gofind

This project has been archived in favor of a new package/dependency manager that I'm currently working on.

a tiny little package manager i made for fun, W.I.P

this is just a fork of my other account's repo, however this is the only one that will be updated.

Usage

This package manager can be used in the following ways:

On the command line,

gof find [github repo url] (gof help for more info)

This downloads the repo, unpacks it into a folder, and places the folder in the current working directory.

Or with the api,

N/A

This will allow you to easily download github files through the gofind api

Why?

I was bored, and thought that it would be fun to implement http(s) requests with file manipulating. Yes, there are also winget, curl, and other url downloaders/package managers that provide compatibility with other websites, but gofind's goal is to provide a simplified way to download exclusively GitHub and other Git based websites' repositories, either for editing for pull requests, or for forking repos. Eventually, I plan to make an all-out package system where you can publish your own packages by using a custom file extension for organization.

This project is currently getting a rework.

In order to optimize my code, I've decided to rework the project. Check out the current progress here.
