@munchkinhalfling/hubcap v1.4.4

hubcap

A package manager for GitHub repositories

Installation

$ npm install -g @munchkinhalfling/hubcap

Usage

To install a repository, run sudo hubcap install <org>/<repo>. For example, to install Bettermake, use sudo hubcap install munchkinhalfling/bettermake. \ Hubcap installs each program in its own prefix and then symlinks the binaries. Therefore, uninstallation is as easy as rm -rf'ing /usr/local/hubcap/install/<user>/<repo>. \

Adding hubcap to your repository

Create a file called .hubcap/config.yml in your repository on the master branch. See the one in Bettermake for an example and syntax. \ Then, people can install your repo as detailed above. There is no central package submission database or anything, so that is all that is needed.

Contributing to a repository that uses hubcap

You can install the dependencies of a local project by runing hubcap depend in the root directory of the project.
