NAME

App::Pinto::Command::add - add local archives to the repository

VERSION

version 0.049

SYNOPSIS

pinto --root=REPOSITORY_ROOT add [OPTIONS] ARCHIVE_FILE ...
pinto --root=REPOSITORY_ROOT add [OPTIONS] < LIST_OF_ARCHIVE_FILES

DESCRIPTION

This command adds local distribution archives to the repository. Then it recursively pulls all the distributions that are necessary to satisfy their prerequisites.

When locating packages, Pinto first looks at the the packages that already exist in the local repository, then Pinto looks at the packages that are available on the upstream repositories.

COMMAND ARGUMENTS

Arguments to this command are paths to the distribution archives that you wish to add. Each of these files must exist and must be readable.

You can also pipe arguments to this command over STDIN. In that case, blank lines and lines that look like comments (i.e. starting with "#" or ';') will be ignored.

COMMAND OPTIONS

--author NAME

Set the identity of the distribution author. The NAME must be alphanumeric characters (no spaces) and will be forced to uppercase. Defaults to the user specified in your ~/.pause configuration file (if such file exists). Otherwise, defaults to your current login username.

--dryrun

Go through all the motions, but do not actually commit any changes to the repository. Use this option to see how the command would potentially impact the stack.

--message=TEXT

-m TEXT

Use TEXT as the revision history log message. If you do not use --message option, then you will be prompted to enter the message via your text editor. Use the EDITOR or VISUAL environment variables to control which editor is used. A log message is not required whenever the --dryrun option is set, or if the action did not yield any changes to the repository.

--norecurse

-n

Do not recursively pull distributions required to satisfy the prerequisites of the added distributions.

--pin

Pins all the packages in the added distributions to the stack, so they cannot be changed until you unpin them. The pin does not apply to any prerequisites that are pulled in for this distribution. However, you may pin them separately with the pin command, if you so desire.

--stack NAME

Puts all the packages onto the stack with the given NAME. Defaults to the name of whichever stack is currently marked as the default stack. Use the stacks command to see the stacks in the repository.
