A Package Repository for Mudlet

This Github repository hosts packages made for the Mudlet MUD client. It is also home to the development of mpkg, a command line interface for managing packages used in Mudlet which helps you install, remove, search and update packages from the Mudlet command line.

Installation

mpkg comes preinstalled on later (4.20+) versions of Mudlet. If you do not have it, consider upgrading or issue this command on any profile you wish to use mpkg with.

lua installPackage("https://mudlet.github.io/mudlet-package-repository/packages/mpkg.mpackage")

Then on the command line you can issue any of the following commands.

Commands:
  mpkg install          -- install/upgrade a package
  mpkg list             -- list all installed packages
  mpkg remove           -- remove an existing package
  mpkg search           -- search for a package
  mpkg show             -- show detailed information about a package
  mpkg update           -- update package listing from repository

Submit a Package

Have you created a package you wish to share? There are two methods to get your package added to this repository.

via the Package Website

Visit the main package website (https://packages.mudlet.org) and follow the links to upload.

via Github Method

Contribute your mpackage using Github's "fork and pull request" method

• create a fork and clone the repository,
• copy your mpackage to the cloned repository subdirectory packages/ (no further files need to be changed, Github workflows take care of rebuilding the repository index),
• commit, push and submit a pull request.

Development

Using Docker, run ./mpkg/muddle or run Muddler manually to generate the new ./mpkg/build/mpkg.mpackage file can be loaded into Mudlet as a module.

New mpkg release

To make a new mpkg release, bump the version in mpkg/mfile and the rest will happen automatically.
