1 year ago Whoops, I meant to do the whole PR thing, but I accidentally committed the new Makefile straight to the main branch. Ah, well; it's a small change.
While I'm here, I should mention that I also fixed a typo in make-config.sh. (The last entry was missing an id key.)
Update Sandboxed Switch Config to work off of
.opamfilesIt has come to our attention that we don't actually need to be using the
opam-lockutility for our build config. Whoops!opam-lock, it turns out, does the same thing as apip freeze: it takes a workingopamproject and creates an Opam file for it (with the.opam.lockedextension) consisting of the original.opamfile with every version of every package locked down to its exact current version, plus all transitive dependencies.That is unnecessary for current purposes. Our
dune-projectconfiguration generates.opamfiles, and we can build sanboxed switches from those directly.Two Tasks
For this issue, the goal is to:
Makefilefor the project to includemake depsandmake sandboxtargetsdoc/sandboxing.mdso that it mentions these new make targets and omits all the complicated stuff involvingopam-lockmake depsMirroring the design of
spinup, themake depsrule will install all dependencies for the project to the current opam switch. This is a useful command to have lying around when you want to do dev work on this project without having to create an entire switch (which means waiting for a fresh OCaml compiler to build).make sandboxAlso mirroring the design of
spinup, themake sandboxrule will create a sandboxed switch in which the DLDC Opam repository is available, and which contains the latest OCaml compiler, plus Prelude, plus all of Attachment Converter's library dependencies from theopamrepositories, and nothing else.
