x

Personal little experiment to write a little unified package manager facade.

This is just a funny little project and not destined at larger usage.

usage

An operation is done by using a token followed by the package name.

• Install a program: +<program>
• Remove a program: -<program>
• Update a program: ^<program>

examples

Let's say we want to install vim, remove neofetch and update gcc

$ x +vim -neofetch ^gcc

(you can chain as many operations as you want)

There's even a shortcut to update all installed packages:

$ x ^

Supported package managers

• Brew (will be used in case OS == MacOS)
• APT (will be used in case OS == linux)
• Chocolatey (will be used in case OS == windows)

Why?

... Because why not?

I want to install it

You shouldn't, but here's how to do it:

$ cargo install --path .
