[Installer] Add SQLite #58

Open coolaj86 opened 3 years ago

coolaj86 commented 3 years ago

Add SQLite

The world's most popular database (on pretty much every phone and computer in one form or another).

We can split this into multiple tasks, which can be done by different people:

  1. Create releases.js. This appears to be the releases "API": https://sqlite.org/download.html Is there something better? To accomplish this you'll need to know basic JavaScript and RegExp (for scraping the HTML).
  2. Create the install.sh (follow instructions below)
  3. Create the install.ps1 (follow instructions below)
  4. Create Cheat Sheet.

Parts 2 and 3 could be as simple as copying `_example and doing a find and replace on a few file system path names.

How to create a webi installer

Video Tutorial: How to create a webi Installer

Skills required

Steps

  1. Clone and setup the webi packages repo
    git clone git@github.com:webinstall/packages.git
    pushd packages/
    npm install
  2. Copy the example template and update with info from Official Releases: https://github.com/___CHANGE/ME___/releases
    rsync -av _example/ CHANGE-ME/
    • [ ] update CHANGE-ME/release.js to use the official repo
    • [ ] Learn how CHANGE-ME unpacks (i.e. as a single file? as a .tar.gz? as a .tar.gz with a folder named CHANGE-ME?)
    • [ ] find and replace to change the name
      • [ ] update CHANGE-ME/install.sh (see bat and jq as examples)
      • [ ] update CHANGE-ME/install.ps1 (see bat and jq as examples)
  3. Needs an updated tagline and cheat sheet
    • [ ] update CHANGE-ME/README.md
      • [ ] official URL
      • [ ] tagline
      • [ ] Switch versions
      • [ ] description / summary
      • [ ] General pointers on usage (and perhaps "gotchas")

It's also okay to have multiple people work on part of this (i.e. the Cheat Sheet can be done independently from the install.sh)

Are you comfortable creating something that scrapes the SQLite download page? Or finding some other way to get release info?
