#16259: allow pkg installation via sage -i http://github.com/...tarball.tar.gz ---------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: rws | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: sage-6.2 Component: scripts | Keywords: spkg, installation, http Merged in: | Authors: Reviewers: | Report Upstream: N/A Work issues: | Branch: Commit: | Dependencies: Stopgaps: | ---------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Github projects, when tagged via `git tag`, get automatically packaged (see project page / releases), and the URL has a standardized form, as well as the tarball. So, it would be most convenient if a project like patchbot that adheres to the SPKG directory structure could be installed by just saying {{{ sage -i https://github.com/robertwb/sage-patchbot/archive/2.1.1.tar.gz }}} Sage would then take the `PACKAGE_NAME` from `SPKG.txt`, or it could be given as optional argument to `sage -i`.
