Load Dependencies

caps command is used for downloading dependencies declared in deps.cirru. The name "caps" stands for "Calcit Dependencies".

deps.cirru declares dependencies, which correspond to repositories on GitHub. Specify a branch or a tag:

{}
  :calcit-version |0.9.18
  :dependencies $ {}
    |calcit-lang/memof |0.0.11
    |calcit-lang/lilac |main

Run caps to download. Sources are downloaded into ~/.config/calcit/modules/. If a module contains build.sh, it will be executed mostly for compiling Rust dylibs.

To load modules, use :modules configuration in calcit.cirru and compact.cirru:

:configs $ {}
  :modules $ [] |memof/compact.cirru |lilac/

Paths defined in :modules field are just loaded as files from ~/.config/calcit/modules/, i.e. ~/.config/calcit/modules/memof/compact.cirru.

Modules that ends with /s are automatically suffixed compact.cirru since it's the default filename.

Outdated

To check outdated modules, run:

caps outdated
