May I get recommendations or links to representative code repositories with good style for multiple related Common Lisp packages, please?
For instance, consider a high-level workflow library with accompanying lower-level API, each in its own CL package but same git repo due to synchronized releases.
Each system (*.asd file) isolates tests and may be
invoked using:
(asdf:test-system foo :force t)
Separate systems may be built via make, which
definitely helps isolate SBCL code-coverage reports.
Some users of the library may only want to load the lower-level API. For simplifying dependencies for those using higher-level API, it seems best to keep everything bundled in one repo. Any revision to one library would likely require updating all for the same release.
I currently have a single directory tree with a subdirectory
for each CL package. There's a top-level Makefile
plus one in each subdirectory that the library maintain would
use. The top-level also contains symbolic links for .asd
files pointing into relevant subdirectories. (It's a library
deeply dependent upon POSIX calls via uiop-posix,
so it's only applicable on an OS with sym-links.)
This seems to be an issue at large considering issue #1 for Quicklisp-docs [0].
Found nothing relevant in Google's CL style guide [1], State of the Common Lisp Ecosystem, 2015 [2], Edi's CL Recipes [3] or Lisp-lang [4]. Browsing repos seem to have quite a mix of styles.
