Archive all nightlies

[brson]

Having all historic nightlies available would make pinning to particular version of Rust more viable.

Even setting a limit on the number of versions archived, this would be helpful.

Please...

Starting tomorrow we will be uploading nightlies to https://static.rust-lang.org/dist/YYYY-MM-DD/ in addition to the current location.

Would it be possible to make folder indexable?

Iterate through all dates testing if the http get request works for specific night (That build exists, I've heard the nightlies may not actually occur at the feq of 24 hours.) Then just maintain an api that will return a json array of all nightlys. Is this what you mean?

[felipesere]

Haivng a JSON API would be great! What I am thinking about is hacking on rustup.sh and then writing something like "chruby" to switch between rusts. Having a JSON API will make it nicer to then support releases, rcs etc :)

Hi...is there an archive index or file_name format for all available nightly/beta/stable binaries?
Say, where/how could I download and how to find out which could be downloaded of versions such as
nightly-2011-11-11, 1.11.0-nightly, 1.11.0-beta.2, 1.11.0.stable?
