Caveats

• This software is being actively developed. It's in beta stage and may not be stable. Some features are subject to change without notice.

• Please do NOT place your own files under ~/.uppm directory, as uppm will change files under ~/.uppm directory without notice.

environment variables

• HOME

  This environment variable already have been set on most systems, if not set or set a empty string, you will receive an error message.

• PATH

  This environment variable already have been set on most systems, if not set or set a empty string, you will receive an error message.

• SSL_CERT_FILE

  curl -LO https://curl.se/ca/cacert.pem
  export SSL_CERT_FILE="$PWD/cacert.pem"

  In general, you don't need to set this environment variable, but, if you encounter the reporting the SSL certificate is invalid, trying to run above commands in your terminal will do the trick.

• UPPM_HOME

  If this environment variable is not set or set a empty string, $HOME/.uppm will be used as the default value.

  export UPPM_HOME=$HOME/uppm-home

• UPPM_URL_TRANSFORM

  export UPPM_URL_TRANSFORM=/path/of/url-transform

  /path/of/url-transform command would be invoked as /path/of/url-transform <URL>

  /path/of/url-transform command must output a <URL>

  you can generate a url-transform sample via uppm gen-url-transform-sample

  If you want to change the request url, you can set this environment variable. It is very useful for chinese users.

uppm formula scheme

a uppm formula is a YAML format file which is used to config a uppm package's meta-information including one sentence description, package version, installation instructions, etc.

a uppm formula's filename suffix must be .yml

a uppm formula'a filename prefix would be treated as the package name.

a uppm formula'a filename prefix must match regular expression pattern ^[A-Za-z0-9+-._@]{1,50}$

a uppm formula's file content only has one level mapping and shall has following KEY:

KEY	required?	overview
summary	required	Describe this package in one sentence.
webpage	required	the home webpage url of this package.
license	optional	a space-separated list of SPDX license short identifiers
version	optional	the version of this package. If this mapping is not present, it will be calculated from bin-url
bin-url	required	the prebuild binary file download url of this package.
bin-sha	required	the sha256sum of the prebuild binary file.
dep-pkg	optional	a space-separated list of package names. these packages will be used when installing or runtime.
unpackd	optional	relative to $PKG_INSTALL_DIR. the directory where shall be unpacked to. default is empty, which means that the artifact will be unpacked to $PKG_INSTALL_DIR
install	optional	POSIX shell code to be run when installing. If this mapping is not present, and if bin-url mapping's value ends with one of .zip .tar.xz .tar.gz .tar.lz .tar.bz2 .tgz .txz .tlz .tbz2, uppm will uncompress it to $PKG_INSTALL_DIR for you. otherwise, just copy it to $PKG_INSTALL_DIR

shell variables that can be used in install block :

variable	overview
NATIVE_OS_ARCH	current machine os arch.
NATIVE_OS_KIND	current machine os kind.
NATIVE_OS_TYPE	current machine os type.
NATIVE_OS_NAME	current machine os name.
NATIVE_OS_VERS	current machine os version.
NATIVE_OS_NCPU	current machine os has how many cpu cores.
UPPM_VERSION	the version of uppm.
UPPM_VERSION_MAJOR	the major part of $UPPM_VERSION.
UPPM_VERSION_MINOR	the minor part of $UPPM_VERSION.
UPPM_VERSION_PATCH	the patch part of $UPPM_VERSION.
UPPM_HOME	the home directory of uppm.
UPPM	the executbale path of uppm.
PKG_SUMMARY	the value of summary
PKG_VERSION	the value of version
PKG_LICENSE	the value of license
PKG_WEBPAGE	the value of webpage
PKG_BIN_URL	the value of bin-url
PKG_BIN_SHA	the value of bin-sha
PKG_BIN_FILEPATH	the local file path of bin-url
PKG_BIN_FILENAME	the local file name of bin-url
PKG_BIN_FILETYPE	the file type of bin-url
PKG_DEP_PKG	the value of dep-pkg
PKG_INSTALL_DIR	the directory where the current package will be installed to.

uppm formula repository

a uppm formula repository is a git repository.

a uppm formula repository's root directory should have a formula named sub directory, this repository's formulas all should be located in this directory.

a uppm formula repository's local path is ~/.uppm/repos.d/${UPPMFormulaRepoName}

Note: uppm supports multiple formula repositories.

uppm formula repository's config

After a uppm formula repository is successfully fetched from server to local, a config file for this repository would be created at ~/.uppm/repos.d/${UPPMFormulaRepoName}/.uppm-formula-repo.yml

a typical uppm formula repository's config as following:

url: https://github.com/leleliu008/uppm-formula-repository-linux-x86_64
branch: master
pinned: 0
enabled: 1
created: 1673684639
updated: 1673684767

If a uppm formula repository is pinned, which means it would not be updated.

If a uppm formula repository is disabled, which means uppm would not search formulas in this formula repository.

uppm official formula repository

uppm official formula repository's url:

• https://github.com/leleliu008/uppm-formula-repository-android-aarch64
• https://github.com/leleliu008/uppm-formula-repository-linux-x86_64
• https://github.com/leleliu008/uppm-formula-repository-linux-aarch64
• https://github.com/leleliu008/uppm-formula-repository-macos-x86_64
• https://github.com/leleliu008/uppm-formula-repository-macos-arm64

• https://github.com/leleliu008/uppm-formula-repository-openbsd-amd64
• https://github.com/leleliu008/uppm-formula-repository-netbsd-amd64

uppm official formula repository would be automatically fetched to local cache as name official-core when you run uppm update command.

Note: If you find that a package is not in uppm official formula repository yet, PR is welcomed.
