pony-stable

A simple dependency manager for the Pony language.

Too many ponies to keep track of?

Put them in a stable and make your life easier.

Installation

Ubuntu Linux using a DEB package (via Launchpad PPA)

For Ubuntu Linux (Trusty, Xenial, Artful, Bionic, Cosmic), the release builds are packaged and available on Launchpad PPA (ponylang/ponylang).

To install builds via Apt:

add-apt-repository ppa:ponylang/ponylang
apt-get update
apt-get install pony-stable

Debian Linux using a DEB package (via Bintray)

For Debian Linux, the release builds are packaged and available on Bintray (pony-language/ponyc-debian).

To install builds via Apt (and install Bintray's public key):

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys D401AB61 DBE1D0A2

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -V install pony-stable

macOS

brew install pony-stable

Linux using an RPM package (via COPR)

For Red Hat, CentOS, Oracle Linux, Fedora Linux, or OpenSuSE, the release builds are packaged and available on COPR (ponylang/ponylang).

Using yum for Red Hat, CentOS, Oracle Linux and other RHEL compatible systems:

yum copr enable ponylang/ponylang epel-7
yum install pony-stable

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1581675 for why epel-7 is required on the command line.

Using DNF for Fedora Linux:

dnf copr enable ponylang/ponylang
dnf install pony-stable

Using Zypper for OpenSuSE Leap 15:

zypper addrepo --refresh --repo https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/ponylang/ponylang/repo/opensuse-leap-15.0/ponylang-ponylang-opensuse-leap-15.0.repo
wget https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/ponylang/ponylang/pubkey.gpg
rpm --import pubkey.gpg
zypper install pony-stable

Using Zypper for OpenSuSE Tumbleweed:

zypper addrepo --refresh --repo https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/ponylang/ponylang/repo/opensuse-tumbleweed/ponylang-ponylang-opensuse-tumbleweed.repo
wget https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/ponylang/ponylang/pubkey.gpg
rpm --import pubkey.gpg
zypper install pony-stable

Arch Linux

pacman -S pony-stable

From Source

You will need ponyc in your PATH.

From Source (Unix):

git clone https://github.com/ponylang/pony-stable
cd pony-stable
make
sudo make install

From Source (Windows):

git clone https://github.com/ponylang/pony-stable
cd pony-stable
make.bat

You will then need to add pony-stable\bin to your PATH.

Make a project with dependencies.

GitHub

mkdir myproject && cd myproject

stable add github jemc/pony-inspect

echo '
use "inspect"
actor Main
  new create(env: Env) =>
    env.out.print(Inspect("Hello, World!"))
' > main.pony

GitLab

mkdir myproject && cd myproject

stable add gitlab jemc/pony-inspect

echo '
use "inspect"
actor Main
  new create(env: Env) =>
    env.out.print(Inspect("Hello, World!"))
' > main.pony

Local git project

mkdir myproject && cd myproject

stable add local-git ../pony-inspect --tag=1.0.2

echo '
use "inspect"
actor Main
  new create(env: Env) =>
    env.out.print(Inspect("Hello, World!"))
' > main.pony

The git tag is optional.

Local (non-git) project

mkdir myproject && cd myproject

stable add local ../pony-inspect

echo '
use "inspect"
actor Main
  new create(env: Env) =>
    env.out.print(Inspect("Hello, World!"))
' > main.pony
