How to tag files with multiple platform binaries? #90

Open peterjc opened 8 years ago

hexylena commented 8 years ago

Hmm. We tag all for multiple architectures, but nothing for multi-platform.

Can you elaborate on the use case a bit?

peterjc commented 8 years ago

This is not so common - the only example which immediately comes to mind is SNNS which I just added recently, see 82a541b221e640ef9d0310cc402d819e2b6bbdb7 and the comment. Although this release only included binaries for Linux x64, from the folder naming convention the author presumably has also included Linux 32 bit binaries as well in the past.

hexylena commented 8 years ago

Ah, just multiple architectures, then all is used there.

For things like scripts which are cross arch + cross platform, I think we've used src all in the past.

peterjc commented 8 years ago

I saw this was used for JAR files and followed this in https://github.com/galaxyproject/cargo-port/commit/4d6b36e8992b268aedfbb94fc8d9c38cd589b3e6

So basically use src for multiple OS (even if not really source code), and all for multiple CPU arch?

hexylena commented 8 years ago

Yep, precisely.

We could add another tag all or so for the OS if need be, but it isn't really used anywhere, since almost no one (that we know of) consumes urls.tsv.

peterjc commented 8 years ago

Although these values do appear in the filenames used on the public depot URLs...

Concrete example, PhyML provides a ZIP file containing pre-compiled binaries for 32 bit Windows, 32 bit Linux, 64 bit Linux, and 64 bit Mac OS X:

$ curl -L -O http://www.atgc-montpellier.fr/download/binaries/phyml/PhyML-3.1.zip
$ unzip PhyML-3.1.zip

PhyML-3.1/PhyML-3.1_macOS-MountainLion: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
$ ./PhyML-3.1/PhyML-3.1_macOS-MountainLion --version

. This is PhyML version 20120412.

We could add a bin all, if there is something quite so undesirable about src in URLs. That would be a trivial change.
