Testing new packages?

dvserg

How i make this:
Modify only
"xmlrpcbaseurl" => "10.0.0.1", // "www.pfsense.com", // 10.0.0.1 - ip my pfsense

extract 'xmlrpc.tgz' to '/usr/local/www' =>> '/usr/local/www/pfSense'

Put 'pkg_config.xml' to '/usr/local/www/packages'
~~Put you files to '/usr/local/www/packages/config'~~

need use external FTP server, because on www server .inc files downloaded wrong

NOTE:
!!! for http access to you files - create and put to '/usr/local/www/packages' and '/usr/local/www/packages/config' index.php files with catalog list !!!

I just red everithing 3 times and not really sure if i really know what to do >:(
Why wouldnt you do the IDE for packages? Also how about ability to read packaes from manual inputed servers as core GUI (no editing)

Huh?

alexus

what?

DanielSHaischt

??? <- thats the equivalent for Huh.

Try using complete english sentences! For example I don't understand whether you are requesting an IDE plugin for developing pfSense packages…

i know what huh means…
as to IDE, i just would apreciate if you have some more tools for easier package development... because I alredy have the tested script that i manually added to Advanced Config page, but now I need to put togather a package and i need to learn all your structure and related stuff which i dont really can use anywhere else... so you could of build the tool that would automaticaly generate the package ...

DanielSHaischt

So how would such a tool look like? Are you thinking about an Eclipse plugin for example?

alexus

well Eclipse is more like a compiler, you dont really need tthat advanced one, waht I woud want to see is something like gui where you can add files and directories of your app (like my has 3 files and 1 dir with a 1 file in it) and then add other text config and ability automatically either to submit to common test server or submit for appruval to add to main server. THen if you running Dev version you can view pakages on the common test server

From Wikipedia:

Eclipse (software), a Java integrated development environment (IDE) and platform for rich client applications originally created by IBM

From where did you get the information, that Eclipse is a compiler - Eclipse ships with a custom compiler or you are able to use Java, C/C++ or whatever compiler types from other vendors like Sun.

At the moment I don't know a pfSense developer that may be interested in developing a GUI based application for pfSense package developement.

Nah, I see no need for one. The only thing that we really need to do is document the process a bit better.

alexus

well maybe better docs could help but so far i put aside developing of a pacage and will just do a custom image for myself :-P

After all the help that folks have given so far for this? Seems a bit unfair, no?

alexus

well what can i do?
I just cant get it how to buid the package….

DanielSHaischt

minor corrections:

Wikipedia is wrong about IBM - Eclipse was developed by OTI Labs, Zürich which is a subsidiary of IBM
I didn't want to give the impression that a pfSense GUI for package developement would be necessary

:P

Have you looked at the other packages in the system? It's pretty straight forward.

alexus

yes that what i was doin all day toda…

i got killed when i places xmlrpc on my host, i dono it it had to have only one file but it keeps giving me string error in line 1005 or something like that

I really love such issue reports. I bet the PHP parser didn't give you the error error in line 1005 or something like that. Parsers and compilers are very specific about errors, so would you mind to provide the complete error if you are interested in getting any help?

Most likely a copy and paste error…

alexus

copy paste of the file?
well should it be only one file or more then that?
I looked inside and it referes to other files which are definetly not in the directory
