Hello! I hope I won't do anything wrong with posting this, I have never posted files here. I would like to share with phPKG. This is a set of scripts (you can call it a MOD, however it doesn't modify anything ) that allows you to retrieve packages list from a repository (including new packages and updates) and to install them (something like EasyMod). It will (as for now) use FTP and some other things to setup MODs properly. If you ever have used Debian or Ubuntu, you could see some similarities to apt-get system. I would like you to check it out - there could be some errors, but it does work well in my home system (Ubuntu) and few servers I tested it on (Debian, Gentoo and PLD). It should work on Win32, however I didn't test it (i don't have one ) - you only need to select TAR CLASS as method of unpacking files.

Installation is quite simple - you just have to copy all files and add (and enable) ACP module. It will setup its directories and configs at first run. Then you have to configure your FTP. Later, retrieve packages list from repository (PHP repository server code will go public with release version of phPKG) and install as many packages as you like.

dev3: Now, since dev3 you are also able to install any valid MOD (with MODX file), given in ZIP or TAR.GZ format. The SQL issues has also been fixed, I hope. Try it out.

As for now (26.08) there are following MODs in repository:

Sort by topic time

Welcome PM on First Login

Clickable rows

Graphical User Agent

Post User Agent

Textual User Agent in Viewtopic

Graphical User Agent in Viewtopic

Graphical User Agent Stats in Viewprofile

If you want to see it before use, there are few screens:

main screen new - dev3

versions screen new - dev3

repository update

repositories list

config - methods

config - FTP

packages list new - dev3

package info

package install requirements

installation summary

installation progress

some packages suggest other

TODO list for next release (I could split it into few releases if anybody would be interested in):

checking versions from multiple repos when updating

other upload/download methods

conflicts

requires versions, recommended requires (xx|yy)

fixes and modifications to interface

feedback

automagic update

remove, update

modification table for each file

much better error handling

use of "automagically installed" marker

separate configuration from packager (different auth levels?)

(already done - but not released yet - items are in bold)

And now, the best part - download:

dev3 as ZIP file

dev3 as TAR/GZ file

edit: you can also visit project's SF.net site:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpkg/

I look forward to your opinions.

It does require PHP5.
Some hints on enabling PHP5 on your server can be found in Internet and in this topic.

If you are expecting this error:

Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_OLD_FUNCTION' or `T_FUNCTION' or `T_VAR' or `'}'' in XXX\pkg\bb3phpkg.php on line 27

Code (markup):

then please remember that IT DOES REQUIRE PHP5.
