Public predicates

setup/0

Ensures that registries and packs directory structure exists. Preserves any defined registries and installed packs.

setup - one

reset/0

Resets registries and packs directory structure. Deletes any defined registries and installed packs.

Compilation flags:
static
Mode and number of proofs:
reset - one

verify_commands_availability/0

Verifies required shell commands availability. Fails printing an error message if a command is missing.

Compilation flags:
static

Compilation flags:
static
Template:
pin(Resource)
Mode and number of proofs:
pin(+atom) - zero_or_one
Exceptions:
Resource is a variable:
instantiation_error
Resource is neither a variable nor an atom:
type_error(atom,Resource)

pin/0

Pins all resource (packs or registries) preventing them from being updated, uninstalled, or deleted. Note that resources added after calling this predicate will not be pinned.

Compilation flags:
static
Mode and number of proofs:
pin - one

unpin/1

unpin(+atom) - zero_or_one
Exceptions:
Resource is a variable:
instantiation_error
Resource is neither a variable nor an atom:
type_error(atom,Resource)

unpin/0

Unpins all resources (packs or registries), allowing them to be updated, uninstalled, or deleted.

Compilation flags:
static
Mode and number of proofs:
unpin - one

pinned/1

True iff the resource (pack or registry) is defined or installed and if it is pinned.

Compilation flags:
static
Template:
pinned(Resource)
Mode and number of proofs:
pinned(+atom) - zero_or_one
Exceptions:
Resource is a variable:
instantiation_error
Resource is neither a variable nor an atom:
type_error(atom,Resource)

directory/2

Exceptions:
Resource is a variable:
instantiation_error
Resource is neither a variable nor an atom:
type_error(atom,Resource)

readme/2

Returns the path to the resource (pack or registry) readme file (using the internal backend format). Fails if the resource is not defined or installed or if no readme file is found for it.

Compilation flags:
static
Template:
readme(Resource,ReadMeFile)
Mode and number of proofs:
readme(+atom,-atom) - zero_or_one
Exceptions:
