Portroach

Portroach is the OpenBSD ports tree version scanner. It scans the upstream master sites for ports looking for new releases.

Installation

Portroach is available as an OpenBSD package built from misc/portroach:

pkg_add portroach

Alternatively you can git clone this repository and run portroach.pl inplace.

Usage

Please see 'perldoc portroach' for usage instructions, or refer to docs/portroach-portconfig.txt for details on the PORTROACH variable.

Results

The results are available at portroach.openbsd.org, kindly hosted by ajacoutot@.

ToDo

Here's a shortlist of outstanding tasks or ideas:

• add Makefile.PL
• improve DISTFILES handling and "lack" of versions
• for the dynamic pages:
  • use a single maintainer.html
  • generate indexes by category
