update

update is a small script that updates apps from Apt, Pi-Apps, Flatpak, Homebrew, NPM, and the Snap Store, a.k.a. snapd.

Install

curl -s "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Crilum/update/main/install" | bash

This should work for most systems (Apt-based distros (not Alpine Linux, yet..), DNF-based distros, most other Linux distros, and MacOS). If it doesn't work on your system, create an issue (or even better, a PR), and I'll try to help.

There are two different ways to download the script, the first one is easier, but you can use the second one if you want.

Method 1. Use `wget` and download `update` directly, and copy the script to `/usr/local/bin/`:

  1. Make sure wget is installed:

    sudo apt install wget

  2. Download the latest version of update with wget:

    version="$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/Crilum/update/releases/latest | grep -oP '"tag_name": "\K(.*)(?=")')"
wget "https://github.com/Crilum/update/raw/v${version}/update"

  3. Move update to /usr/local/bin/:

    sudo mv update /usr/local/bin/update

  4. Make update executable:

    sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/update

Method 2. Use `git clone` and copy the script to `/usr/local/bin/`:

  1. Clone the latest release of the repository:

    version="$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/Crilum/update/releases/latest | grep -oP '"tag_name": "\K(.*)(?=")')"
git clone https://github.com/Crilum/update/ -b $version

  2. Or, if you have GitHub CLI:

    version="$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/Crilum/update/releases/latest | grep -oP '"tag_name": "\K(.*)(?=")')"
gh repo clone Crilum/update -- -b $version

  3. Copy the Update Script to /usr/local/bin/:

    cd update && sudo cp update /usr/local/bin/update

  4. Make it executable:

    sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/update

  5. Remove the cloned repository (This is optional):

    rm -rf update/

Uninstall

Just uninstall the package:

Apt based distros:

sudo apt remove update

Or, if your system doesn't have an update package:

Other linux:

sudo rm -f /usr/bin/update /usr/bin/up

MacOS:

sudo rm -f /usr/local/bin/update /usr/local/bin/up

and you're done!

Flags for update:

      --no-grep-args                       If this flag is specified, update won't remove arguments that are also packages from the update package list, i.e. 'apt'

Todo

  • make a unified install script.
  • Make a Releases tesing system, so when I release an update GitHub Actions tests installation.
  • Create Contributing.md.
  • Create pull request templates.
  • Create a editable configuration for all argument
  • Create a more reliable way to check for updates that doesn't depend on a variable in the script, or modify update2deb to edit the script and set the right version.
  • Make install uninstall update if it's already installed
