The new Pkg3 package manager is now in Base and fairly feature complete, although still somewhat sparsely documented. I’m working on the latter and @kristoffer.carlsson and others have been doing truly epic work on adding and improving features now that we have it hooked into Base. So here’s the sta…

In 1.0 all stdlibs, including Pkg3, are fixed. In some 1.x version, however, we will change that and make it possible to use different stdlib package versions than the Julia version. Since dependencies on stdlibs must be explicitly recorded in your projects already in 1.0, and it’s possible to recor…

Sure, seems like a good idea but probably best as an external integration. There’s no need for Pkg3 itself to know or care about this. The [misc] section in Project.toml is guaranteed not to be significant to Pkg3 so there could be a [misc.zenodo] subsection that allows packages to provide whatever …

How will Pkg3 manage (or How is it suggested to do) the distribution of command line scripts inside packages?

Seems like having a bin directory inside the project and put them in there would work. Did you want any functionality beyond that?

I’d suggest a third option for (2): an executable (or julia switch) that dynamically alters the binary load-path in a platform-specific way such that executables stored in packages can be accessed. e.g. This is the bundle exec model for Ruby. Alternatively, we could also go full-on virtual env style…

I actually have a script folder with the scripts inside. But, I think that It could be not so easy for non-programmer users to access them. Python’s setuptools automatically includes packages’ scripts in an executable path (e.g. /usr/local/bin using Ubuntu). Having something similar in Julia could b…

Following the doc, from directory ~/Z I have created directory HelloWorld using command pkg> generate HelloWorld. First (small) problem, import HelloWorld is complaining “Module not found”. Doc needs improvement. Second (worst) problem, when JULIA_LOAD_PATH environment variable is defined (here as…
