Hi @casz
I've heard of chocolatey, but I'm not very familiar with it. What's the use-case for it as Squirrel installs silently anyway? Are you wanting to make it simpler to deploy across machines, eg for enterprise?
Anyway, I see the atom github repository has a chocolatey project which was modified to call their Squirrel installler (https://github.com/atom/atom/issues/4526) - maybe that gives you a start for what to look into?
Sweet, I will have a look. Chocolatey is like apt-get or homebrew though for windows 😄
Looks like @meek2100 set up a chocolatey package for v2.8.0 a little while back :slightly_smiling_face:
@phw198 Let me know if you want any changes made or want to take it over. Right now, I just have it setup to support the basics (install/upgrade/uninstall) with chocolatey.
@meek2100 Might be helpful if you could add me (phw198) at least as a package maintainer?
Meanwhile, I've also submitted a PR for updating the checksum.
@phw198, I accepted your PR and updated the version with Package Fix Version Notation per Chocolatey's documentation (https://docs.chocolatey.org/en-us/create/create-packages) to force an update with the new checksum. I also sent "phw198" on Chocolatey a request to be a maintainer, so you should have an invite.
provide a chocolatey package for us silent installer lovers 😀 I'll help create it if I could tell me the secrets to installing it silently
