Development
What’s in the pipeline, how it works, how it’s made…
It’s not me. It’s you.
I was asked if this was a known bug. It’s not. I don’t think anyone knows about it. dvl: ping. FreshPorts truncates COMMENT. Known issue? https://www.freshports.org/devel/include-what-you-use/ Here’s what I found there: Tool for use with clang to analyze Here is what the Makefile contains: $ grep COMMENT Makefile COMMENT= Tool for use with clang to

A downside of storing the exact results of ‘make -V’
As you know, I’ve been working on branches this long holiday weekend. Today, I managed to get the display of a port on a branch to correctly. Along the way, I discovered a downside to storing raw data in the database. Take for example this output: This is the output of make -V RUN_DEPENDS. You

A single function for creating a new port
In my two previous posts I talked about creating a new port and copying a port from head to a branch. The goal of this post is the creation of a new function: CreatePortOnBranch($category_name, $port_name, $CommitBranch) The failed start I started out with this stored procedure: Running it gave this message: # select CreatePort(‘sysutils’, ‘bacula-server’,

Copying a port from head to a branch
In my previous post, I wrote about the need to copy a port from head to a branch in some circumstances, specifically when a master-port is updated and the slave ports do not already exist in the FreshPorts database on that branch. This is a side-effect of FreshPorts only taking action for commits, and not

Branches – add a new port automagically
The tracking of branches has turned out to be more involved than I thought. Many functions are already branch-aware and return / do the right thing. Tonight, I tried my recent idea of using head to get the slave ports for a given master port on a branch. So far, that works. The hard part

Branches are simple, but more complex than head
I used to think branches were simple when it came to FreshPorts, but I was wrong. Consider slave ports for example. If we get a commit for databases/mariadb100-server, we have to update the slave ports, but only the slave ports on the branch, not the slave ports on head. That sounds easy enough, but keep

Improving the home page query
See the issue raised here. On 1 April 2016, we had some large commits (you can see them all here). This ground the front page to a halt. But as you can see, that link above loads rather quickly. Why? At first, I thought it was because the date-based page was caching the results. I

Not all ports have packages
Sir l33tname asked: @DLangille is it possible to show on freshports when there is no package for a port? — Sir l33tname (@l33tname) December 29, 2015 That’s a good question. It took some more questions on IRC for me to figure it out. Here is what I know. The port in question is net-p2p/btsync and

Open sourcing the website
Today, I sat down with lattera & Shirkdog and converted the website repository from subversion to git. That repo is sitting there, ready to go. That process took about an hour. We ran this command: Yeah, I didn’t want to include all that that code in the repo. Various reasons, but mostly because they are
