The *purpose of a package* is to be a simple, and easy to access, code sharing medium, which will allow: on the one hand, to separate the code complex dependencies created by the developer from the user experience with the final product and, on the other hand, reduce developer's and user's unnecessary frustration related to a remote deployment process.

Macro to request (install and load) SAS packages, version `20260602`
A SAS package is a zip file containing a group
of SAS codes (macros, functions, data steps generating
data, etc.) wrapped up together and embedded inside the zip.
The `%requestPackage()` macro installs and loads the package zip
in the packages folder. The process takes care of installing or loading
dependencies too.
In case the packages fileref is a multi-directory one the first directory
will be selected as a destination.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Parameters:
1. `packageName ` Name of a package _without_ the zip extension, e.g., myPackage1.
Required and not null, default use case:
`%requestPackage(myPackage1)`.
If empty displays this help information.
**Installation options:**
- `requiredVersion=` *Optional.* Indicates which package version we want
to be requested, default value: `.` means "the latest".
- `sourcePath=` Location of the package, e.g. "www.some.web.page/"
Mind the "/" at the end of the path!
Current default location for packages is:
`https://github.com/SASPAC/`
Current default location for the framework is:
`https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yabwon/SAS_PACKAGES/main/SPF/`
- `mirror=` Indicates which web location for packages installation is used.
Value `0` or `SASPAC` indicates:
`https://github.com/SASPAC/`
Value `1` indicates:
`https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yabwon/SAS_PACKAGES/main`
Value `2` indicates:
`https://pages.mini.pw.edu.pl/~jablonskib/SASpublic/SAS_PACKAGES`
Value `3` or `PharmaForest` indicates:
`https://github.com/PharmaForest/`
Default value is `0`.
- `version=` Indicates which historical version of a package to install.
Historical version are currently available only if `mirror=0` is set.
Default value is null which means "install the latest".
When there are multiple packages to install the `version` variable
is scan sequentially.
- `replace=` When set to `1` and a package file exists, it forces the package
file replacement by the new downloaded file.
It is a binary indicator ('0' or '1'). Default value is `1`.
- `backup=` When set to `1` and a package file exists, it creates a backup copy
of the package file. The backup copy is created with a suffix of the
following format: `_BCKP_yyyymmddJJMMSS`.
If `replace=0` then `backup` is set to `0`.
It is a binary indicator ('0' or '1'). Default value is `0`.
- `URLuser=` A user name for the password protected URLs, no quotes needed.
- `URLpass=` A password for the password protected URLs, no quotes needed.
- `URLoptions=` Options for the `sourcePath` URLs filename. Consult the SAS
documentation for the further details.
- `loadAddCnt=` *Optional.* A package zip may contain additional
content. The option indicates if it should be loaded
Default value of zero (`0`) means "No", one (`1`)
means "Yes". Content is extracted into the **packages** fileref
directory in `<packageName>_AdditionalContent` folder.
For other locations use `%loadPackageAddCnt()` macro.
- `instDoc=` *Optional.* A package may be provided with a markdown file
containing combined documentation of the package. The option
indicates if the `.md` file should be also downloaded.
Default value of zero (`0`) means "No", one (`1`) means "Yes".
- `github=` *Optional.* A name of a user or an organization in GitHub.
Allows an easy set of the search path for packages available on GitHub:
`https://github.com/<github>/<githubRepo>/raw/.../`
All characters except `[A-z0-9_.-]` are compressed.
- `githubRepo=` *Optional.* A name of a repository in GitHub.
Allows an easy set of the search path for packages available on GitHub:
`https://github.com/<github>/<githubRepo>/raw/.../`
By default lowercase name of installed package is used.
- `githubToken=` *Optional.* A fine-grained personal access token for GitHub.
When the value is non-missing it triggers GitHub API access to
private repositories. Of course the token used has to be configured
properly for the access.
Read GitHub documentation to learn how to create and setup your token:
`https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/
keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/
managing-your-personal-access-tokens
#creating-a-fine-grained-personal-access-token`
(lines break added for easier reading)
Public repos do not need authentication.
[NOTE!] This feature is experimental in this release.
**Loading options:**
- `loadPackage=` *Optional.* Indicates if requested package should be loaded too
or only installed. Dependencies are only installed.
Default value of zero (`0`) means "No", one (`1`) means "Yes".
- `force=` *Optional.* Indicates if requested package should be reloaded
even if it was already loaded to the session.
Default value of zero (`0`) means "No", one (`1`) means "Yes".
- `ignoreDepVer=` *Optional.* Indicates if packages versions in dependencies list
should be ignored and the latest available version be used.
Default value of zero (`0`) means "No", one (`1`) means "Yes".
