lpm

Live package manager.. cof.. cof...

Actually just a simple command line tool to install max4live devices out of zip files.

About

lpm is very inspired by npm, the node management system which is inspired by many other cool package managers.

Docs

Have fun. :)

## Installing

First you need Node.js then:

npm install -g lpm
## Usage 
lpm midi       [/path/to/a/zip/file]
# download and unzip the file into your Max for live midi folder
lpm instrument [/path/to/a/zip/file]
# download and unzip the file into your Max for live instrument folder
lpm effect     [/path/to/a/zip/file]
# download and unzip the file into your Max for live audio effects folder
 ### TODO

  • Add commands to install AU and VSTs

  • Find out a better way to download zip files from web: at the moment when downloading a zip from github it will fail due to the 302 message error.

  • Add a simple database to store data, so the user would able to install / uninstall / disable installed plugins

  • Fix windows version

    • perhaps just adjust some paths on install.coffee will do the job

Should be simple and would be great if someone could contribute with that.

 ### Next Steps

Having a centralized repository, or list of packages.

Agree on some configuration file, i.e. yaml or json file to specify package version, author among other basic information
