package-deps

A command-line utility to investigate the current purescript package-sets and to let you query package dependencies or paths between packages. The deps command gives either the immediate or the transitive dependencies of a package. It also lets you pivot the package sets so as to reverse the dependencies and query the pivoted data in the same manner. The paths command gives all the paths that exist between two different packages.

querying the latest purescript package-sets

These commands query the latest packages.json file.

Firstly build the binary and then cd to the bin directory.

direct dependencies of a package

    node index deps --package NAME
    node index deps -p NAME

transitive dependencies of a package

    node index deps --transitive --package NAME
    node index deps -t -p NAME

all packages that themselves immediately depend on another package (by reversing the dependencies direction)

    node index deps --reverse --package NAME
    node index deps -r -p NAME

all packages that themselves transitively depend on another package

    node index deps --reverse --transitive --package NAME
    node index deps -r -t -p NAME

all the paths that exist between two packages (forward direction)

    node index paths --from NAME --to NAME
    node index paths -f NAME -t NAME

querying other package-sets

Use the commands listed above, but override the default target package sets by supplying your preferred version by means of the --uri parameter. For example:

    node index deps --package NAME --uri https://github.com/myrepo/packages.json
    node index deps -p NAME -u https://github.com/myrepo/packages.json

prerequisites

   npm install xhr2

to build the binary

   npm run build
