Packages

Aergia supports package creation and management.

Agathos

Agathos is Aergia’s decentralized package management tool. It lets you:

• Install packages straight from GitHub
• Remove packages by name
• List packages with name, author, and version.

Installing Packages

You can install packages from GitHub using the --libget argument, or -lh for shorthand.

aergia --libget https://github.com/las-r/aergia-example-package

Removing Packages

You can remove packages by name using the --librem argument, or -lr for shorthand.

aergia --librem example_package

Listing Packages

You can get a list of packages using the --libls argument, or -ll for shorthand.

Development

Of course, you can make your own packages!

Every package MUST have the following things:

• An aerpkg.json, which gives basic package info.
• And a main.aer.

This is how an aerpkg.json should look like (note that every field is MANDATORY):

{
  "name": "example_package",
  "author": "las-r",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "dependencies": [],  // Should just be a list of links to other GH repos
  "src": "src"
}

Each field should be pretty self explanatory. The src field is just the source folder for your project. The main.aer should be located inside of the source folder.

It’s recommended to use the Aergia Example Package as a baseline for your projects.
