A simple Json Package Manager
##What is this?
It's just a simple Package Manager which uses JSON syntax to keep the work done. Also, it's a small library which give developers the freedom to choose what to do once a package should be Installed/Updated or Removed.
##How to use
This library is meant to be used in a working Application (intended as an executable binary).
To use it just include this library to your project, then to create an instance just do
var packageManager = new JPM("C:\\path\\to\\your\\sources.json");
where sources.json is just an Array of strings. For example:
[
"http://mysite.com/packages.json"
]
Until now it supports multiple sources, and merge all the packages defined in the URLs inside a list.
Then you can use defined methods to refresh packages, install/update or remove a single package.
The structure of packages.json would be:
[
{
"name": "Package Name",
"version": "0.1",
...
}
]
notice that ONLY name and version are required, all the other fields are at your glance.
##FAQ
###Does it have any dependence?
Yes it does. Actually, it needs [NewtonSoft JSON.NET](http://json.codeplex.com/) to be included in your working project.
###Does this works on a WebSite Application (ASP.NET)?
I didn't test it. But it *could* work.
###Will it be forever only for .NET?
Nope, if you like it, i'll port this to other languages too (Java, PHP, Javascript, Python and so on).
###Where can i find the documentation?
Since it's the first day of its life, it's currently a WIP library. When it will be stable, I'll do my best to create a good documentation.
###Err...no comments in the source?
Yeah, sorry. I'll do my best to fix this also.
