Build a PacletSite in this github repository #37

Closed rnotlnglgq closed 3 years ago

rnotlnglgq commented 3 years ago

With this improvement, users can simply write PacletInstall["MaTeX"] to fetch the newest and compatible version of MaTeX after executing PacletSiteRegister@"https://github.com/szhorvat/MaTeX/raw/master".

Put all paclets in the /Paclets/ directory, and export the PacletSite[Paclet[Name->..., ...], ...] expression as ZIP to /PacletSite.mz, then everything will be OK.

You can use the PutSiteInfo[] function to conveniently create PacletSite.mz in this paclet: PacletInstall["WolframPacletSiteManager", "Site"->"https://github.com/rnotlnglgq/WolframPacletSiteManager/raw/master"] .

I would prefer to avoid maintaining my own private paclet server. MaTeX is actually already on this paclet server (and will be updated there soon): https://paclets.github.io/PacletServer/

I believe Wolfram Research has been working on an official paclet repository for quite a while now. When it is released, I will definitely submit MaTeX there.

It would be best not to live in a world where each project runs its own private paclet server. That would not provide much of an advantages over just publishing the .paclet files on GitHub Releases.
