2008-08-05dload.c : drop the specific handling of file: url.Xavier Chantry1-15/+0
Before commit fc48dc31, file:/// urls forced the use of the internal downloader (libdownload), because the default XferCommand, wget, does not handle them. We tried to move away from forcing usage of libdownload, so this commit implemented the handling of file:/// urls manually. However, this implementation is way too basic. It does not handle the progress bar, thus nothing at all appears in pacman's output when a file: repo is synchronized, or when a file is downloaded from a sync repo. Also, it is not able to detect when the repo is already up-to-date. When libdownload was used, both were handled. It seems better to just drop this implementation for now. All users who use libdownload will get the much better file:// handling back. For the users of XferCommand, it will be more problematic, but they have several options: 1) Switch to a downloader handling file:// (wget doesn't, but curl does for example). 2) Drop the file:// repo, and set up light http or ftp servers instead. Consider that going that way would make this repo available for the whole local network, which can be useful. 3) Switch back to libdownload, which works perfectly for many users.

2008-06-04Use correct C type for file sizesDan McGee1-3/+3
We have been using unsigned long as a file size type for a while, which works but isn't quite correct and could easily break. Worse was probably our use of int in the download callback functions, which could be restrictive for packages > 2GB in size. Switch all file size variables to use off_t, which is the preferred type for file sizes. Note that at least on Linux, all applications compiled against libalpm must now be sure to use large file support, where _FILE_OFFSET_BITS is defined to be 64 or there will be some weird issues that crop up.

2008-04-19Give libalpm native support for both libdownload and libfetchDan McGee1-2/+19
This should remove the need for any additional patching to run on platforms that have libfetch available but not libdownload. It isn't the prettiest, but we have kept our libdownload impact down to just a few files, so it can be easily done. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2008-04-06Allow disabling of internal (libdownload) codeDan McGee1-27/+45
Add a new --disable-internal-download flag to configure allowing the internal download code to be skipped. This will be helpful on platforms that currently don't support either libdownload or libfetch (such as Cygwin) and for just compiling a lighter weight pacman binary. This was made really easy by our recent refactoring of the download code into separate internal and external functions, as well as some error code cleanup.

2008-03-23memleak fix: ensure we free result of get_destfile()Dan McGee1-6/+5
In the file:// download case, we didn't free the return from get_destfile() after we were done with it. Fix it. (Found with xfercommand001.py) Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2008-03-09Refactoring of the download code.Chantry Xavier1-279/+307
This should be the main step in the download refactoring initiated by commit 81a2a06818d367f8528c74311171417beb9e1592. The stub functions introduced by that commit were implemented. The big download code was mostly composed of two steps, and so it has been naturally splitted in two functions : download_external and download_internal file:/// urls are now handled manually, instead of forcing the use of the internal downloader. Thanks to Dan for fixing the remaining issues and cleaning up the patch :) Signed-off-by: Chantry Xavier <shiningxc@gmail.com>
2008-02-27Start removing some junk from the function templateDan McGee1-21/+6
I screwed up originally when I accepted the TotalDownload patch, 8ec27835f40e3df1ce409bc3d913587c474a30c3. I didn't realize how deeply it modified libalpm and I probably shouldn't have let it do what it did. This commit reverts much of what that patch added in order to clean up our internal function calls. We can find another way to do it right down the road here but for now it has to go.

2008-02-24Remove pmserver_t abstractionDan McGee1-61/+30
Remove what was a pretty weird abstraction in the libalpm backend. Instead of parsing server URLs as we get them (of which we don't usually use more than a handful anyway), wait until they are actually used, which allows us to store them as a simple string list instead. This allows us to remove a lot of code, and will greatly simplify the continuing refactoring of the download code. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2008-02-24Add new stub download functions for use throughout the codeDan McGee1-18/+35
Add new stub functions that work by calling the existing (terrible) download forreal function, which needs a serious overhaul. Hide the existing functions and switch all former users to the new functions. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2008-02-24Move download code out of server.cDan McGee1-0/+422
This is the first in what will be a series of patches to clean up the current download code in libalpm. Start by moving download code out of server.c and into download.c. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
