Hi all,

I'm starting to think about how to distribute the Context sequencer when

on Deken, but I'm not sure what to do about the external packages.

The best solution to this is currently vapourware.

It would work like Python's requirements.txt, Node's package.json, Ruby's gemspec etc. where you could specify the other packages (externals/abstractions) that your package depends on. This could be done in a pd META patch or a textfile or whatever.

A user can then choose to install those dependencies into the directory of their current patch, or to their pd-externals directory.

As for your situation - I would like the dependencies somewhere obvious and tell the user they will need to install them.

Cheers,

Chris.
