HTTPie on Arch Linux, and derived
Welcome to the documentation about packaging HTTPie for Arch Linux.
- If you do not know HTTPie, have a look here.
- If you are looking for HTTPie installation or upgrade instructions on Arch Linux, then you can find them on that page.
- If you are looking for technical information about the HTTPie packaging on Arch Linux, then you are in a good place.
About
This document contains technical details, where we describe how to create a patch for the latest HTTPie version for Arch Linux. They apply to Arch-derived distributions as well, like ArcoLinux, EndeavourOS, Artix Linux, etc. We will discuss setting up the environment, installing development tools, installing and testing changes before submitting a patch downstream.
Overall process
Note: Sending patches downstream does not seem easy. We failed to find where is located the package file on https://gitlab.archlinux.org. So we are relying on the last maintainer, daurnimator, and it works pretty well so far.
Check https://archlinux.org/packages/community/any/httpie/ and if the version is outdated, simply report it.
Hacking
Left blank on purpose, we will fill that section when we will have access to the downstream repository.
