ksp-ckan / netkan Goto Github PK

If no-one beats me to it, I will amend the netkan file tomorrow.

AntennaRange has an error in NetKAN: the license should be BSD-3-Clause.

TweakableEverything looks correct.

Add VOID:

{
    "spec_version" : 1,
    "identifier"   : "VOID",
    "license"      : "BSD-3-Clause",
    "$kref"        : "#/ckan/kerbalstuff/253"
}

Add QuantumStrutsContinued:

{
    "spec_version" : 1,
    "identifier"   : "QuantumStrutsContinued",
    "license"      : "BSD-2-Clause",
    "$kref"        : "#/ckan/kerbalstuff/168"
}

Thanks!

Crowd Sourced Science doesn't do binaries, just source code, because it only uses Github for easy moderation of submissions

Will this cause an issue?

https://github.com/taraniselsu/TacLifeSupport

Crowd Sourced Science doesn't show up in the CKAN-anyone know why?

It has been pointed out on the forum that KAC is installed in the wrong folder: it should be in GameData/TriggerAU/KerbalAlarmClock, while presently it is in GameData/KerbalAlarmClock.

However the KerbalStuff release is just a copy of the zip posted to github, and thus has the same format:

KerbalAlarmClock.x.x.x.x/GameData/KerbalAlarmClock

Unfortunately to solve this we are going to need either the find keyword (KSP-CKAN/CKAN#376), or a way to install to a subdirectory of GameData (KSP-CKAN/CKAN#315).

I suspect that there may be an issue with my .netkan file, but I don't know of an easy way for me to investigate. I released ContractConfigurator-0.3.0 about 12 hours ago via GitHub, but it hasn't shown up in the CKAN-meta repository. Is there a problem with my .netkan file, or has the bot just not picked up the release yet?

CKAN is awesome, please include my little mod in your index

KerbalAlarmClock and KSPAlternateResourcePanel have no ksp_version configured on kerbalstuff. With following netkan file I get exceptions from netkan, no matter whether I put "ksp_version" in the file or not:

The mod ResourceOverview has "ResourceOverview_1.0.1.1" in the zip as the mods GameData folder. To get the .netkan to work I let it install the mod to "ResourceOverview_1.0.1.1" but I think the intent was for the mod to go into "ResourceOverview".

After having spent a lot of time going through the incompatible mod lists looking for mods that should be updated since they have a .90 release, I have noticed that a lot of mods do not have a homepage, however, I would be willing to be that virtually all mods have a KSP Forum page.

To help improve the meta files, I propose adding a "forum" resource to the same node that has the homepage resource, specifically so mods can have a dedicated link back to their forum posting, and also a link to a homepage, if the mod author wishes to host a homepage somewhere other than the KSP forums.

This is the current metadata for RealismOverhaul.

@NathanKell, @Felger: Right now everything in depends must be installed, and if the user wishes to un-install any of them we must uninstall RealismOverhaul, as it's considered to be irreparably broken without its dependencies. You simply cannot install RO without EngineIgnitor or TACLS.

What should it contain?

Note:

• Depends: Must be installed. Hard requirement.
• Recommends: Installed by default, but user can opt-out.
• Suggests: Not installed by default, but user can opt-in.

The full CKAN spec is here if you need it.

{
"spec_version" : 1,
"identifier" : "EnhancedNavBall",
"$kref" : "#/ckan/kerbalstuff/411",
"x_netkan_license_ok": true
}

ATM is going to give us some issues. Assuming we get permission from @rbray89, ATM has 4 downloads per release (basic / aggressive, 32 / 64 bit).

How can this be accounted for?

{
"spec_version" : 1,
"identifier" : "KerbalWeatherSystems",
"$kref" : "#/ckan/kerbalstuff/262",
"license" : "restricted"
}

I cannot make a PR at this moment, however SilverFox has granted me permission on IRC.

KOSMOS URM apparently depends on the plugin of procedural fairings, and only the plugin.

I suggest we split Procedural Fairings in two packages, ProceduralFairings-core and ProceduralFairings so that other mods can depend on the plugin (exactly like we did with FireSpitter).

One of the mods that would be awesome to have available through CKAN is KSP Interstellar.

The forum page for KSP Interstellar is:
http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/43839

Edit:
I've shot Fractal_UK a PM on the KSP Forums, and I'm waiting on a response back.

{
"spec_version" : 1,
"identifier" : "HullCameraVDS",
"$kref" : "#/ckan/kerbalstuff/450",
"x_netkan_license_ok": true
}

So now that CKAN supports installing into arbitrary subfolders of GameData, I thinks we should be able to go ahead with splitting some mods into multiple parts. One obvious option is to separate the heavy structural parts (HX parts) from the B9 package. I'd like to start a discussion here about the best way to do this. My idea is to create two packages - B9-Core (all the parts except HX) and B9-HX (only the HX parts, depends on B9-Core). Then the main B9 package can simply depend on those two and not provide any content by itself. Not sure if this is the best way to do it though.

Also, I have one perhaps silly idea, and that is to provide a package that installs only the B9 airbrakes and nothing else. B9 seems to be the only mod providing airbrakes (as far as I know) and they are very useful for folks using FAR, because they make spaceplane reentry quite a lot easier. So this could potentially be useful for folks that don't want for whatever reason install the whole B9 package (part clutter, memory constraints, don't like the aesthetics, etc...).

So, anyone have opinions/ideas about this?

If there is some minor defect in the .netkan file (such as a comma before the end of a section), netkan is still able to parse the file and validate it, but then the Travis build will fail when jsonlint is used.

It would be nice to have netkan also validate the json file before accepting it.

The Ultimate goal, everything at http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/55401-Community-Mods-and-Plugins-Library and current available through CKAN.

If no one beats me to it, I would look into this tomorrow.

Hello, I'm JandCandO, the author of the mod Impossible Innovations. I would like to add my mod to the CKAN index.

Here is the file:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-NwmbohginYTkhlbmgxcEp5cDA/view?usp=sharing

If I missed something, let me know :)

Assuming we get permission, B9 has a long list of bundled mods:

• CrossFeedEnabler
• Firespitter (core)
• RasterPropMonitor
• KineTechAnimation
• KlockheedMartian gimbal
• ResGen
• SmokeScreen
• Virgin Kalactic's "Generic" plugin

Update: on the forum thread it's stated that FAR/NEAR are considered requirements:

• FAR
• NEAR

Additionally it also provides a custom config for Hot Rockets, which maybe isn't worth a package on its own.

The following netkan files are failing:

• CrowdSourcedScience (netkan can't process source releases yet)
• EntchenFlag (Mod doesn't even exist on KerbalStuff; did you hit publish at all?)

Attentioning @DuoDex and @hakan42 on this, the former because if we can get an asset attached to the release on github then we can at least index that for now, and the latter because there's a reason we review pull-requests, especial when they're for an author's own mod. :P

Hi!
I just now realized that there is one level too much when my mods are installed via CKAN.

Example:
GameData
. CIT
.. ActiveStruts <- too much
... ActiveStruts
.... [ModContent]

For the CIT-Utils the structure should be:
GameData
. CIT
.. [ModContent]
as well.

This is true for all my CIT packages and breaks the mods which expect a certain path. I don't have access to my dev machine until the weekend so it would be really great if someone could fix the files.
Very sorry for the inconvenience!

I tried the last version on netkan and from command line, it complains this version is not compatible with currently running windows version (??).

system: win 7 64b

steps:
run cmd.exe
go to netkan.exe folder
run netkan.exe (without arguments)

RoversNOthers, AMEG and BiggerLaunchpads specify their license as "Whatever License 1.1" which boils down to "do whatever you want". The license is set to 'restricted' in the netkan files, which prevents MirrorKAN from mirroring them.

The bot refreshes the index about once an hour. However, it seems to assume that only one release has appeared since the last update.

Case study: we missed a FAR release. If you look at the changelog on kerbalstuff, there is a v0.14.4.1 release that hasn't been indexed by the bot. This is because ferram4 has released v0.14.4.1 and v0.14.5 within minutes of each other and the bot only picked up the latest one, ignoring the other one.

Poking @pjf and @AlexanderDzhoganov : we might want to improve the bot's detection of new releases.

Now (spec v1.2) that we can install in subdirectories of GameData, I noticed that KerbalAlarmClock, AlternateResourcePanel, TransferWindowPlanner (and more?) all include his Flags.

• The netkans should be amended to exclude the Flags,
• a seperate netkan that provides only the flags should be created
• the created flag should be referenced from the previous ckans

I was trying to write the file for FASA:

{
    "spec_version" : 1,
    "identifier"   : "FASA",
    "$kref"        : "#/ckan/kerbalstuff/27",

    "depends": [
        { "name": "RasterPropMonitor" }
    ]
}

But trying to validate it with netkan throws the above exception. It appears that the version is not correct, but the one provided on kerbalstuff seems fine.

Please do not merge this file until we have frizzank's approval.

This issue is about the following mods:

• UniversalStorage-ECLSS.netkan
• UniversalStorage-IFI.netkan
• UniversalStorage-KAS.netkan
• UniversalStorage-SNACKS.netkan
• UniversalStorage-TAC.netkan
• UniversalStorage.netkan

The newest release of UniversalStorage (1.0.90.1) combines all of its submods into one package that detects the presence of other mods and enables the specific submods if required.

Trying to install UniversalStorage >= 1.0.90.1 alongside with any other UniversalStorage mods causes a conflict on installation (overwriting files of another mod).

For more information and in case you need feedback from the author, please refer to this thread: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/75129-Universal-Storage-1-0-90-0-%28For-KSP-0-90%29-2nd-January-2015?p=1644627&viewfull=1#post1644627

The MirrorKAN log is full of stack traces where we encounter 404 or 403 HTTP errors.

In those case, the attempted URL should also be printed to make debugging easier.

Is there any blocking condition preventing to have KAS here ?
Some mod depends on it, I see one having a depends on 'KAS' which isn't there, I guess such mod is uninstallable for now.

You might consider correcting the Kerbal Alarm Clock NetKAN entry to install under /TriggerTech/Kerbal\ Alarm\ Clock rather than /Kerbal\ Alarm\ Clock...

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, or if there is a bug. This is the .netkan file I am trying to use (named Guard13007EmpireAgency.netkan):

    }
  ]
}

And when running netkan.exe Guard13007EmpireAgency.netkan I get the following:

Am I doing something wrong or what's going on exactly?

Seems like ImpossibleInnovations has an extra space in the directory name in the install section which prevents it from being installed correctly.

By that I mean that the mod's archive contains a folder "Impossible Innovations" and not "ImpossibleInnovations"
