A quick hack to help with building a Common Lisp project on multiple

machines.

I'm working on a rather big project with many dependencies.  The main

development machine is my laptop, but from time to time I need to update a

machine for folks that actually use my app.  Since I don't care about

replicating the exact setup of my laptop on that machine, I thought it would

be enough if I just copy the dependencies there, so that the build script

would be able to produce a binary.

This tool helps me copy the dependencies, so that there I only need a bare

SBCL and buildapp [1] to compile the thing.

Here's how I use it.  I load it from the REPL (no need to :depends-on it)

and run the following:

  (cl-build-deps:copy-dependencies

   :systems '(:my-sys-1 :my-sys-2 :swank)

   :source (list (merge-pathnames "lisp/source/"

                                  (user-homedir-pathname))

                 (merge-pathnames "quicklisp/dists/quicklisp/software/"

                                  (user-homedir-pathname)))

   :target "/tmp/libs/")

This puts into "/tmp/libs" all the libraries that (1) are needed for

building :my-sys-1, :my-sys-2 and :swank, and (2) appear under

~/lisp/source/ or ~/quicklisp/dists/quicklisp/software/.  Then I rsync

/tmp/libs/ to that machine and run a small wrapper around buildapp that

passes --asdf-tree /path/to/where/I/put/tmp/libs/.
