The data type representing the global package cache.

Constructors:


Exported operations:

emptyCache :: GlobalCache   

An empty package cache.

Further infos:
  • solution complete, i.e., able to compute all solutions

allPackages :: GlobalCache -> [Package]   

Gets all package specifications from a cache.

Further infos:
  • solution complete, i.e., able to compute all solutions

findAllVersions :: GlobalCache -> String -> Bool -> [Package]   

Finds all versions of a package in the global package cache.

Example call:
(findAllVersions gc p pre)
Parameters:
  • gc : the global package cache
  • p : the name of the package
  • pre : include pre-release versions

findNewestVersion :: GlobalCache -> String -> Maybe Package   

Finds the newest version of a package.

findVersion :: GlobalCache -> String -> (Int,Int,Int,Maybe String) -> Maybe Package   

Finds a specific version of a package.

installedPackageDir :: Config -> Package -> String   

The directory of a package in the global package cache. Does not check whether the package is actually installed!

packageInstalled :: Config -> Package -> IO Bool   

Checks whether a package is installed in the global cache.

copyPackage :: Config -> Package -> String -> IO ([LogEntry],Either LogEntry ())   

Copy a package version to a directory.

acquireAndInstallPackage :: Config -> Package -> ErrorLoggerIO ()   

Acquires a package, either from the global tar file repository or from the source specified in its specification, and installs it to the global package cache.

acquireAndInstallPackageFromSource :: Config -> Package -> IO ([LogEntry],Either LogEntry ())   

Acquires a package from the source specified in its specification and installs it to the global package cache.

installFromZip :: Config -> String -> IO ([LogEntry],Either LogEntry ())   

Installs a package from a ZIP file to the global package cache.

installMissingDependencies :: Config -> GlobalCache -> [Package] -> ErrorLoggerIO ()   

Installs a package's missing dependencies.

missingPackages :: GlobalCache -> [Package] -> [Package]   

Filters a list of packages to the ones not installed in the global package cache.

checkoutPackage :: Config -> Package -> ErrorLoggerIO ()   

Checkout a package from the global package cache.

uninstallPackage :: Config -> String -> (Int,Int,Int,Maybe String) -> ErrorLoggerIO ()   

Removes a package from the global package cache.

tryFindPackage :: GlobalCache -> String -> (Int,Int,Int,Maybe String) -> IO ([LogEntry],Either LogEntry Package)   

Tries to find a package in the global package cache.

readGlobalCache :: Config -> Repository -> ErrorLoggerIO GlobalCache   

Reads the global package cache.

readInstalledPackagesFromDir :: Repository -> String -> IO (Either String GlobalCache)   

Tries to read package specifications from a GC directory structure. If some GC package directory has the same name as a package from the repository index, the package specification from the repository is used, otherwise (this case should not occur) the package specification stored in the directory is read. This should result in faster GC loading.
