34 ;;; Commentary:
35
36 ;; The idea behind package.el is to be able to download packages and
37 ;; install them. Packages are versioned and have versioned
38 ;; dependencies. Furthermore, this supports built-in packages which
39 ;; may or may not be newer than user-specified packages. This makes
40 ;; it possible to upgrade Emacs and automatically disable packages
41 ;; which have moved from external to core. (Note though that we don't
42 ;; currently register any of these, so this feature does not actually
43 ;; work.)
44
45 ;; A package is described by its name and version. The distribution
46 ;; format is either a tar file or a single .el file.
47
48 ;; A tar file should be named "NAME-VERSION.tar". The tar file must
49 ;; unpack into a directory named after the package and version:
50 ;; "NAME-VERSION". It must contain a file named "PACKAGE-pkg.el"
51 ;; which consists of a call to define-package. It may also contain a
52 ;; "dir" file and the info files it references.
53
54 ;; A .el file is named "NAME-VERSION.el" in the remote archive, but is
55 ;; installed as simply "NAME.el" in a directory named "NAME-VERSION".
56
57 ;; The downloader downloads all dependent packages. By default,
58 ;; packages come from the official GNU sources, but others may be
59 ;; added by customizing the `package-archives' alist. Packages get
60 ;; byte-compiled at install time.
61
62 ;; At activation time we will set up the load-path and the info path,
63 ;; and we will load the package's autoloads. If a package's
64 ;; dependencies are not available, we will not activate that package.
65
66 ;; Conceptually a package has multiple state transitions:
67 ;;
68 ;; * Download. Fetching the package from ELPA.
69 ;; * Install. Untar the package, or write the .el file, into
70 ;; ~/.emacs.d/elpa/ directory.
71 ;; * Byte compile. Currently this phase is done during install,
72 ;; but we may change this.
73 ;; * Activate. Evaluate the autoloads for the package to make it
74 ;; available to the user.
75 ;; * Load. Actually load the package and run some code from it.
76
77 ;; Other external functions you may want to use:
78 ;;
79 ;; M-x list-packages
80 ;; Enters a mode similar to buffer-menu which lets you manage
81 ;; packages. You can choose packages for install (mark with "i",
82 ;; then "x" to execute) or deletion (not implemented yet), and you
83 ;; can see what packages are available. This will automatically
84 ;; fetch the latest list of packages from ELPA.
85 ;;
86 ;; M-x package-install-from-buffer
87 ;; Install a package consisting of a single .el file that appears
88 ;; in the current buffer. This only works for packages which
89 ;; define a Version header properly; package.el also supports the
90 ;; extension headers Package-Version (in case Version is an RCS id
91 ;; or similar), and Package-Requires (if the package requires other
92 ;; packages).
93 ;;
94 ;; M-x package-install-file
95 ;; Install a package from the indicated file. The package can be
96 ;; either a tar file or a .el file. A tar file must contain an
97 ;; appropriately-named "-pkg.el" file; a .el file must be properly
98 ;; formatted as with package-install-from-buffer.

113 ;;; ToDo:
114
115 ;; - a trust mechanism, since compiling a package can run arbitrary code.
116 ;; For example, download package signatures and check that they match.
117 ;; - putting info dirs at the start of the info path means
118 ;; users see a weird ordering of categories. OTOH we want to
119 ;; override later entries. maybe emacs needs to enforce
120 ;; the standard layout?
121 ;; - put bytecode in a separate directory tree
122 ;; - perhaps give users a way to recompile their bytecode
123 ;; or do it automatically when emacs changes
124 ;; - give users a way to know whether a package is installed ok
125 ;; - give users a way to view a package's documentation when it
126 ;; only appears in the .el
127 ;; - use/extend checkdoc so people can tell if their package will work
128 ;; - "installed" instead of a blank in the status column
129 ;; - tramp needs its files to be compiled in a certain order.
130 ;; how to handle this? fix tramp?
131 ;; - on emacs 21 we don't kill the -autoloads.el buffer. what about 22?
132 ;; - maybe we need separate .elc directories for various emacs versions
133 ;; and also emacs-vs-xemacs. That way conditional compilation can
134 ;; work. But would this break anything?
135 ;; - should store the package's keywords in archive-contents, then
136 ;; let the users filter the package-menu by keyword. See
137 ;; finder-by-keyword. (We could also let people view the
138 ;; Commentary, but it isn't clear how useful this is.)
139 ;; - William Xu suggests being able to open a package file without
140 ;; installing it
141 ;; - Interface with desktop.el so that restarting after an install
142 ;; works properly
143 ;; - Implement M-x package-upgrade, to upgrade any/all existing packages
144 ;; - Use hierarchical layout. PKG/etc PKG/lisp PKG/info
145 ;; ... except maybe lisp?
146 ;; - It may be nice to have a macro that expands to the package's
147 ;; private data dir, aka ".../etc". Or, maybe data-directory
148 ;; needs to be a list (though this would be less nice)
149 ;; a few packages want this, eg sokoban
150 ;; - package menu needs:
151 ;; ability to know which packages are built-in & thus not deletable
152 ;; it can sometimes print odd results, like 0.3 available but 0.4 active
153 ;; why is that?
154 ;; - Allow multiple versions on the server...?
155 ;; [ why bother? ]
156 ;; - Don't install a package which will invalidate dependencies overall
157 ;; - Allow something like (or (>= emacs 21.0) (>= xemacs 21.5))
158 ;; [ currently thinking, why bother.. KISS ]
159 ;; - Allow optional package dependencies
160 ;; then if we require 'bbdb', bbdb-specific lisp in lisp/bbdb
161 ;; and just don't compile to add to load path ...?
162 ;; - Have a list of archive URLs? [ maybe there's no point ]
163 ;; - David Kastrup pointed out on the xemacs list that for GPL it
164 ;; is friendlier to ship the source tree. We could "support" that
165 ;; by just having a "src" subdir in the package. This isn't ideal
166 ;; but it probably is not worth trying to support random source
167 ;; tree layouts, build schemes, etc.
168 ;; - Our treatment of the info path is somewhat bogus
169 ;; - perhaps have an "unstable" tree in ELPA as well as a stable one
