Hello everyone!
I'm making an Ogg Vorbis library for racket, and it's convenient
to also be able to convert Ogg files to rsounds for (planet
clements/rsound). To this end, I have an rsound-compat module in
my package.
Not everyone who uses my package will want to pull down (planet
clements/rsound) as a dependency when they install my package,
but they might want it when they use rsound-compat.
Is there a way of asking a planet _not_ to pull down that
dependency when users install this package, but _do_ install that
dependency when they try to use rsound-compat? Or should I just
bite the bullet and split rsound-compat into its own mini-planet
package?
As a workaround, I have this at the top of my rsound-compat
module, which is just enough to trick raco make but I feel icky
after typing it:
(define mono-signal->rsound (dynamic-require '(planet clements/rsound)
'mono-signal->rsound))
(define signals->rsound (dynamic-require '(planet clements/rsound)
'signals->rsound))
(define s16max/i (dynamic-require '(planet clements/rsound)
's16max/i))
(define default-sample-rate (dynamic-require
'(planet clements/rsound)
'default-sample-rate))
;; And whatever other bindings I need
Is this the preferred way of doing it? Am I missing something
obvious? Does such abuse go against PLaneT's philosophy or
something?
