HTML package list

HTML package list

[Ludovic Courtès]

I just committed a script, build-aux/list-packages.scm, that produces an
HTML page with a list of the available package, suitable for use on
gnu.org.  The result is at
<http://www.gnu.org/software/guix/package-list.html>.

It shows all the relevant info and has links all around, with even a
JavaScript snippet to show/hide package details.

However, among other things, it lacks a nice CSS (for instance, to
remove table/cell borders, remove underlining from links, etc.)

Would someone like to help with this?  :-)

I’ll add a crontab entry somewhere to update the list periodically.

Comments?

I did that on hydra.gnu.org, so normally it will update it once per day.

Happy summer!  :-)
