Topic: Include glue platform files in release

Luke Boswell (May 05 2024 at 14:52):

Can we include a bundle of the glue platform files in the nightly release? Or have some place where we can keep these?

We can build the bundle using roc build --bundle .tar.br crates/glue/platform/main.roc instead of a relative path to a local copy of the roc repository. Then in glue spec's we can use as follows:

app [makeGlue] {
    pf: platform "https://github.com/lukewilliamboswell/roc/releases/download/test/olBfrjtI-HycorWJMxdy7Dl2pcbbBoJy4mnSrDtRrlI.tar.br",
}

I like the idea of doing a URL release for it from the roc-lang org, maybe similar to what we do for basic-cli
