MSI windows package #5409
Comments
If someone was to do this work so it worked in GitHub actions (it runs on a Windows VM) then I would certainly merge it. I'm not going to attempt it though since I'm not very good at Windows and have made too many really bad Windows installers in the past ;-) |
hey,you can use NSIS to create a windows installer (*.exe) .this is very easy |
Do you want to send a PR @hahanonym |
Currently considering two options; Maybe will PR both if I have time (not now).
Which seems like a better option? |
NSIS makes a somewhat normal Windows installer, so I'd probably go for that. |
Update: currently have little time to write/test winget-supported installer.
|
I don't think I can PR for the whole Build process addition; It seems like too much for me now. |
If you can make a script to do the build, I can integrate it into the build process... |
Could not get it working correctly. De-assigning. |
An Example of MSI Building on CI

I don‘t try this solution in my work during use rclone。 |

Thanks! I have created a PR to add the Winget Releaser workflow to keep it up-to-date: |
@ncw I'd love to archive my repository in lieu of you incorporating my packaging at jcasale/rclone-msi. This is a dead simple msi to produce and offers many advantages over the executable-based installers. |
What problem are you are trying to solve?
Rclone would greatly benefit from an official .msi package on its release page.
Could be deployed on windows enterprise environment and used to create a winget manifest
How do you think rclone should be changed to solve that?
Create a MSI installer package
