  • Show HN: Getada: rustup-like installer for Ada's toolchain/package manager
    8 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 23 Apr 2024
    Getting alire installed involves downloading the zip, extracting the binary, and moving the binary to a directory in $PATH. If you're on a mac, you also have to run an "xattr" command on the tool to get it running.

    I've seen the last parts get newcomers tripped up so Getada takes the rustup approach.

    It uses github's api to retrieve the latest published release of alire[1] and then downloads and extracts it to a specified directory in $HOME. Then it creates an env file[2] and sources that file in .profile and/or .zshenv. It also logs everything that it does so it can undo it later with getada --uninstall

    [2] Here's roughly what the env file looks like that it creates https://github.com/AJ-Ianozi/getada/blob/main/src/shells.adb...

    I'm also still working hard on GetAda. It has an uninstaller now. I'm looking for people willing to test it on various versions of linux! While it may not be this month, my next steps are creating a "one liner" sort of script similar to rustup, where you can just copy and paste a command into your terminal and have Alire installed on your system.
  • GetAda: an unofficial installer for alire

    One of my major goals with Ada is to have a one-liner for people to install the whole toolchain with alire. Towards that aim, I created an installer for Alire, written in Ada. It's in VERY early release, this is just the first iteration, but if anyone would like to test it on a VM (or on your own computer) it's available here: https://github.com/AJ-Ianozi/getada
