Add qx install from external URL/file #363

Add the following ways to install a library:

This will allow to use libraries from any location. See also https://github.com/qooxdoo/qooxdoo-compiler/issues/279#issuecomment-455765841

so while you are at it ... how about making file://home/user/mylibrary work if it is just a directory

cboulanger commented 5 years ago

https://github.com/qooxdoo/qooxdoo-compiler/pull/366 does it this way: qx contrib install <uri> --from-path path/to/library allows to use a locally stored version of the contrib qx contrib install --from-path path/to/library simply adds an "anonymous" (in terms of the registry) library. This could later be aliased with qx contrib install file:///path/to/library, but that's just syntactic sugar. I am not implementing URL support at this point, since there doesn't seem to be an urgent need for it.

Partially implemented with #366 . https:// installs can go into separate issue, if there is demand.
