Register IRON account

[Bernd Schoeller]

Hi,

Next step to get Algae out: I would like to publish it on IRON and for
that register an account.

But when I go to https://iron.eiffel.com/account/?register, I get a
"Resource not found." error.

Anybody able to help?

Bernd

PS: I am not sure if I have created an account there before.

I ran across the correct link elsewhere there:

https://iron.eiffel.com/repository/account/?register

Hi, Thanks to Bernd, I realized the link on the main page was wrong.

This is now fixed.

And yes, https://iron.eiffel.com/repository/account/?register is the correct link.

Hi,

Out of curioosity, I just tried, never having set an account there before.

I got that very message, clicked "Account", dismissed something and then could proceed with account details. It seems to work properly.

Yes, fixed by Jocelyn ...

Silly me—deleted those prior posts for stupid error I made.

ALSO:

• I figured out (from Bernd's *.iron package) how to get the package built.
• I figured out that the iron.exe fails on archive, but I created my own ZIP file and it finally worked.
• I see that I can do the management of the package in the IRON repo from the server interface itself--so no need to continue with iron.exe except in creation or in automation (locally)
• I also figured out how to use the "delete" (instead of remove).

The package is now out there and I will get it updated to the full so it works.

Still not sure if everyone is happy with ZIP files from a Windows box or not in IRON packages.

Cheers,

Larry

And the delete looks like ...

[Larry Rix]

Apparently, my ZIP archive is not friendly with Eiffel Studio. My IRON package showed up in ES, but when I attempted to bring it over it failed. I presume it failed in the archive process for the same reason the iron.exe failed to build the archive in the first place?

True? No?

[Larry Rix]

Why? I think this is the same thing I experienced from the ES GUI, yes? I created my own ZIP archive because the iron.exe failed to create its own. I probably did not get the archive correct, yes?

[Jocelyn Fiat]

The local iron client, is using specific "tar" and "bzip2" executable included in the EiffelStudio delivery.

I am wondering if another "tar" was used during your package creation.

Because when I try to install your json_ext package, I guess something like

....\archives\https___iron_eiffel_com_18_07\json_ext__8DA73005-5790-42CE-868D-8651160FDD64 => C:\dev\temp\iron_18.07\packages\json_ext\archive.tar.bz2
     1 file copied
bzip2.exe": archive.tar.bz2 is not a bzip2 file.
"..../spec/win64/bin/tar.exe": This does not look like a tar archive
"..../spec/win64/bin/tar.exe": Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
ERR=2
Deleting .....\packages\json_ext\archive.tar.bz2
     1 file deleted

Holy cats! ... what a job to find how to operate tar in windows!

tar -cvf .\Users\LJR19\Documents\GitHub\archive.tar ".\Users\LJR19\Documents\GitHub\json_ext"

1. I had to replace the "C:" with a "." (relative path, removing the C:)
   
2. The same is true for the "archive.tar" file it produced.

So, now I have capacity to make a tar file and assume it just needs to be uploaded to the IRON repo, yes?

[Woland's Cat]

Install and use cygwin and forget horrors like powershell and the windows file system . It is a great pain-reliever ;)

[Alexander Kogtenkov]

An alternative to cygwin is WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) that is part of Windows for quite a bit now.

You don't need to do that yourself, did you tried

iron share update --username <your_id> --password <your_password> --repository https://iron.eiffel.com/18.07 "C:\Users\LJR19\Documents\GitHub\json_ext\package.iron" --package-name "json_ext"


it should use the tar and bz2 provided with EiffelStudio, so no issue of not using the expected tar.





Also, please name the iron file "package.iron" instead of "json_ext.iron" .




Hope this helps,
