Yeah, the discussion there is a bit mixed, I'm not sure what everyone is saying.
What you wrote about haxe doing it all... but it's not. The compiler is still just dumb compiler.
There's just a new frontend app to convert hxmls into compiler calls smartly, and haxelib is extended to understand scope.
grepsuzette
@grepsuzette
it's intertwined with haxelib right now, which makes emergence of tools difficult, complicating the job for lix and others. And once there is a frontend + haxec + haxelib it will be even more solidified
Peter Achberger
@Antriel
I don't see it being an issue. If you would want to, you could entirely replace haxe (the frontend) and haxelib, and use only haxec (the compiler).
grepsuzette
@grepsuzette
the last post will be debated I think, but the 2 arguments about haxe_libraries are the one where you should vote, just to signal it is important for somebody
Peter Achberger
@Antriel
So custom tools are possible.
Not sure why nicolas made it a wiki page instead of going through haxe-evolution.

And absolutely no idea what he meant by

This is WIP , please discuss there and don't edit directly ;)

It's not like we can discuss on a wiki page. :D Probably meant discuss here.

I can see one downside for haxe_libraries. It contains copies of the actual compiler arguments. So it is not normalized.
Peter Achberger
@Antriel
Hmm. Good point, that shouldn't be there, rather only lib + version.
Kevin Leung
@kevinresol
that's why they proposed json
Peter Achberger
@Antriel
Which makes the need for individual files a bit weaker.
Hmm.
Well I don't really have strong feelings either way, just liked git diffs for haxe_libraries and really dislike how npm does it.

Is there a way that get lix to work for private repos?
I'm getting an error asking me to Auth (I should already be via git)
Kevin Leung
@kevinresol
you can use the git: protocol if your ssh key is correctly set up
or use --gh-credentials and --gl-private-token through github:/gitlab: protocol
Gabriel Hayes
@piboistudios
Ah thanks
grepsuzette
@grepsuzette
but if you commit this by mistake to github then, big oops... I think better you clone it and then modify the hxml to point to your local path
i don't know exactly how it works with credentials, but the idea scares the shit out of me^^
Kevin Leung
@kevinresol
yes it will be saved in the hxml
so ssh+git is preferred
Gabriel Hayes
@piboistudios
How ironic ;) I was just asking my brother earlier why ever bother with SSH git
grepsuzette
@grepsuzette
ssh git is awesome, if it's your server I think it's the natural solution. But it's only for private projects of course
Kevin Leung
@kevinresol
same for gitlab/github private repos.
Kevin Leung
@kevinresol
when using the git: protocol, what is the syntax to select a branch?
trying lix install git:https://gitlab.com/org/repo#develop, apparently it can resolve the branch's head but somehow unable to switch to it
downloading git:https://gitlab.com/org/repo.git#57a30275b9362746a7aa161140e877e69c6445d6
From https://gitlab.com/org/repo
 * branch            HEAD       -> FETCH_HEAD
fatal: reference is not a tree: 57a30275b9362746a7aa161140e877e69c6445d6
Kevin Leung
@kevinresol
ok apparently lix downloaded the files via http zip, then try to git checkout that commit.
however the correct first step should be a git fetch instead

hello. i've installed lime via lix, using
npm lix install haxelib:lime.
trying to run it with npx lix run lime
but get an error
Error: Could not find haxelib "lime", does it need to be installed? Failed to invoke `haxelib run-dir lime C:\Users\473387\AppData\Roaming/haxe/haxe_libraries/lime/7.8.0/haxelib` because Error: Command failed: haxelib run-dir lime C:\Users\473387\AppData\Roaming/haxe/haxe_libraries/lime/7.8.0/haxelib.
could anyone please explain what am i doing wrong?
npx haxelib install lime works, but i'd love to use the power of lix downloadlater, which obviously will not work
grepsuzette
@grepsuzette
@kro13 I don't know the syntax with npm or npx, or how to use lime.
FWIW personally I use lix directly, e.g. lix scope create, lix install haxelib:xxx, lix --help, lix run yyy.
Kevin Leung
@kevinresol
Which lix version?
Juraj Kirchheim
@back2dos
the following works (prints the lime ASCII-art): mkdir limetest && cd limetest && npm init -y && npm i lix && npx lix scope create && npx lix install haxelib:lime && npx lix lime
kro13
@kro13
thank you for your replies. @back2dos those commands do not work for me with the same error (. probably something with my setup then. @kevinresol lix version is 15.9.0, node version is 10.15.2, OS windows 10, if it matters.
Kevin Leung
@kevinresol
the versions look fine. so yeah probably a setup issue

here is what i've managed to figure out. first of all my global haxe is 3.4.7 which comes with haxelib 3.3.0, which seems to be incapable of performing run-dir. when i use npx haxelib run-dir lime C:\Users\473387\AppData\Roaming\haxe\haxe_libraries\lime\7.8.0\haxelib directly from terminal it uses scoped haxelib 4.0.2 and works fine. however changing @run directive in haxe_libraries\lime.xml does not work and still fails with
Failed to invoke `npx haxelib run-dir lime C:\Users\473387\AppData\Roaming\haxe\haxe_libraries\lime\7.8.0\haxelib
it seems to be running out of scope or something like that. maybe anyone could bring some light here, knowing all above?
kro13
@kro13
updating global haxe is not a desireable option right now(
Juraj Kirchheim
@back2dos
hmm ... seems like the %PATH% set by npx is lost somewhere and then it falls back to your global installation
this may take a while ^^
haxelib run-dir is actually a lix feature anyway ^^
ok, I guess I'll have to uninstall my global lix to see if this reproduces
kro13
@kro13
i'm really grateful for you having time for this. thank you! i'll upgrade my global haxe later today to see if it works as expected, but unfortunately i'll have to roll it back after, so solving this issue would still be great
kro13
@kro13
seems that my previous assumptions were completely wrong. the only way i was able to make lix lime run as expected was to uninstall haxe globally and install lix globally. installing lix locally did not work anyway
kro13
@kro13
i'm afraid to be annoying, but are there any known issues with lix+nme? as one of my projects requires nme, and running it fails for me like this
λ lix nme
The binary nme.ndll is not distrubuted with source code, and is not built for your system yet.
Would you like to build it now Y/n ? >y
Update nme-dev...
nme-dev is up to date
Build binaries...
Failed to invoke `haxelib run-dir nme C:\Users\473387\AppData\Roaming/haxe/haxe_libraries/nme/6.0.58/haxelib` because Error: Command failed: haxelib run-dir nme C:\Users\473387\AppData\Roaming/haxe/haxe_libraries/nme/6.0.58/haxelib
Kevin Leung
@kevinresol
Probably because lime will invoke haxelib ( not npx haxelib)
Maybe that's why you need a global lix

Anyone experienced haxelib run-dir travix ... run node => Failed to call neko because Error: spawnSync neko ENOENT before? Having some trouble running travix on newly installed windows. Global neko seems to work fine through global lix.
