Downloading all dependencies, and compiling them later?

[Bas den Hond]

I had the same problem. And just asking for the deps manually is not  
going to do it, because they are likely to have deps themselves.

So I wrote a perl script, mpfetch.pl, to do a recursive fetch. I'm  
pasting it below.

I think there should be a 'recursive' option for the fetch command in  
port.

In fact, I think fetching should be recursive by default. And not  
just because sometimes folks have bad connections or are on the road.  
It will prevent long builds happening before you port finds out some  
dep of a dep is missing.

==========
#! /usr/bin/perl

# mpfetch --- fetch Macports ports and al dependencies, recursively.

use warnings;
use strict;

my (%fetched);

foreach(@ARGV) {
	fetch(0,$_);
}
print "\nDone\n\n";

sub fetch {
	my $level = shift;
	my $indent = "\n" . ("   " x $level);
	foreach(@_)  {
		my $port = $_;
		print $indent, "<- Fetching $port...";
		my $result = system("port fetch $port");
		unless ($result) {
			$fetched{$port}++;		# remember what whas fetched, to speed things up
			print "done.";
		} else {
			print $indent,"!! Couldn't fetch $port!";
		}
		my @deps = qx/port deps $port/;
		shift(@deps);	#remove introductory line
		if (@deps) {
			print $indent, "-> $port has the following dependencies:";
			foreach (@deps) {
				s#^\s|\s$##g;
				print $indent, ($fetched{$_} ? "+ " : "- "), $_;
			}
			foreach (@deps) {
				next if $fetched{$_};
				fetch($level+1,$_);
			}
		}
	}
}
