## Installing
To add the repository put this before the call to `package-initialize`
in your `init.el` file.
<!-- <script src="https://gist.github.com/1679158.js"> </script> -->
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("melpa" . "http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/") t)
Please read about [known issues](#known-issues) below before
attempting to install multiple packages at once.
### Customizations
There is currently no way in `package.el` to exclude or include versions. So to remedy this there is a `melpa.el` package--available in MELPA--that will allow you to enable only certain packages or exclude certain packages. You can install the package manually by pasting this into yoru `*scratch*` buffer and evaluating it.
(progn
(switch-to-buffer
(url-retrieve-synchronously
"https://raw.github.com/milkypostman/melpa/master/melpa.el"))
(package-install-from-buffer (package-buffer-info) 'single))
You can then customize two variables:
`package-archive-enable-alist`
: Optional Alist of enabled packages used by `package-filter'.
The format is (ARCHIVE . PACKAGE ...), where ARCHIVE is a string
matching an archive name in `package-archives', PACKAGE is a
symbol of a package in ARCHIVE to enable.
If no ARCHIVE exists in the alist, all packages are enabled.
`package-archive-exclude-alist`
: Alist of packages excluded by `package-filter'.
The format is (ARCHIVE . PACKAGE ...), where ARCHIVE is a string
matching an archive name in `package-archives', PACKAGE is a
symbol of a package in that archive to exclude.
Any specified package is excluded regardless of the value of
`package-archive-enable-alist'
## Known Issues
**Note:** *This fix are included in the `melpa.el` package.*
There is a small bug in Emacs24's `package.el` the order for
dependencies comes out backwards for what I needed. the problem is
patched by some *advice*.
<!-- <script src="https://gist.github.com/1679232.js"> </script> -->
(defadvice package-compute-transaction
(before
package-compute-transaction-reverse (package-list requirements)
activate compile)
"reverse the requirements"
(setq requirements (reverse requirements))
(print requirements))
## Updating Packages
`package.el` now includes a mechanism to upgrade packages. After running `package-list-packages`, type *u* (mark Upgradable packages) and then *x* (eXecute the installs and deletions). When it's done installing all the packages it will ask if you want to delete the obsolete packages and so you can hit *y* (Yes).
If you run into a problem installing or upgrading, you may need to go into your `~/.emacs.d/elpa/` directory and delete packages that are installed multiple times. This can happen when the install times out (see [Known Issues](#known-issues)).
## Development
[https://github.com/milkypostman/melpa](https://github.com/milkypostman/melpa)
Contributions are welcome. Currently, the builder only supports
packages using git, subversion, mercurial, and darcs. This covers
most of the packages that I am interested in.
