Why is it written in node.js and not in any other language? I know how to code on it (more or less) and the Google API was way easier to use than python's, the one that I was able to make work on python was for python 2.
Is there any other node in STX? I am not aware of any and would be reluctant to add yet another platform requirement to this build system. I know I'd be reluctant to install node on my laptop just to run this... it's bad enough the python bits I have to go through to install OpenStackClient and I wrote the dang thing.
This script is still far from being perfect but I could move faster if more people uses it and gives me feedback, what I have identified as improvement opportunities are: - It could receive a list of packages instead of a single one. - It could look for rpm integrity or at least if the package is signed.
Validating signed packages is an absolute requirement.
I will add it to the stx-tools repo shortly and see if it goes through.
Posting a review is the right way to share something to get feedback on it. Make it clear in the commit message that is your intention, optionally even set workflow -1 to prevent it from being merged although sometimes people don't even look at those... dt -- Dean Troyer dtroyer@gmail.com
