22 then use the <GetLatestVimScripts.dat> (see |GetLatestVimScripts_dat|) file to | |
23 get the latest versions of scripts listed therein from http://vim.sf.net/. | |

44 VERSION FROM VIM DISTRIBUTION *glvs-dist-install* | |
45 | |
46 Vim 7.0 does not include the GetLatestVimScripts.dist file which | |
47 serves as an example and a template. So, you'll need to create | |
48 your own! See |GetLatestVimScripts_dat|. | |
49 | |
50 VERSION FROM VIM SF NET *glvs-install* | |
51 | |
52 NOTE: The last step, that of renaming/moving the GetLatestVimScripts.dist | |
53 file, is for those who have just downloaded GetLatestVimScripts.tar.bz2 for | |
54 the first time. | |
55 | |
56 The GetLatestVimScripts.dist file serves as an example and a template for your | |
57 own personal list. Feel free to remove all the scripts mentioned within it; | |
58 the "important" part of it is the first two lines. | |

90 command, then you may type | |
91 > | |
92 :GetLatestVimScripts | |
93 < | |
94 The script will attempt to update and, if permitted, will automatically | |
95 install scripts from http://vim.sourceforge.net/. To do so it will peruse a | |
96 file, | |
97 > | |
98 .vim/GetLatest/GetLatestVimScripts.dat (unix) | |
99 < | |
100 or > | |
101 ..wherever..\vimfiles\GetLatest\GetLatestVimScripts.dat (windows) | |
102 (see |glvs-data|), and examine plugins in your [.vim|vimfiles]/plugin | |
103 directory (see |glvs-plugins|). | |
104 | |
105 Scripts which have been downloaded will appear in the | |
106 ~/.vim/GetLatest (unix) or ..wherever..\vimfiles\GetLatest (windows) | |

108 install them if you have the following line in your <.vimrc>: > | |
109 | |
110 let g:GetLatestVimScripts_allowautoinstall=1 | |
111 | |
112 The <GetLatestVimScripts.dat> file will be automatically be updated to | |
113 reflect the latest version of script(s) so downloaded. | |

117 ============================================================================== | |
118 4. GetLatestVimScripts Data File *getscript-data* *glvs-data* | |
119 *:GetLatestVimScripts_dat* | |
120 The data file <GetLatestVimScripts.dat> must have for its first two lines | |
121 the following text: | |
122 > | |
123 ScriptID SourceID Filename | |
124 -------------------------- | |
125 < | |
126 Following those two lines are three columns; the first two are numeric | |
127 followed by a text column. The GetLatest/GetLatestVimScripts.dist file | |
128 contains an example of such a data file. Anything following a #... is | |
129 ignored, so you may embed comments in the file. | |
130 | |
131 The first number on each line gives the script's ScriptID. When you're about | |
132 to use a web browser to look at scripts on http://vim.sf.net/, just before you | |
133 click on the script's link, you'll see a line resembling | |
134 | |
135 http://vim.sourceforge.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=40 | |
136 | |
137 The "40" happens to be a ScriptID that GetLatestVimScripts needs to | |
2908 | 138 download the associated page, and is assigned by vim.sf.net itself |
139 during initial uploading of the plugin. | |
1121 | 140 |
141 The second number on each line gives the script's SourceID. The SourceID | |
142 records the count of uploaded scripts as determined by vim.sf.net; hence it | |
143 serves to indicate "when" a script was uploaded. Setting the SourceID to 1 | |
144 insures that GetLatestVimScripts will assume that the script it has is | |
145 out-of-date. | |
146 | |
147 The SourceID is extracted by GetLatestVimScripts from the script's page on | |
2033

148 vim.sf.net; whenever it is greater than the one stored in the |
1121 | 149 GetLatestVimScripts.dat file, the script will be downloaded |
150 (see |GetLatestVimScripts_dat|). | |
151 | |
152 If your script's author has included a special comment line in his/her plugin, | |
153 the plugin itself will be used by GetLatestVimScripts to build your | |
154 <GetLatestVimScripts.dat> file, including any dependencies on other scripts it | |
155 may have. As an example, consider: > | |
156 | |
157 " GetLatestVimScripts: 884 1 :AutoInstall: AutoAlign.vim | |
158 | |
159 This comment line tells getscript.vim to check vimscript #884 and that the | |
160 script is automatically installable. Getscript will also use this line to | |
161 help build the GetLatestVimScripts.dat file, by including a line such as: > | |
162 | |
2908 | 163 884 1 :AutoInstall: AutoAlign.vim |
1121 | 164 < |
2908 | 165 assuming that such a line isn't already in GetLatestVimScripts.dat file. |
1121 | 166 See |glvs-plugins| for more. Thus, GetLatestVimScripts thus provides a |
167 comprehensive ability to keep your plugins up-to-date! | |
168 | |
2908 | 169 In summary: |
170 | |
171 * Optionally tell getscript that it is allowed to build/append a | |
172 GetLatestVimScripts.dat file based upon already installed plugins: > | |
173 let g:GetLatestVimScripts_allowautoinstall=1 | |
174 < | |
175 * A line such as > | |
176 " GetLatestVimScripts: 884 1 :AutoInstall: AutoAlign.vim | |
177 < in an already-downloaded plugin constitutes the concurrence of the | |
178 plugin author that getscript may do AutoInstall. Not all plugins | |
179 may be AutoInstall-able, and the plugin's author is best situated | |
180 to know whether or not his/her plugin will AutoInstall properly. | |
181 | |
182 * A line such as > | |
183 884 1 :AutoInstall: AutoAlign.vim | |
184 < in your GetLatestVimScripts.dat file constitutes your permission | |
185 to getscript to do AutoInstall. AutoInstall requires both your | |
186 and the plugin author's permission. See |GetLatestVimScripts_dat|. | |
187 | |
188 | |
1121 | 189 *GetLatestVimScripts_dat* |

238 a relatively painless way to automate the acquisition of any scripts your |
1121 | 239 plugins depend upon. |
240 | |
241 Now, as an author, you probably don't want GetLatestVimScripts to download | |
2908 | 242 your own scripts atop your own copy, thereby overwriting your not-yet-released |
1121 | 243 hard work. GetLatestVimScripts provides a solution for this: put |
244 > | |
245 0 0 yourscriptname | |
246 < | |
247 into your <GetLatestVimScripts.dat> file and GetLatestVimScripts will skip | |
248 examining the "yourscriptname" scripts for those GetLatestVimScripts comment | |
249 lines. As a result, those lines won't be inadvertently installed into your | |
250 <GetLatestVimScripts.dat> file and subsequently used to download your own | |
251 scripts. This is especially important to do if you've included the | |
252 :AutoInstall: option. | |
253 | |
254 Be certain to use the same "yourscriptname" in the "0 0 yourscriptname" line | |
255 as you've used in your GetLatestVimScripts comment! | |
256 | |
257 | |
258 ============================================================================== | |
259 6. GetLatestVimScripts AutoInstall *getscript-autoinstall* | |
260 *glvs-autoinstall* | |
261 | |
262 GetLatestVimScripts now supports "AutoInstall". Not all scripts are | |
263 supportive of auto-install, as they may have special things you need to do to | |
264 install them (please refer to the script's "install" directions). On the | |
265 other hand, most scripts will be auto-installable. | |
266 | |
267 To let GetLatestVimScripts do an autoinstall, the data file's comment field | |
268 should begin with (surrounding blanks are ignored): > | |
269 | |
270 :AutoInstall: | |
271 < | |
272 Both colons are needed, and it should begin the comment (yourscriptname) | |
273 field. | |
274 | |
275 One may prevent any autoinstalling by putting the following line in your | |
276 <.vimrc>: > | |
277 | |
278 let g:GetLatestVimScripts_allowautoinstall= 0 | |
279 < | |
280 With :AutoInstall: enabled, as it is by default, files which end with | |
281 | |
282 ---.tar.bz2 : decompressed & untarred in .vim/ directory | |
283 ---.vba.bz2 : decompressed in .vim/ directory, then vimball handles it | |
284 ---.vim.bz2 : decompressed & moved into .vim/plugin directory | |
285 ---.tar.gz : decompressed & untarred in .vim/ directory | |
286 ---.vba.gz : decompressed in .vim/ directory, then vimball handles it | |
287 ---.vim.gz : decompressed & moved into .vim/plugin directory | |
288 ---.vba : unzipped in .vim/ directory | |
289 ---.vim : moved to .vim/plugin directory | |
290 ---.zip : unzipped in .vim/ directory | |
291 | |
292 and which merely need to have their components placed by the untar/gunzip or | |
293 move-to-plugin-directory process should be auto-installable. Vimballs, of | |
294 course, should always be auto-installable. | |
295 | |
296 When is a script not auto-installable? Let me give an example: | |
297 | |
298 .vim/after/syntax/blockhl.vim | |
299 | |
300 The <blockhl.vim> script provides block highlighting for C/C++ programs; it is | |
301 available at: | |
302 | |
303 http://vim.sourceforge.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=104 | |
304 | |
305 Currently, vim's after/syntax only supports by-filetype scripts (in | |
306 blockhl.vim's case, that's after/syntax/c.vim). Hence, auto-install would | |
307 possibly overwrite the current user's after/syntax/c.vim file. | |
308 | |
309 In my own case, I use <aftersyntax.vim> (renamed to after/syntax/c.vim) to | |
310 allow a after/syntax/c/ directory: | |
311 | |
312 http://vim.sourceforge.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=1023 | |
313 | |
314 The script allows multiple syntax files to exist separately in the | |
315 after/syntax/c subdirectory. I can't bundle aftersyntax.vim in and build an | |
316 appropriate tarball for auto-install because of the potential for the | |
317 after/syntax/c.vim contained in it to overwrite a user's c.vim. | |
318 | |
319 | |

353 8. GetLatestVimScripts Algorithm *glvs-algorithm* *glvs-alg* | |
354 | |
355 The Vim sourceforge page dynamically creates a page by keying off of the | |
356 so-called script-id. Within the webpage of | |
357 | |
358 http://vim.sourceforge.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=40 | |
359 | |
360 is a line specifying the latest source-id (src_id). The source identifier | |
361 numbers are always increasing, hence if the src_id is greater than the one | |
1201 | 362 recorded for the script in GetLatestVimScripts then it's time to download a |
1121 | 363 newer copy of that script. |

365 GetLatestVimScripts will then download the script and update its internal | |
366 database of script ids, source ids, and scriptnames. | |

368 The AutoInstall process will: | |
369 | |
370 Move the file from GetLatest/ to the following directory | |
371 Unix : $HOME/.vim | |
372 Windows: $HOME\vimfiles | |
373 if the downloaded file ends with ".bz2" | |
374 bunzip2 it | |
375 else if the downloaded file ends with ".gz" | |
376 gunzip it | |
377 if the resulting file ends with ".zip" | |
378 unzip it | |
379 else if the resulting file ends with ".tar" | |
380 tar -oxvf it | |
381 else if the resulting file ends with ".vim" | |
382 move it to the plugin subdirectory | |

387 | |
5618 | 388 v36 Apr 22, 2013 : * (glts) suggested use of plugin/**/*.vim instead of |
389 plugin/*.vim in globpath() call. | |
390 * (Andy Wokula) got warning message when setting | |
391 g:loaded_getscriptPlugin | |
19116 | 392 v35 Apr 07, 2012 : * (MengHuan Yu) pointed out that the script URL has |
4339 | 393 changed (somewhat). However, it doesn't work, and |
394 the original one does (under Linux). I'll make it | |
395 yet-another-option. | |
396 v34 Jun 23, 2011 : * handles additional decompression options for tarballs | |
3281 | 397 (tgz taz tbz txz) |
2908 | 398 v33 May 31, 2011 : * using fnameescape() instead of escape() |

405 issue an error message if it is not supported |
1620 | 406 v29 Jan 07, 2008 : * Bram M pointed out that cpo is a global option and that |
407 getscriptPlugin.vim was setting it but not restoring it. | |
408 v28 Jan 02, 2008 : * improved shell quoting character handling, cygwin | |
409 interface, register-a bypass | |
410 Oct 29, 2007 * Bill McCarthy suggested a change to getscript that avoids | |
411 creating pop-up windows | |
1201 | 412 v24 Apr 16, 2007 : * removed save&restore of the fo option during script |
413 loading | |
1121 | 414 v23 Nov 03, 2006 : * ignores comments (#...) |
415 * handles vimballs | |
416 v22 Oct 13, 2006 : * supports automatic use of curl if wget is not | |
417 available | |
418 v21 May 01, 2006 : * now takes advantage of autoloading. | |
419 v20 Dec 23, 2005 : * Eric Haarbauer found&fixed a bug with unzip use; | |
420 unzip needs the -o flag to overwrite. | |
421 v19 Nov 28, 2005 : * v18's GetLatestVimScript line accessed the wrong | |
422 script! Fixed. | |
423 v18 Mar 21, 2005 : * bugfix to automatic database construction | |
424 * bugfix - nowrapscan caused an error | |
425 (tnx to David Green for the fix) | |
426 Apr 01, 2005 * if shell is bash, "mv" instead of "ren" used in | |
427 :AutoInstall:s, even though its o/s is windows | |
428 Apr 01, 2005 * when downloading errors occurred, GLVS was | |
429 terminating early. It now just goes on to trying | |
430 the next script (after trying three times to | |
431 download a script description page) | |
432 Apr 20, 2005 * bugfix - when a failure to download occurred, | |
433 GetLatestVimScripts would stop early and claim that | |
434 everything was current. Fixed. | |
435 v17 Aug 25, 2004 : * g:GetLatestVimScripts_allowautoinstall, which | |
436 defaults to 1, can be used to prevent all | |
437 :AutoInstall: | |
438 v16 Aug 25, 2004 : * made execution of bunzip2/gunzip/tar/zip silent | |
439 * fixed bug with :AutoInstall: use of helptags | |
440 v15 Aug 24, 2004 : * bugfix: the "0 0 comment" download prevention wasn't | |
441 always preventing downloads (just usually). Fixed. | |
442 v14 Aug 24, 2004 : * bugfix -- helptags was using dotvim, rather than | |
443 s:dotvim. Fixed. | |
444 v13 Aug 23, 2004 : * will skip downloading a file if its scriptid or srcid | |
445 is zero. Useful for script authors; that way their | |
446 own GetLatestVimScripts activity won't overwrite | |
447 their scripts. | |
448 v12 Aug 23, 2004 : * bugfix - a "return" got left in the distribution that | |
449 was intended only for testing. Removed, now works. | |
450 * :AutoInstall: implemented | |
451 v11 Aug 20, 2004 : * GetLatestVimScripts is now a plugin: | |
452 * :GetLatestVimScripts command | |
453 * (runtimepath)/GetLatest/GetLatestVimScripts.dat | |
454 now holds scripts that need updating | |
455 v10 Apr 19, 2004 : * moved history from script to doc | |
456 v9 Jan 23, 2004 : windows (win32/win16/win95) will use | |
457 double quotes ("") whereas other systems will use | |
458 single quotes ('') around the urls in calls via wget | |
459 v8 Dec 01, 2003 : makes three tries at downloading | |
460 v7 Sep 02, 2003 : added error messages if "Click on..." or "src_id=" | |
461 not found in downloaded webpage | |
462 Uses t_ti, t_te, and rs to make progress visible | |
463 v6 Aug 06, 2003 : final status messages now display summary of work | |
464 ( "Downloaded someqty scripts" or | |
465 "Everything was current") | |
466 Now GetLatestVimScripts is careful about downloading | |
467 GetLatestVimScripts.vim itself! | |
468 (goes to <NEW_GetLatestVimScripts.vim>) | |
469 v5 Aug 04, 2003 : missing an endif near bottom | |
470 v4 Jun 17, 2003 : redraw! just before each "considering" message | |
471 v3 May 27, 2003 : Protects downloaded files from errant shell | |
472 expansions with single quotes: '...' | |
473 v2 May 14, 2003 : extracts name of item to be obtained from the | |
474 script file. Uses it instead of comment field | |
475 for output filename; comment is used in the | |
476 "considering..." line and is now just a comment! | |
477 * Fixed a bug: a string-of-numbers is not the | |
478 same as a number, so I added zero to them | |
479 and they became numbers. Fixes comparison. | |
