Another bucket for scoop

🚧

It is still a Work in progress

🚧

What is Scoop

Scoop is a command-line installer for windows and will let you install the tools you know and love

What is a "Bucket" for Scoop

A "bucket" is simply a repository of applications that are shared to be known and installed using the Scoop cli

Does the applications are updated periodically

YES... We use an GitHub actions that execute many times a day to finds all the newest application versions available and updates the bucket.

Installing Scoop and use our "Bucket"

📝

Make sure PowerShell 5 (or later, include PowerShell Core) and .NET Framework 4.5 (or later) are installed

📝

It's really easy to install and configure Scoop to use our bucket. Just follow the code

Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -scope CurrentUser
Invoke-Expression (New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://get.scoop.sh')

scoop bucket add business 'https://github.com/brave-simpletons/scoop-the-business.git'

⚠️ If you do not have 'Git' installed, you will received this error : "Git is required for buckets" The solution is simple, install Git using the next command:

scoop install git

And now, you can retry the previous command: scoop bucket add business 'https://github.com/brave-simpletons/scoop-the-business.git' ⚠️

scoop search 7zip vscode

# scoop install app-name app-name2 [...]
scoop install 7zip vscode

# scoop uninstall app-name app-name2 [...]
scoop uninstall 7zip vscode

Updating

Updating scoop itself and the buckets

scoop update

#scoop update app-name app-name2 [...]
scoop update 7zip vscode

Cleaning the old app versions

Since the app can be installed separately, sometimes you could have a lot of version. It could be a good idea to done some cleanup using:

#scoop cleanup app-name app-name2 [...]
scoop cleanup 7zip vscode

Also you could clean the cache of the downloaded application for a specific app or for all

#scoop cache rm app-name [or *]
scoop cache rm 7zip

#scoop cache rm *
