ql-https — HTTPS support for Quicklisp via curl

(asdf:load-system "ql-https")

• Quicklisp
• curl

The default implementation is SBCL, if you are using another then set the LISP environment variable, for example to use Clozure Common Lisp:

export LISP=ccl

If you change the implementation, adjusting the CLFLAGS is almost always necessary as well, for example for CCL:

export CLFLAGS=-Q -b -n

Now run the installer script:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rudolfochrist/ql-https/master/install.sh | bash

1. mkdir ~/quicklisp and cd ~/quicklisp
2. Go to https://beta.quicklisp.org/client/quicklisp.sexp and lookup :client-tar URL, download it, verify hash and untar.
3. Clone ql-https from https://github.com/rudolfochrist/ql-https.git to to ~/common-lisp/ql-https
4. Start a fresh REPL and (require 'asdf)
5. Load ~/common-lisp/ql-https/ql-setup.lisp
6. Eval (uiop:symbol-call :ql-setup :setup). Invoke ql-https restarts as necessary. If you use an alternative install location for quicklisp eval (uiop:symbol-call :ql-setup :setup #p"/path/to/quicklisp")

Removing the Missing client-info.sexp, using mock info warning.

1. Eval (ql:update-client)
2. move ~/quicklisp/tmp/client-info.sexp to ~/quicklisp

(let ((quicklisp-init #p"~/common-lisp/ql-https/ql-setup.lisp"))
  (when (probe-file quicklisp-init)
    (load quicklisp-init)
	;; Alternatively: (uiop:symbol-call :ql-setup :setup #p"/path/to/quicklisp/")
    (uiop:symbol-call :ql-setup :setup)))

;; optional
#+ql-https
(setf ql-https:*quietly-use-https* t)
