How a package is to be installed. More...

Public Attributes

	Move the package's files into the store rather than copying them.
std::string	name

bool	replace { false }
	Replace an existing record of the same name.

Detailed Description

How a package is to be installed.

A package carries its own name; these are the overrides. Nothing here names an origin, because installing from a package is what "published from this machine" means.

Member Data Documentation

move_files

bool Mila::Distribution::InstallOptions::move_files { true }

Move the package's files into the store rather than copying them.

On by default. A move is free on one volume, and it keeps a single integrity model in which the path is the digest – a copy leaves a second, unmanaged copy of a file that may be several gigabytes. Turn it off to keep the package for a hub upload.

replace

bool Mila::Distribution::InstallOptions::replace { false }

Replace an existing record of the same name.

Off by default. A name is unique across the store, so installing over one is either a refresh the caller meant or a collision they need to know about, and the store cannot tell which.
