[new release] fpath-base (2 packages) (0.2.1)

[mbarbin]

This is the initial release for 2 packages fpath-sexplib0 and fpath-base. Short synopsis below, more information at https://github.com/mbarbin/fpath-base

fpath-sexplib0

This package only depends on fpath and sexplib0. It defines a single module, Fpath_sexplib0, which is designed to be opened to shadow the Fpath module to add small helpers and a sexp serializer to it. The package also introduces three new modules to the scope: Fpart, Absolute_path and Relative_path to increase type-safety when manipulating paths that are known to be relative or absolute.

fpath-base

This package further extends fpath-sexplib0 and adds a dependency on base. It is designed to be compatible with Base-style containers such as Map, Set, Hashtbl, Hash_set.

Motivation

This is a dependency to my vcs project. Publishing these packages to opam brings me one step closer to publishing vcs to opam one day. Thanks for your consideration!

Thanks, @mbarbin! I still owe you a response, which I've not forgotten.

Appreciate you taking the time to publish your work :)

Don't forget to announce on discuss, if you're inclined!

[mbarbin]

Thank you @shonfeder for the review, and your encouraging comments, much appreciated!

Re:discuss - I'm inclined! I have a couple more packages in the pipeline now that loc is published, and plan on doing on joined announce with related packages (I'm thinking of https://github.com/mbarbin/file-rewriter next - I expect you'll see a PR about this sometimes next week). Thanks a lot!
