A npm for perl6

🕕 - 6pm

6pm is a NPM for raku

Create META6.json

$ mkdir TestProject
$ cd TestProject/
$ 6pm init
Project name [TestProject]:
Project tags:
raku version [6.*]:

Locally install a Module

$ 6pm install Heap
===> Searching for: Heap
===> Testing: Heap:ver('0.0.1')
===> Testing [OK]: Heap:ver('0.0.1')
===> Installing: Heap:ver('0.0.1')

Locally install a Module and add it on depends of META6.json

$ 6pm install Heap --save
===> Searching for: Heap
===> Testing: Heap:ver('0.0.1')
===> Testing [OK]: Heap:ver('0.0.1')
===> Installing: Heap:ver('0.0.1')

Run code using the local dependencies

$ 6pm exec -- raku -MHeap -e 'say Heap.new: <q w e r>'
Heap.new: [e r q w]

Run a file using the local dependencies

$ echo "use Heap; say Heap.new: <q w e r>" > bla.p6
$ 6pm exec-file bla.p6
Heap.new: [e r q w]

Make your code always use 6pm

$ echo "use SixPM; use Heap; say Heap.new: <q w e r>" > bla.p6
$ raku bla.p6
Heap.new: [e r q w]

Running scripts

Add your script at your META6.json scripts field and run it with:

$ cat META6.json
{
  "name": "TestProject",
  "source-url": "",
  "perl": "6.*",
  "resources": [

  ],
  "scripts": {
    "test": "zef test .",
    "my-script": "raku -MHeap -e 'say Heap.new: ^10'"
  },
  "depends": [

  ],
  "test-depends": [
    "Test",
    "Test::META"
  ],
  "provides": {

  },
  "tags": [

  ],
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "authors": [
    "fernando"
  ],
  "description": ""
}
$ 6pm run my-script
Heap.new: [0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9]

6pm's Issues

Make it update META6.json

Fix exec-file

exec-file should search for perl6-modules at the file path and it’s parents, not locally (.)

Project description is needed

I looked at the readme on https://github.com/FCO/6pm and in the first minute couldn't figure out what's the goal of the project.

I think a sentence or two describing the goals of the project can make things easier for contributors/users.

Also, the description on github needs to be set also:

Add 🕕 as Module name

Add 🕕 as an alias for SixPM module name

Find a way to update META6.json with the provides field

Add `source-url`

And initialize from sensible defaults.

Use Librarify instead of calling zef by cli

https://github.com/FCO/Librarify

refactor the zef "integration"

Add bin to meta

6pm can't install versioned modules

It looks like 6pm doesn't handle versioned modules well, possibly due to unescaped angle brackets.

Using 6pm install on this repository:

Create &path-6pm

To use as:

use SixPM;
use lib path-6pm;
