Description

Our CI currently only publishes Docker images and adds binary artifacts to the release, e.g. here (at the bottom). We need to greatly simplify re-use of Martin:

  • debian packages
  • homebrew (used to work before?)
  • cargo install from crates.io - Martin at the moment uses internal non-published mbtiles crate - we need to either publish them if reasonable, or move the code into a sub-module
  • windows install (is this still a thing?)
  • packaging for other platforms, and publish it to relevant package repositories

Research direction
Investigate using cargo dist or bat's CI workflow for creating debian packages. Also explore publishing to crates.io by separating internal mbtiles crate.
