Trying again with Stunt / Improvise

[Chris Norman]

Hi Todd and all,
I'm trying again to do something useful with Stunt / Improvise. I got
it all running on my Pi, and I'm now trying to figure out the package
manager. I get the basic command, @list packages with $composed,
@install whatever with $composed, and @uninstall whatever with
$composed, but nothing seems to install.

When issuing the command @install lambdacore with $composed, it says
it's installinv version 0.0.5, but then nothing else, installing
autoport, because the name made it look useful, I was rewarded with
the following:

@install autoport with $composed
Version "0.0.3" of package "autoport" couldn't be installed because it requires:
#9:@install (this == #9), line 46: Range error
... called from #5:huh (this == #5), line 6
(End of traceback)

What's this all about?

BTW, to run the server, once I'd cloned the improvise repository, I
moved the moo executable file into the improvise directory, and did:
./moo Improvise.db Improvise.db

I've tried running both:
./moo improvise/Improvise.db Improvise.db

and:
../moo Improvise.db Improvise.db

and always with the same results.

Any ideas?

I just want to start building something with rooms I can walk around
in, and then hopefully, make that into something webable, so my users
can either use the web, or a telnet client.

Cheers,

Chris,

The lambdacore package is _huge_ and takes a long time to install.  The speed depends on the speed of the platform, but on a very recent macbook pro it takes ~3-4 minutes.

I'll take a look at the second error.  In general, you can't install autoport without installing lambdacore first, since lambdacore is a dependency.  That's what's it's trying to tell you, but it looks like there is an error in the error reporting.

You may want to try building the database (installing lambdacore) on a different machine and copying it over.  Alternatively, if you're really primarily interested in lambdacore, you may want to just start with the original database.
