New installation of vertx attempts to install modules from vert-x.github.com

[Victor Stan]

Hi, I've seen a few related questions and some answers pointing to the fact that GitHub has changed their pages URL from github.com to github.io. However, a new vertx installation 1.3.1 on OSX, for the simple tutorial at http://vertx.io/js_web_tutorial.html continues to attempt to install modules from github.com. I'm not sure what I need to do, when I get this error: 

Attempting to install module vertx.web-server-v1.0 from http://vert-x.github.com:80/vertx-mods/mods/vertx.web-server-v1.0/mod.zip

Failed to download module: 301

Is there something I need to do on my end, or am I using an outdated version of Vertx?

Github changed the domain name

Try

    -repo vert-x.github.io

Thanks,

So to clarify, a more complete answer would sound like this?:

Some vertx modules' configurations are outdated and continue to reference a deprecated github URL. 

Instead of relying on vertx automatic module installation method, you need to run:

vertx install vertx.web-server-v1.0 -repo vert-x.github.io

or for other modules:

vertx install <module-name> -repo vert-x.github.io

I had to manually declare the repo as well, but it would be nice to be able to set this once in a config file so you don't have to repeat that for each module you want to use.   Once I got used to it with Rails development, the Bundler(http://gembundler.com/) tool was very nice.

I've made this topic sticky so it always appear on the top.

We won't be doing any more releases on 1.x, and this is a non-issue in 2.0, so you'll have to use the workaround for 1.x.

I don't understand why vertx doesn't follow the 301. Is that going to be fixed in the 2.0 branch?

As I mentioned in my last post, it's a non-issue in 2.0.

2.0 doesn't use the github module repo.

2.0 doesn't use the github module repo.

Regardless of the repo, 3xx codes serve a useful purpose.

Thanks - I know what a 301 is.

The point is that we're not doing any more releases in 1.x so it won't get fixed there.

I thought you probably did, but it's a public list too. My point was just that, while it may be a low priority issue, it's not a non-issue.

No, it really is a non issue in Vert.x 2.0
