install <url> Installs the package located at <url>
Description
The install command is used to install packages from the repository.
Install packages by name or number (the number is given by the
repository or search request), or set a default package using the
describe command. You can specify a full URL to a PPD file; the URL may
point to a PPD file on your computer.
If you have profile tracking enabled, (see 'help profile') the current
profile will be updated to include the newly installed package(s).
The following modifiers can be used with the install command:
* -force
* -noforce
* -follow
* -nofollow
The force and follow switches determine how packages are installed:
FORCE FOLLOW RESULT
false false Checks to see if the package is installed and
if it is, installation stops. If there are any
missing prerequisites, the installation will
fail.
false true Checks to see if the package is installed and
if it is, installation stops. If there are any
missing prerequisites, they are automatically
installed. NOTE: this is the default setting
when PPM is first installed.
true false If the package is installed, PPM will
reinstall the package. If there are any
missing prerequisites, the installation will
fail.
true true If the package is installed, PPM will
reinstall the package. All prerequisites are
installed, missing or not.
If you do not specify any options, install uses the default settings.
Set or view the current defaults using the 'settings' command.
For example:
install foo
will install the package named ""foo"", using the default settings.
Over-ride the defaults using the install modifiers described above.
For example:
install foo -force
will install the ""foo"" package, even if it has already been installed.
If both -force and -follow are set to ""true"", all the prerequisites for
any package you install will also be installed. For example, the
installation of a tk-related package, like ""tk-ach"" which is 8.4 kB will
be preceded by the installation of Tk, which is 1.7 MB.
You can also install by package number. Package numbers are based on the
current repository or current search request. For example:
install 6
installs package number 6. You can install more than one package at one
time:
install 3-5
installs packages 3, 4 and 5. You can also type install 3-6,8 to install
packages 3,4,5,6 and 8.
