Subject: Modules inside project structure
Date: Mon, 13 Jun 2011 11:50:07 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <13610400819.20110613115007@gmx.de> (raw)
Hello,
I'm currently trying to split our ConTeXt project into smaller parts,
utilizing the ConTeXt project structure. I thought it might be a good
idea to also extract reusable parts into private modules. Now I face
the problem, that I can't find an optimal spot to place these modules.
Currently I just have them at the root of the project where I also
have the environment file that is used. That kinda works, since
\usemodule uses resolvers.findctxfile which also traverses parent
directories. Unfortunately \registerctxluafile doesn't, so the
corresponding lua file isn't loaded (which I currently circumvent with
dofile()).
I guess it might be cleaner to make use of texmf-project or something
similar, however that would require the "user" (who is working with
that project) to modify their TeX tree and rebuild their formats. It's
also a bit strange, since these modules are exclusive to that one
project - a new project would at least require copies of these files
anyway. So these modules should preferably lie somewhere beneath the
actual project, and not "globally" on the system of the user.
What would you suggest to handle such projects that should be
separated and independent from the ConTeXt installation of the
"users"? Would you use modules at all in that case?

Andreas
