For information about PD, -look at the <A HREF="http://www.pure-data.org">Pure Data website</A>. - -<H2>How to download the PD externals</H2> - -ANN:This is preliminary information, later it will be just downloading a source tarball or -the precompiled binary distributions. -<p> -You have to install cvs. On most Linux system this is already install, on Windows or MACOS/X -you will have to download it from the net (TODO: add link). -</p> -Then, if you have cvs install (this example is assuming the commandline version) use the following line -to login into the CVS server: -<p> -cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.pure-data.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/pure-data login -</p> -hit return when you are asked for a password. -In order to get the source: -<p> -cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.pure-data.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/pure-data co externals -</p> -<h2>How to put your externals in the repository</h2> - -<h3>Why you should care</h3> -<p> -PD has a huge user base, we are all enjoying to work with PD. But sometimes when you do a big project -there are some things that you want to do, but it is not possible to do it by patching only. -Thats why so many different people wrote lots of externals for PD, and most of them (I hope so at least) -are putting them on the web for free download. -</p> -<p> -It has become increasingly hard to have the overview over all these externals, thats why we started this -external repository, where developers can add their externals. This way it will be easier to manage the -externals, update orphaned externals, distribute compiled versions for different systems, avoid duplication -of effort, and finally the users have the advantage of beeing able to download it from one single place. -</p> -I could go on listing advantages of this system, but there is one big disadvantage. We have to work -on it inorder to make it a sucess. We have to learn CVS, we have to import our projects into the -repository. I think it is worth this work, because you gain a lot too. If you donīt have the time to -get into this, but still agree that your external becomes part of the repository, just write me an email -(ANN: link to email). -<h3>The procedure</h3> -<p> -To contribute your pd externals to the repository you have to register yourself at sourceforge first. -(You will be a official developer of the project then). Go to sourceforge.net and click on the "new -user" link on the upper left corner. Then send me an email and tell me the user you created, I will add -you to the pure-data developer list then. -</p> -<p> -You can see at the -<A HREF="HTTP://sourceforge.net/projects/pure-data">project page</A> if you are already listed as -a developer. The next step is to "import" your source code. First make sure that your code is in a -directory, and remove everything from that directory that you donīt want to put under CVS. -Compiled code, for example, is not put into CVS, normally. -</p> -Make sure you are in this directory and issue the command:<BR> -cvs -z3 -d:ext:developername@cvs.pure-data.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/pure-data import externals/dirname developername source<BR> -If all of this went well, move away your external directory (keep it as a backup) and checkout the code -with:<BR> - cvs -z3 -d:ext:developername@cvs.pure-data.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/pure-data co externals - - - - - -</BODY></HTML> |
