Add new pin command for current version only #1997
Comments
Not sure what exactly this means, but maybe I need to read it a few times. |
Basically, currently there is just the "pin" command, which tells chocolatey to ignore all future updates. What I'm suggesting is one or more new pin-related commands to accomplish any one of the following, depending on what the user wants to do exactly (in addition to the current action of ignoring ALL future updates):
For the GUI, probably the best way to do all of this would be to simply have it pop up a dialog when an app is pinned, asking how long to pin for and what to do once action is needed. So for example, I right-click on "Example App" v1.2 and select "Pin" and it shows a dialog that asks the following: Pin Duration: Action to take when pin expires: Obviously doing this via the CLI would be different, but could probably just be done with the "pin" command and parameters, such as "pin /indef /auto" or "pin /major /ask" but the GUI example should at least help explain what I mean. Hopefully that helps clear it up. Let me know if I can clarify anything further. |
The feature request to add functionality to pin to skip the next version already exists here at #217 |
Duplicate of #217 |
As mentioned in #730 (chocolatey/ChocolateyGUI#730 (comment)), add a separate pin command for the current new version only, so that it won't update, or ask to update, until the next version. Example commands might be "choco pintemp" or "choco pinver." And once this is done, corresponding entries should be added in the GUI context menu.
A couple additional thoughts to consider:
