Tool description

AddZip

takes a .zip and adds it to the repo with user specified tags:

Usage:

AddZip <Store Path> <Zip Path> [Tag1] ...

BuildGit

adds a git path to the repo and generates the tags automatically from the commit message, it also optimizes for incremental updates

Usage:

BuildGit <Git Path> <Mod Root> <Modinfo> <Store Path> <Git Hash> <Prefix>

Streamer

is a cgi program to serve some specific files of a .sdp. This is the fastest and official way to fetch a rapid archive.

at client side you have to http POST: http://packages.springrts.com/streamer.cgi?<hash of sdp>

post data is binary 0/1 if a file of the specified sdp is needed or not.

streamer.cgi then returns all files in a single stream in the same order than in the sdp. it has to be in the root of a rapid file structure.

Usage: ./Streamer
Expects environment variables DOCUMENT_ROOT and QUERY_STRING
Expects a gziped bitarray as stdin

for details see the source-code: https://github.com/spring/RapidTools/blob/master/Tools/Streamer.cpp#L68

MakeZip

can create a zip from a .sdp

MakeZip ~/.spring ba:stable ba.zip

Notes

If you get this error:

Error on unknown tag lookup

MakeZip doesn't find the tag specified in (for example) ~/.spring/versions.gz. To fix, copy the required versions.gz:

cp ~/.spring/rapid/packages.springrts.com/versions.gz ~/.spring/
