[Feature request] Chocolatey support #611

Open Kristinita opened 7 years ago

Kristinita commented 7 years ago

Please, add git-extras to Chocolatey — package manager for Windows. You will greatly facilitate the use of git-extras your users.

Benefits:

  1. Quick installation. Users need only print in preferable terminal command cinst git-extras -y.
  2. Users don't need to upgrade each program separately. Even if users have thousands programs, enough print in terminal cup all -y.
  3. If user reinstall Windows or begin to use other computer, user can quickly reinstall all programs, which he enjoyed. User can get list of commands use clist and then install programs cinst program1 git-extras program3.
  4. Quiet installing, update and removing.

Thanks.

A package manager for Windows! Great, it is sweet for the developers using Windows. I need to update my knowledge about Windows.

One little thing, @Kristinita , git-extras assumes coreutils installed(awk, curl, etc.) How can we manage these dependencies via Chocolatey?

hemanth commented 7 years ago

Isn't it part of GNU coreutils?

Kristinita commented 7 years ago

@spacewander, if dependency is a Chocolatey package, is possible install dependency with the package. See, for example, how to set AutoHotkey dependency for VeraCrypt package.

About Chocolatey package creating see Creating Chocolatey Packages page and, for example, my simple Chocolatey packages.

Thanks.

@hemanth Nice, so package git-extras is highly possible.

@Kristinita We require someone is famous with Windows and Chocolately. It will be welcome if you are willing to submit the pr. Would you give us a hand?

We require someone is famous with Windows and Chocolately.

It will be @Kristinita after she publishes this module to Chocolately 🤗

@spacewander , @hemanth , I create packages for some programs, but I don't understand, how to create Chocolatey package for git-extras.

  1. Could you say all git-extras dependencies?
  2. For Chocolatey we need .exe or .msi installation file (or zip-archive for portable files).

Could you realize that behavior?

  1. Windows user installed all dependencies.
  2. Windows user run .exe or .msi setup git-extras file and git-extras will be installed.
  3. Windows users may be begin to use git-extras without additional settings.

If it's possible, I may to create Chocolatey package.

Thanks.

@Kristinita Good question, and a big one.

  1. There is no clear requirement of git-extras... GNU-coreutils is a good start, but it may be a run-error-fix process.
  2. We can get the latest release from https://github.com/tj/git-extras/releases. But, there are bash scripts. Admittedly, bash script is not so mean portable. Most of them should be run via bash in Windows, but no all. Need to clean up git-extras before we package it.

@Kristinita I will come up with a dependency checklist tomorrow, so you may have a better starting line.

Cool! I feel we need to update our wiki with this table ^ :)
