Subject: Does not install programs
Net::Hiveminder does not install its programs (braindump, etc...). I don't know if this is intentional, but they sure look handy. Something like this would fix it but Net::HM's Module::Install appears to be incomplete. --- Makefile.PL (revision 54261) +++ Makefile.PL (local) @@ -15,6 +15,10 @@ build_requires 'Test::More'; +install_script 'bin/braindump'; +install_script 'bin/hm'; +install_script 'bin/sync_tasks'; + auto_install; WriteAll;

It is intentional. Most of these (especially the new ones I added: todo, create, done) are very generically named. On one hand, I do want people to use these scripts. But I don't want to thrash anyone's existing programs. Prefixing "hm-" to everything would do it, but then people who want to run just "todo" would have to type extra stuff. Maybe that'd be okay, since git does it. So as a compromise: for now I install nothing. I've renamed bin/ to examples/ so that's clearer. Show quoted text

Weird, adding these lines does seem to install the programs correctly. Shawn

braindump and hm seem fine. Maybe change sync_tasks to "hmsync"? Show quoted text

Look at it this way. If you don't install them most folks are never even going to know they exist. If you do install them folks can alias or symlink them if they don't like the name. Or just ask the user. Show quoted text

If installed from a CPAN shell people never even see the examples directory. Show quoted text

Maybe there's some magic "rebuild Module::Install" environment flag that I don't have. -- 39.

I decided to be like git and prefix everything with hm-. That way new commands are discoverable with tab completion, and I'm very unlikely to stomp on existing programs. Show quoted text

Hm. I think when I added install_script, Module::Install pulled Module::Install::Scripts into inc. Resolving this one. Thanks for being steadfast, installing the scripts was the way to go. :) Shawn
