Trying to reuse the update scripts used by kakoune/vim to provide the
user with an unified convergence. Some stuff doesn't work yet (parallel
download, caching) but I (anyone else welcome to try too) will improve
it in other PRs.
Not only the binary `parallel` displays a re,inder to quote their
software but it systematically breaks update here regardless of my
network quality.
Better be slow than fail. If anyone can fix it, we may rollback this.
Changes:
- Fetches rocks and builds Nix expressions for them in parallel
- Passes 'maintainers' list to luarocks-nix
- Constructs the luarocks argument list more cleanly, by using an
indexed array
- Made indentation consistent
the recent luarocks can install for a different interpreter than the one
running luarocks.
Due to the way the update is done on nix, it seems more practical to use
this feature than running the script with different luarocks-nix ?
Also made changes to lua package generation system to account for packages like cqueues
that have one version per lua interpreter.
The csv file also accepts comments now.
* lua: generate packages from luarocks
* luarocks-nix: update
* removed packages already available in nixpkgs
* adressing reviews
update script can now accept another csv file as input with -c
* Remove obsolete comment
