Reference implementation of Hex specifications: https://github.com/hexpm/specifications.
Let's use default config for now. See "Configuration" section below for customization.
Config = hex_core:default_config().
Get all package names:
> hex_repo:get_names(Config).
{ok, {200, ...,
#{packages => [
#{name => <<"package1">>},
#{name => <<"package2">>},
...
]}}}
Get all package versions from repository:
> hex_repo:get_versions(Config).
{ok, {200, ...,
[
#{name => <<"package1">>, retired => [], versions => [<<"1.0.0">>]},
#{name => <<"package2">>, retired => [], versions => [<<"0.5.0">>]},
]}}
Get package releases from repository:
> hex_repo:get_package(Config, <<"package1">>).
{ok, {200, ...,
[
#{checksum => ..., version => <<"0.5.0">>, dependencies => []}],
#{checksum => ..., version => <<"1.0.0">>, dependencies => []}],
]}}
For a full list of all parameters and returned objects for the API, check out the API docs: https://github.com/hexpm/specifications/blob/master/http_api.md.
Get package from HTTP API:
> hex_api_package:get(Config, <<"package1">>).
{ok, {200, ...,
#{
<<"name">> => <<"package1">>,
<<"meta">> => #{
<<"description">> => ...,
<<"licenses">> => ...,
<<"links">> => ...,
<<"maintainers">> => ...,
},
...,
<<"releases">> => [
#{<<"url">> => ..., <<"version">> => <<"0.5.0">>}],
#{<<"url">> => ..., <<"version">> => <<"1.0.0">>}],
...
]
}}}
Get package tarball:
{ok, {200, _, Tarball}} = hex_repo:get_tarball(Config, <<"package1">>, <<"1.0.0">>).
Publish package tarball:
{ok, {200, _Headers, _Body} = hex_api_package:publish(Config, Tarball).
Unpack package tarball:
{ok, #{outer_checksum := Checksum, contents := Contents, metadata := Metadata}} = hex_tarball:unpack(Tarball, memory).
Remember to verify the outer tarball checksum against the registry checksum
returned from hex_repo:get_package(Config, Package)
.
Create package tarball:
{ok, #{tarball := Tarball,
inner_checksum := InnerChecksum,
outer_checksum := OuterChecksum}} = hex_tarball:create(Metadata, Contents).
The default configuration, provided by hex_core:default_config/0
, uses built-in httpc-based adapter and Hex.pm APIs:
https://hex.pm/api and https://repo.hex.pm.
HTTP client configuration can be overridden as follows:
Config = maps:merge(hex_core:default_config(), #{
http_adapter => my_hackney_adapter,
http_user_agent_fragment => <<"(my_app/0.1.0) (hackney/1.12.1) ">>
}),
hex_repo:get_names(Config).
%% my_hackney_adapter.erl
-module(my_hackney_adapter).
-behaviour(hex_http).
-exports([request/3]).
request(Method, URI, ReqHeaders) ->
%% ...
See the hex_core
module for more information about the configuration.
It's recommended to write a wrapper module because a lot of decisions are left to the user, e.g.: where to get configuration from, how to handle caching, failures etc.
For a sample, see: examples/myapp_hex.erl
. Here's an excerpt:
-module(myapp_hex).
-export([
get_api_package/1,
get_repo_tarball/2,
get_repo_versions/0
]).
