vapoursynth / vsrepo

A simple package repository for VapourSynth

VSRepo

A simple package repository for VapourSynth. It is implemented in a way that keeps no state between invocations and can therefore be pointed at any pre-existing plugin and script directory.

All packages are by default installed to the per user plugin autoload directory and the per user Python site-packages directory. If you're using a portable install of VapourSynth simply use the -p switch.

By default binaries matching the platform Python is running on are installed. This can be overridden by adding -t win32 or -t win64 to the commandline.

Usage

Install plugins and scripts. Identifier, namespace, modulename and name are searched for matches in that order.

vsrepo.py install havsfunc ffms2 d2v

Update all installed packages to the latest version.

vsrepo.py upgrade-all

Fetch latest package definitions.

vsrepo.py update

List all currently installed packages.

vsrepo.py installed

List all known packages. Useful if you can't remember the namespace or identifier.

vsrepo.py available

Remove all files related to a package. Dependencies are not taken into consideration so uninstalling plugins may break scripts.

vsrepo.py uninstall nnedi3

VSRUpdate

VSRUpdate.py has two main purposes. The compile command which combines all the individual package files into one distributable file and update-local which queries the github api and tries to automatically add all new releases.

It's only useful if you want to update or add new packages.

Usage example:

vsrupdate.py update-local -o -g <github token>
vsrupdate.py compile

vsrepo's Issues

Add date field to releases to indicate sort order

Plugin and script name collisions are iffy

Descale is an example of this. The python module and namespace of the plugin is the same. In this case it mostly works out fine since the modulename takes precedence and the script depends on the plugin being installed.

But some day it will fail horribly...

JSON verifier

It would be useful to have a verifier for the JSON to make sure only the allowed values and types of values are present. Probably the easiest way is to simply manually check things in vsrupdate.py.

Uninstall doesn't uninstall dependent packages

Uninstall doesn't remove all packages that also depend on the package being uninstalled. This is probably not expected and definitely should be rectified. Or at least some warnings implemented.

Automatically fetch missing plugins in VS scripts

Adding a hook and some clever guessing should make it possible to have the cython side automatically fetch, install, load and retry a statement where a plugin is missing.

Additional sanity checks

The automated guessing logic has a tendency to fail when 32 bit binaries are discontinued and will then point at the 64 bit binary automatically. This can be solved by checking so the 32 and 64 bit binaries never reference the same dll files.

Upgrade all should be a separate command

Only latest release is used as a template for guessing binary names

"FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified" when attempting to install package

I installed Python 3.7.6 for all users, and then I installed VapourSynth (bundled with VSRepo) into C:\VapourSynth-32. I'm not certain why it cannot find 7z.exe, considering I do have it installed, along with it being copied into PATH.

I am running Windows 7 Professional x86.

Install name not always obvious

I was confused at first that install fluxsmooth is failing and that i need to write install flux

Could the name not also be parsed as a fallback if namespace is not found? Or a additional (optional) field could be added for synonyms.

Properly version things

Things like the package definitions should definitely have a version attached so vsrepo.py can tell the user it needs to be updated.

Update github authentication API

The current method of authentication is being deprecated. Use something else instead.

Feature request: Skip downloading dependencies

It can be handy especially while testing (script) packages if one could download only the package without any dependencies.

Maybe with a --no-dep parameter or --skip-dep

Improving installed view

Currently there is no easy way to find which plugins are not the latest version.
Maybe plugins that are not up to date (or version unknown) could be marked somehow or grouped together.

Easiest way would be marking it with an asterix or so:

Verify package contents before uninstalling old package when upgrading

access_token necessary?

An access_token is not needed to query releases via the github api, why force it?

vsrepo/vsrupdate.py

Line 63 in 22bc328

return 'https://api.github.com/repos/' + s[-2] + '/' + s[-1] + '/releases?access_token=' + args.git_token[0]

This works too https://api.github.com/repos/HomeOfVapourSynthEvolution/VapourSynth-DFTTest/releases

Bug or user fail?

vsrepo says my hash is wrong.
But the 047.. hash is correct! I think vsrepo would be confused because the file name has a .model at the end?

Exception: Hash mismatch for model/model_V8a.model got e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855 but expected 047ff7bfd0b51bdd51c35a6623bebe07c7b925a537ca219c8efd2be80370d683

Also .\vsrupdate.py -p vmaf_models update-local don't really work if I change my version to something else. Had to generate the hashes with my own script.

package:
vmaf_models.zip

Can't install files to subdirectories

Only a problem for waifu2x* plugins which have a pile of other problem with distribution anyway.

Add a URL handler

Add a URL handler so plugins can be selected from a normal website.

For example:
vsrepo://install/havsfunc+otherthing+thirdthing
vsrepo://upgrade/...list...
vsrepo://update
vsrepo://upgrade-all

Obviously all operations would have a confirmation prompt

Add dist-info directories according to PEP376 for scripts.

This makes sure that vsrepo interoperates with any python package management that might theoretically come preinstalled with python.

For example, pip on windows or apt or yum.

https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0376/

Figure out package list update method

Skip pre-releases in vsrupdate?

I think vsrupdate should ignore pre-releases and process only "final releases"
Currently this would be added too:
https://github.com/IFeelBloated/vapoursynth-mvtools-sf/releases/tag/r10_pre

It can be checked with "prerelease": true,
https://api.github.com/repos/IFeelBloated/vapoursynth-mvtools-sf/releases

Uninstall existing package before installing a new one

Do it to avoid leaving junk files lying around. For example when the plugin dll has changed name between releases.

vsrupdate.py can not update directly linked dlls

Check this:

	"type": "VSPlugin",

Portable mode installs some plugins into subfolder

vsrepo.py -p install grain -b asd
This works like it should, addgrain.dll is in asd folder

vsrepo.py -p install w2xc -b asd
w2xc.dll & Waifu2x-w2xc.dll end up in asd/Win64 folder

Path to package definitions must always be writable

OSX and/or Linux support?

OSX is probably more interesting since it's easier to distribute binaries. Opinions and the will to support things welcome.

Report download progress

Maybe a progress bar would be nice to have. Or at least display incremental progress. Preferably without needing to grab extra modules.

External dependencies

There are some plugins like https://github.com/WolframRhodium/VapourSynth-BilateralGPU or waifu2x-caffe that requieres gpu runtimes like cuda, opencl etc.

I don't think that vsrepo should handle these dependencies, but instead show a POST MSG after installing the plugin that this plugin has further dependencies. Something like that.

What do you think?

There's no command like install-all.

Rar support?

There is one plugin in rar archive http://rationalqm.us/hdr/

Don't remove versions if they're deleted from github

Some people like to do this and it means older versions can no longer be identified.

Use SHA256

Only the non-github packages remain. Gradual contributions welcome.

Implement github API scraping

Automatically figure out when a new version is available of a package by looking at the github api.

Possibly add automatic support for adding a new release to the package files as well assuming similar binary archive location.

Why DGHDRtoSDR still stays in 1.12?

http://rationalqm.us/hdr/

It's 1.13 over 8 months.

And now It can't be download with vsrepo.

Add possibility to specify plugin and script destination paths

A very simple question about the usage of vsrepo.py

I installed vapoursynth and I want to install some plugins by vsrepo.py.
But It can't work by the command in doc.
Such as

Is anything wrong? Or I made a stupid mistake?

Add some way to mark packages as discontinued

Some plugins are split into a data package and the actual dll. Like NNEDI3 and waifu2x. When these are combined into one package things become weird since the management doesn't know that the original data package should be uninstalled.

vapoursynth32 folder is generated in portable mode -p on x64 machine

I think this folder should only be generated if one explicitly uses the win32 parameter

JSON Structure

The files and hash keys should probably be merged since the filename is trivially extractable from the in archive path.

g41fun broken

Apparently the script got moved/deleted and can't currently be installed with vsrepo.
Would it be possible to update the link or completely remove the script?

Add ftp upload support to vsrupdate

Remove empty tags from package files

Since I've added the possibility to ignore specific releases on github the actual empty tags in the package files should now be replaced with an entry in the ignore list. See yadifmod for an example. This is boring so I don't want to do it myself.
