RE: How to get the package metadata as structured data?

Hi, Could the guix project please make available the results of `guix package -s .` that would list all available packages in recutils format for those who do not (yet) have fully functioning guix install? Thanks? > -Original Message- > From: Guix-devel

Guix on other distros: Gentoo. [You run Gentoo? Please help testing.]

TL;DR: Guix on Gentoo, need testers with moar isolated Gentoo VMs/systems. Don't blame me when it breaks your precious system, I said I needed testers. Hi, Since Gentoo upstream decided to finally solve their very old #355355 bug on ~20:00 UTC today, I take this opportunity to clean our Gentoo

Re: How to get the package metadata as structured data?

Hi Philippe, Thank you for your interest in guix =) All package metadata can be accessed easily through scheme. There is no way to export this data currently, although it probably wouldn't be too hard to implement. The approach I was planning on taking is the following: Take a package, remove

How to get the package metadata as structured data?

Is there a way to get all the package metadata as pure data beside the html page [1] or the Guile sources [2]? Like some JSON of sorts or similar? That would be somewhat needed to audit the licenses asserted in the metadata and compare them with actually detected licenses. [1]
