request: mac package #466

Open vinbrule opened 4 years ago

vinbrule commented 4 years ago

hi, it would be great if a package for mac is created. I had tried to make the installer but it never works.

andreikop commented 4 years ago

Hi @hvt2 Do you know a sponsor who would donate a macbook for Enki project? ;)

This project is not actively supported now. I'm working on new version. Hope to have it packaged for Mac sometimes.

I used https://checkout.macincloud.com/ to work on some OS X packaging, and it worked pretty well. I rented for just one month, which was all I needed. I think it was <$50.

thanks @andreikop , maybe this help https://github.com/features/actions, now it provides free minutes for macos CD/CI for open source project. Give me some starter instruction and I can make the script, even for the future version you mention

vinbrule commented 4 years ago

@andreikop if the new version is open-source, i can help you to implement some feature, such as language server client for it

andreikop commented 4 years ago

Sure it is open source. I got disappointed in PyQt performance, stability and packaging issues and now making pure-cpp version. See here and here

vinbrule commented 4 years ago

That is great @andreikop . It looks like the second link to enki-ng is private. For make mac package using Qt, it's much easier and I can help with that for sure.

andreikop commented 4 years ago

I've opened access to it. And created REAME so it will be easier to built it. @hvt2 , you are welcome.

If it is possible to make also a windows executable for new enki Thanks

andreikop commented 4 years ago

I'll try to make when the project is ready for usage

dglent commented 4 years ago

Ok thanks The current enki editor in python is an excellent editor and even if i have tried other editors (like pycharm) i came back to enki. The performance is very good, and i don't have any stability issue and it does what i want. The only problem is that i work in Windows environment and it is not easy to spread it to colleagues because there is no installer now. There is also a characteristic that would help to spread enki is to show the available methods of an object as we have in IDLE when we type the dot and then tab but i don't know if this would be possible.

I compiled in Linux the enki-ng, it seems that will be exactly as the current editor and this is cool, nice work !

@dglent , I'm happy to read your comment. enki-ng will probably have a little less features. I'm dropping what seeps to be useless. It will definitely be quicker, more stable and better portable!

And regarding dot completion - it should be possible. Language servers exist for many languages which do the hard job of code analysis.
