A curated list of PureScript Lua packages for the spago package manager.

• What is a package-set?
• Add your package
• How do I use package-sets with spago?

A package set is a collection of packages in which there is only one version for each package, and the entire collection of packages compiles successfully together. A package set ensures you can always install a package from the set without introducing a conflict in your dependencies.

If you use a package manager based on package sets, that means that to install a package:

1. The package must be in the package set
2. The package's dependencies and transitive dependencies must also be in the package set

This repository aims to be a good collection of packages you can depend on.

If you would like to add your new package to the package sets, please make a PR.

spago is a package manager and build tool for PureScript which uses Dhall package sets. This makes them easy to extend and override.

With spago the package-set address is specified in the upstream variable of your local packages.dhall, which will usually import a remote packages.dhall, e.g. the one from this repo. You can change the package-set version you are using by running spago upgrade-set, or if you want to point to a particular version, spago upgrade-set --tag <tag>.

[psc-package][psc-package] is a package manager for PureScript that works essentially by running a bunch of git commands. It is not maintained by the PureScript core team and we recommend using Spago instead.

With psc-package the package-set address is set in the source field of a psc-package.json file, which should list the URL of a repository with a packages.json file in the root (such as this one). Your configuration should look something like this:

{
  "name": "project-name",
  "set": "set-name",
  "source": "https://github.com/purescript/package-sets.git",
  "depends": ["aff", "console", "prelude"]
}
