At present I have added packages to wpkg using bat & perl scripts
that download a zip of the program, check the MD5, extract, run and
then delete the zip/temp files. This allows for disconnections during
installations, partially downloaded files fail the checksum and are
downloaded again until they work. That got me thinking if some of
this functionality could be incorporated into wpkg directly,
specifically the MD5sums of the installer command (I use the gnu
md5sum.exe port). I would offer some code however my knowledge only
extends (at the moment) to bat files and perl.
That'd be _really_really_ cool ! Both with http(s) support, we'd be on
the way to "winapt" ;) :P
Hmm, interesting idea.
Sounds like we could do:
wpkg /update_sources - to update package definitions
/me so excited ! :D
wpkg /install_web acrobat_reader - to install packages off the web
I'd better have a sources.xml defining where to find package sources,
and maybe thus providing a normalized way to define package path. Then
whatever the sources you defined (smb, http or any other in the future),
you would still use the same ''wpkg /install'' command.
However, I think perl installation would be an overkill for that.
+1, one nice thing with wpkg is that it has "no" dependencies provided
your windows setup satisfies to very few requirements. On the other
hand, this may lead to "reinvent the wheel" if Perl could already
provide usable code...
Probably we could use some Cygwin tools like wget, md5sum, unzip etc.,
installed in \\server\wpkg\tools?
When I think to internet based deployment, a la apt/yum/urpmi..., these
mandatory tools may be bundled with wpkg in a (silent) installer so that
"isolated" hosts can be autonomous and pull their updates straight from
a web server
Very Bests
