Overview

The following illustrates the directory structure of a basic software package within the Nyra framework.

.
├── bin/
├── src/
├── manifest.json
├── manifest-lock.json
├── property.json
└── ten_packages/
    ├── extension/
    │   ├── <extension_foo>/
    │   └── <extension_bar>/
    ├── extension_group/
    │   └── <extension_group_x>/
    ├── protocol/
    │   └── <protocol_a>/
    └── system/
        ├── <system_package_1>/
        └── <system_package_2>/

The required files may vary based on the programming language used. For instance:

• In a C++ project utilizing nyra_gn as the build system, a BUILD.gn file will be included.

• A Go project will typically include files such as go.mod and go.sum.

• In a Python project, a requirements.txt file is commonly present to specify dependencies.

NYRA Framework Software Package Types

Type	Description
App	Contains a NYRA app.
Extension group	Contains a NYRA extension group.
Extension	Contains a NYRA extension.
Protocol	Contains a NYRA protocol.
System	Contains a NYRA system package.

NYRA Framework Software Package Kinds

There are two primary types of software packages:

• Release package

• Development package

Relationship Between Package Types

• A release package is created from a development package through a build process.

• Adding source-related content to a release package transforms it into a development package.

• Conversely, removing source-related content from a development package produces a release package.

Key Difference

The directory structures of development and release packages are largely identical. The distinction lies in the inclusion of source-related content:

• A development package includes source-related files.

• A release package excludes these files.

Development package

The primary purpose of a development package is to develop NYRA software packages. For instance, if you want to create a new NYRA extension, you can modify an existing development package to achieve this. This is because the development package contains all the source-related content, enabling the creation of new NYRA software packages from it.

Release package

The primary function of a release package is to enable the creation and execution of graphs. Since it does not include build-related content, it is optimized for these tasks. However, a development package can also facilitate graph creation and execution while supporting additional functionality. As a result, the application scope of a development package is more expansive than that of a release package.
