stackage-server

Server for stable, curated Haskell package sets

This repo is part of the Stackage project, and the live server can be viewed at https://www.stackage.org.

Inside the config directory, there are two files ending in -sample. They should be copied to remove the -sample suffix for the site to work. We do it this way to avoid accidentally committing real database credentials into the Git repository.

How to upload a snapshot bundle to your own instance of stackage-server

You can upload snapshots to your own instance of stackage-server using stackage-curator. Here's how:

Start your instance (e.g. run stackage-server Development)

In a browser:

• Log into your instance
• Navigate to http://your-stackage-server/profile
• Take note of both your username and auth token

Edit your config/settings.yaml. Make sure your username is listed as an admin user, e.g.

admin-users:  
- danburton

Restart your stackage-server instance if you changed its config/settings.yaml

In a terminal:

• Set the STACKAGE_AUTH_TOKEN environment variable to your auth token
• run stackage-curator upload your-snapshot.bundle --server-url http://your-stackage-server
