6.4 Package Source Parsing
The pkg/name library provides
functions for parsing and normalizing a package source, especially for
extracting a package name.
procedure
v : any/c
Returns #t if v is 'name , 'file,
'dir, 'github, 'file-url,
'dir-url, 'link, or 'static-link, and
returns #f otherwise.
The 'link and 'static-link formats are the same as 'dir in terms of parsing, but they are treated differently for tasks such as package installation.
procedure
(package-source->name source [type]) → (or/c #f string?)
source : string? type : (or/c package-source-format? #f) = #f
Extracts the package name from a package source, where
the package source type is inferred if type is #f.
If a valid name cannot be inferred, the result is #f.
procedure
(package-source->name+type source [type])
→
(or/c #f string?) (or/c package-source-format? #f) source : string? type : (or/c package-source-format? #f) = #f
Like package-source->name, but also returns the type of the
source (which is useful when the type is inferred). If the source is
not well-formed, the second result can be #f.
