How it works

The Atom Chocolatey package simply kicks off the AtomSetup.exe installer. Atom will automatically update once installed so you don't need to run cup Atom to upgrade.

Building

To build an Atom chocolatey package, you'll need access to a Windows machine with the following tools:

Requirements

• Chocolatey
  • You will need to close and reopen your command prompt or PowerShell window after installing.
• node.js 0.10.x
• Grunt
• Run apm install language-powershell to add PowerShell syntax highlighting to Atom (optional).

You will also need output from a Windows build of Atom published as a release.

Instructions

1. Clone this repository

2. Publish an Atom release that includes an AtomSetup.exe file

3. Build the Atom .nupkg file

   npm install
   grunt

4. Install the package locally (optional):

   grunt reinstall

Publishing

Follow these instructions to setup your API key so you can publish. You can find your API key in your chocolatey account page.

Once you've built the .nupkg file you can push it up the chocolatey by running:

cpush .\Atom.0.XXX.0.nupkg
