few days)
- create a personal repository
The purpose of this release is to populate the main repository with packages. To create a repository package please go to Create-->Create repository package toolbutton, then:
- select the package main directory(lazopkman will recursively search for all package files inside the folder)
- select the packages you wish to include
- choose a category
- adjust package info if necessary(lazarus/fpc compatibility, suppported widgetset, etc)
- press the create button
The whole process should take no longer then 1-2 min/ package. If all goes well you should get a zip and a json file. Upload somewhere the files and send me the link, alternatively you can send it to getmem1@gmail.com . I will wait a week or so then update the main repository agin. A realistic target is 50+ packages.
PS: What about Lazarus Code and Component Repository? Most of the packages are very old. We should include all of them? Who's familiar with the packages inside LCCR?
