chromedriver 2.12 new port submission

[rockettj@…]

I've put together a Portfile for installing chromedriver. This is a WebDriver implementation for driving Google Chrome for testing purposes (i.e. with Cucumber/Watir).

Thanks.

Committed in r128018 with these changes:

• improved livecheck to return the actual new version
• used extract.mkdir yes instead of worksrcpath .
• set supported_archs i386 because what we're installing is a pre-compiled i386 binary
• set dist_subdir ${name}/${version} because this is an unversioned distfile
• rearranged and reformatted portfile slightly

This project is supposed to be open source, so if we could build from source instead of installing a pre-compiled binary, that would be preferable.

I would prefer that as well, but it's not simple. I'm working on another local branch to attempt it. The chromedriver code is embedded within the Chromium source tree, so I have to pull the entire Chromium tree and their build tools. I tried pulling their tree today and it took about 20 minutes to pull without any history over a fast connection. I'll see what I can do on that. Thanks for taking my submission.

Indeed that doesn't sound optimal. You should contact the developers of chromedriver and see if they would be willing to provide a standalone source tarball of it.
