Hi,
Given a Portfile, I am trying to programmatically find all of its direct
dependencies. My approach is to execute an appropriate TcL script in port-tclsh
to produce a listing of such dependencies. I am able to handle Portfiles with
the example script indicated below, but only for Portfiles that do not have any
subports. It is not clear to me how to handle dependencies for subports. The
structure returned by mportinfo seems to only have a list of subport names, not
their dependencies.
_______________________________________________________
package require macports
mportinit
set mport [mportopen "file:///tmp/testport" [list] [list]]
array unset portinfo
array set portinfo [mportinfo $mport]
mportclose $mport
array set depsdict {depends_build build depends_lib lib depends_run run}
foreach deptype [array names depsdict] {
if {[info exists portinfo($deptype)] && \
[string length $portinfo($deptype)] > 0} \
{
foreach dependency $portinfo($deptype) {
puts "$depsdict($deptype) $dependency"
}
}
}
_______________________________________________________
How can I access the dependencies for the subports?
Is there any developers manual that I could refer to?
Is the API and structures documented anywhere?
Kind regards.
Artur
