alabaster 1.8.0
This is an umbrella package for the alabaster framework that serves as an installation target to ensure that all (known) alabaster.* packages are installed. Doing so is necessary because various functions in alabaster.base dynamically identify the packages required to (un)serialize a particular resource. By installing all alabaster.* packages at once, we ensure that the dynamic look-up does not fail due to a missing package.
This umbrella is only provided for convenient installation and is not otherwise necessary for the functioning of alabaster framework. In fact, advanced users and package/application developers may prefer to install their required alabaster.* packages individually rather than relying on this umbrella. This reduces the number of dependent packages that need to be installed, which is possible in scenarios where a limited subset of resource types are to be processed.
