[WINDOWS] Chocolatey and/or WinGet deployment #261

Closed God-damnit-all closed 1 year ago

God-damnit-all commented 1 year ago

Would you consider adding deployment to Chocolatey and/or WinGet?

antonmedv commented 1 year ago

I found https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/fx-win but looks like it not very popular.

Huh. So apparently there is also https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/fx, maintained by the same person, but apparently an older version got stopped by a reviewer asking what the difference was between this package and fx-win package, and the maintainer never responded so it's now in limbo. Weird.

I recommend contacting the site admins and asking if you could be the new maintainer of the fx package. It will probably be approved since you're the developer of the software.

I'm not very familiar with chocolatey. May you can contact them and maintain the distribution?)

I doubt they would turn it over to anyone but the original developer without jumping through a whole bunch of hoops.

There's still winget, though.

I contacted admins of choco. They told me that I need to contact the original maintainer of fx. I'm not very interested in it. But you can try to do it if you want.

For now we have scoop https://scoop.sh/#/apps?q=fx&id=b69156e69fee7744f7fe2ad3e86293a238d3433e Also will add info on how to install fx on windows via Go.
