Update for publishing on MELPA #29

Open dalanicolai opened 4 years ago

dalanicolai commented 4 years ago

I have implemented the, I hope final, requirements as requested in your pull request #4268 for publishing the package to MELPA. Could you please create another pull request for publishing to MELPA? I am happy to apply any further updates to meet any further requirements. Also I am happy to create the pull request but I need the rights to do that.

I am also willing to fork this repository and create the pull request for publishing, but the MELPA contributing guidelines state that they only publish original repositories of the authors of the packages (with very few exceptions).

I hope you find time to reply to my request. Otherwise I hope you are okay with it if I try to publish a fork of this repository because your package is awesome!

Any updates on this? @dalanicolai maybe it's time to make a fork

dalanicolai commented 2 years ago

@etyurkin Ah well, my fork is available here of course, which I guess is already quite a bit a nicer version than the version in this repo. The problem about publishing on Melpa, is that it would require a maintainer. I am not using my fork, and I am not planning to maintain it.

Also, I am not sure how familiar you are with org, but I would recommend to start with creating your 'wiki/notes' in a single org-file (maybe just call it wiki.org). Then after you have tried/worked like that, and you are still missing something, then only I would have another look at this repo (or better my fork). Finally, there are alternatives of course also, like org-roam. It is hard to decide on a 'information management system'. So again, I would recommend you start with a single big wiki file first, and later decide what you are still missing.

If you are coming from zim, there is a conversion package for it available somewhere on the web...

Thank you @dalanicolai, I'll check your fork. I've been using org-wiki for several years, two things I'm missing are encrypted pages and melpa-based updates.

org-roam looks interesting, never heard of it before, I will give it a try.

Thanks!
