godiva − GODI packages made easy

godiva [-localbase dir ] [-patch patch ] [-filesdir dir ] [-refetch] [-nosquash] [-quiet] [-veryquiet] spec

godiva generates a GODI package from a specification file. The specification file is parsed into an internal package representation then emitted as a GODI package. The GODI package is written directly to the GODI installation so it can be immediately tested via godi_console(1).

If the variable GODI_LOCALBASE is found in the environment, it is used. This can be overridden by specifying the -localbase option. In both cases, this must be a full path (starting with ’/’).

This is too much work to document here so you should go look at the documentation at http://projects.phauna.org/GODIVA/docs/manual.html

-localbase dir

Use the specified value for the root directory of the GODI installation. dir must be a full path (starting with ’/’).

-patch patch

Include the given patch in the generated GODI package.

-filesdir dir

Include the given hierarchy of files in the files section of the generated GODI package.

-camlsyntax

This is a hairy hack to allow the use of high-level internal godiva syntax for testing new features without having to update the lexer and parser immediately. Most users won’t need to bother with this.

-refetch

Refetch the distfile instead of using a cached one.

-nosquash

Fail if a package is in the way in the GODI installation.

-quiet

Do not print informational messages.

-veryquiet

Do not print warnings or informational messages.

-version

Displays version information then exits.

-help --help

Displays usage information then exits.

Don’t be silly.
