Packing software developed in GNU Guile Scheme

Packing software developed in GNU Guile Scheme

[Daniel Pimentel]

Hi Guiles,

I developed a software with GNU Guile Scheme and I'd like packing to 
distribute it.

How do I do? Using Makefile?

Project dependences: Guile, LSH/SSH.

Thanks and sorry for my newbie's question :)

Note: I'll packing for Guix/GuixSD in soon, but I'd like to distribute 
to other distribution by tarball for example.

I personally just spell everything inside a directory. But there
is really no way to install the things.  I just explain how to run
my program in-place and usually it's good enough, for people to
get interested (or not!).  If someone feel like adding autotools
  or guix, they can feel free
to do it.

That being said, I am bit a liar because the modules I use nowdays
feet in a single file.  You can install them just copy/paste without
forgetting denpendencies along the way...

GUILE_LOAD_PATH is, most of the time, when I run algorithms local to
the current directory and some global directory.  I do so using the `L`
(for *L*oadpath ) with `guile' command, say `guile -L . uav.scm' [1] for
instance will start uav database server on my machine.

[1] PS: where `.' means current directory. Instead of period,  you can 
use `pwd`.

The content of the directory of the search engine is given by the `tree'
command is:

```
.

├── README.md
├── stopwords.en.txt
├── TODO
├── uav.scm
├── wiredtiger.scm
└── wiredtigerz.scm

1 directory, 25 files

```

Here is the number of lines of every file I've written for this project
including dependencies:

```
       4 hyper-port.scm
     196 hyper.scm
       5 hyper-server.scm
      29 hyper-worker.scm
     339 minikanren.scm
     271 uav.scm
     637 wiredtiger.scm
     681 wiredtigerz.scm
```

 From my experience, this scheme can be used any pure module system,
even so with guile bytevectors which support several schemes.

I feel like packaging would be overrated on my project. Also
professional experience tells me programs are much bigger (at
least in Python). At $WORK, I dealt with a single class over more that
ten thousand lines of code split over two files. In comparison two 
thousand
(at the very least!) blobs of parens over nine files seems hideous b/c
file very small in personal projects.

It's not, there is different way to do it.  Mind the fact that this is
written (somewhere (over the ra1nybow)) that Facebook and google have
massive repositories.  Those are not databases of user data, but there
source code is in single tarball.  That would be 500 000 000 lines of 
code
by the standard of my $WORK.

Thanks in advance!

Maybe look at the automake files from Sly or Guix.

No worries!  Yes, it needs to be better documented.

I was using a Automake, but without success because I never use it with 
GNU Guile Scheme (only in C/C++ projects) but I'll use Guix to packing 
it.

Thanks,

There is GNU Foliot [1], fully written in Guile, fully autotool chained, a good
example as well, not because I wrote it :) but because it also includes a user script
written in guile of course, which needs not be compiled and installed in
$prefix/bin, files are here [2]

I'd be happy to help, ping me...

Cheers,
David
