Your own, package manager, Jesus. 🎶
Someone to install your files,
Someone who compiles.
Your own, package manager, Jesus.
Cross-platform and you're all alone,
Flesh and bone by the command-o
TTY receiver,
I'll make you a believer.
*currently Pacman and Homebrew (but my DMs PRs are open!)
Jesus told his disciples: “There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions."
- Luke 16:1
Be like that man, and don't let your multiple package manager take all your time! Build your own cross-platform scripts, or use these!
Disclaimer: These scripts are for my personal use, written in a way that makes sense to me. I only open-sourced them as a joke and as an example of how reinventing your own wheel is not that hard sometimes, and comes with the benefit of doing just what you need it to do. For a more complete solution, check sysget or app.
Grab your favorite shell and get going:
git clone https://github.com/sebastiancarlos/pm-jesuscd pm-jesus./pm-install vim(as you should)
Optionally add to your PATH. (This can be done by running make install)
