AbaClient Chocolatey Package

This repository contains the source code for a Chocolatey package that installs and updates the AbaClient from Abacus Business Software. Feel free to make adjustments and improvements to the code in this repository.

Installation

You can install the AbaClient package using Chocolatey. Make sure you have Chocolatey installed on your system. If you don't have it, you can get it from chocolatey.org. Once Chocolatey is installed, run the following command in your command prompt or PowerShell:

choco upgrade abaclient

Updating the Package

To release a new version of the AbaClient package, follow these steps:

1. Update the version number in the chocolateyinstall.ps1 file. Modify the $version variable to match the new version. For example:

$version = '3.0.940'

2. Update the checksums of the new installation files in the chocolateyinstall.ps1 file. Modify the $checksums variable accordingly.

$checksums = @{
  en = 'a5abc89b5084a5d1bf96e3cf9d401748f062564a2421d883ca80792de761822a'
  de = '497da4cc77207f9e349fb10f60f9d549b93657a596ee343a127e39d41ba1ad0e'
  fr = 'abeb6369c691bb8fc014ad10815cc95a396a2f9c6c96bb154e08bb57aed4c25d'
  it = 'e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855'
}

3. Create a new GitHub tag that matches the new version number. For example:

git tag 3.0.940

4. Commit your changes to the repository. Make sure you have staged all the changes you made in chocolateyinstall.ps1 and adapt the path in the git add command to the actual location of your chocolateyinstall.ps1 file:

git add tools/chocolateyinstall.ps1
git commit -m "Update version to 3.0.940"

5. Push the committed changes and the new tag (with --tags) to the remote repository.

GitHub Actions will automatically build and publish the updated package to Chocolatey based on the newly created tag.
