Add a tag or create release

[Michel Blanc]

It would be nice to have a tag/release so we could package this nice calculator in distributions (working on it for Arch).

Thanks !

Hey @leucos, thanks for creating this issue. I normally use tags like 0.1.0 but for some projects I had to prefix it with v, as in v0.1.0. For the Arch packaging, would some style work better than the other?

[Michel Blanc]

@soveran just use what you like best. I will strip the 'v', no problem.

[Michel Martens]

@leucos I just pushed the tag 0.1.0. Thanks!

[Michel Blanc]

Nice. Here you go https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/clac/

[Michel Blanc]

FTR, the PKGBUILD file & build process:

# Maintainer: Michel Blanc <[e-mail]>

pkgname=clac
pkgver=0.1.0.r0.gb24478a
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc='A command line, stack-based calculator with postfix notation'
url='https://github.com/soveran/clac'
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
license=('BSD')

source=("clac::git+https://github.com/soveran/clac")
sha1sums=('SKIP')

pkgver() {
  cd "$pkgname"
  git describe --long --tags | sed 's/\([^-]*-g\)/r\1/;s/-/./g'
}

build() {
  cd "$pkgname"
  make
}

package() {
  cd "$pkgname"
  manprefix="${pkgdir}/usr/share/man"
  mkdir -p "${manprefix}/man1"
  echo Created ${manprefix}/man1
  make MANPREFIX="${manprefix}" PREFIX="${pkgdir}/usr" install
  install -Dm644 LICENSE "${pkgdir}/usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}/LICENSE"
}

@soveran poke when when you need a release ou if you want to take package maintenance ownership.

The build process:

git clone ssh://[e-mail]/clac.git
cd clac/
makepkg -s PKGBUILD 
makepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO
git commit -am 'Release XYZ'
git push

@leucos Thanks a lot, I will ping you on the next release!

[Michel Martens]

Hey @leucos, I just released version 0.2.0. I also added a wiki page with links to the official packages.

[Michel Blanc]

It's up on AUR https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/clac/

[Michel Martens]

@leucos Thanks!

[Michel Martens]

@leucos I messed up with the previous release, so I had to release a bugfix version 0.2.1. I think that will be all for today :-)

[Michel Blanc]

Done !

[Michel Martens]

@leucos Version 0.3.0 was released some days ago and I forgot to mention it here. Thanks a lot for your help!

[Michel Blanc]

Done !

[Michel Martens]

@leucos Version 0.3.1 was released, but it's not critical as it only includes a fix in the man page. This version was also added to the main homebrew repository. My intention was for 0.3.0 to be stable for a long time, but then somebody spotted an error in the man page :-)

[Michel Blanc]

It's alive 👻 !

[Michel Martens]

Thanks!!!
