WinRPM is an installer for RPM packages provided by an RPM-md build system. The default RPM-md provider is the OpenSUSE build service, which builds 32- and 64-bit DLLs for libraries used by several Julia packages (note: builds are cross-compiled).
To install WinRPM via the Julia package manager, use:
Pkg.add("WinRPM")To search for a package from within Julia:
using WinRPM
WinRPM.search("packagename")See also: upstream package information for Win64 and Win32
To install a library using WinRPM:
WinRPM.install("gtk2")
WinRPM.install("win_iconv","mingw32")WinRPM will automatically install dependencies declared in the RPM-md package specification.
Please see the OpenSUSE build service packaging guidelines for further information.
WinRPM may be integrated with the BinDeps
system by declaring a provides(WinRPM.RPM... line for each serviceable dependency.
For example, in the Tk.jl
package the following lines declare availability of the tcl and tk libraries
from WinRPM:
@windows_only begin
using WinRPM
provides(WinRPM.RPM,"tk",tk,os = :Windows)
provides(WinRPM.RPM,"tcl",tcl,os = :Windows)
endThese lines must be preceded by BinDeps.library_dependency declarations;
please see the BinDeps documentation for more information.
It may also be helpful to review usage examples in Tk.jl or other existing packages
(see deps/build.jl): Nettle.jl
Cairo.jl
For stand-alone use, add the following lines to your %APPDATA%/julia/.juliarc.jl file:
RPMbindir = Pkg.dir("WinRPM","deps","usr","$(Sys.ARCH)-w64-mingw32","sys-root","mingw","bin")
push!(DL_LOAD_PATH,RPMbindir)
ENV["PATH"]=ENV["PATH"]*";"*RPMbindirRPM-md provides the following functions for general usage:
update, whatprovides, search, lookup, and install
update() -- download the new metadata from the hosts. Additional hosts can be added by editing the file sources.list.
whatprovides(file) -- given a part of a filename or file-path, returns a list of packages that include
search(string) -- search for a string in the package description, summary, or name fields and returns a list of matching packages
lookup(name) -- search for a package by name
install(pkg) -- install a package (by name or package identifier), including dependencies, into the deps folder
The functions typically take a second parameter "arch" specifying the package architecture for search, defaulting to the current operating system.
Package lists can be further filtered and analyzed, as the following example demonstrates:
