Stupid Fast Scoop Utils

Note

This is still under development. It currently provides faster alternatives to most, but not all, Scoop commands. All breaking changes will only occur in v2.0 and with proper deprecation warnings.

Super fast replacements and additions to scoop commands written in Rust

Installation

scoop bucket add extras

scoop install sfsu

Hook

You may set up the hooks to use the scoop commands normally

Add the following to your Powershell profile

Invoke-Expression (&sfsu hook)

You can also optionally disable certain hooks via the --disable <COMMAND> flag

Invoke-Expression (&sfsu hook --disable list)

It also supports Bash in WSL and MSYS2

Add the following to your .bashrc (or its equivalents, i.e .zshrc) file

source <(sfsu.exe hook --shell bash)

Nushell is also supported. Run the following command save it to a file.

sfsu hook --shell nu | save -f path/to/some/file.nu

Then source it in your config.nu (situated in path $nu.config-path).

source path/to/the/file.nu

The above disable demonstration also works

Building yourself

Initial setup

Before you get started make sure you

• Read the Contributing Guide
• Read the Code of Conduct

Prerequisites

• Rust as per rust-toolchain.toml
  • Prerequisites for the msvc toolchain are also required. This generally means you will need to install Visual Studio.
• Just
• Powershell
• Install pre-commit to run the pre-commit hooks

Build instructions

• Run just setup
• Run cargo build to build the project

Long Term Goals

I have a couple of long term goals.

Firstly, I want to create a Rust library to help interacting with Scoop from code. This library would allow for things like installing packages, running updates, etc. It will likely start by providing a function to get the Scoop install path, but hopefully over time it will grow into a fully fledged library, which is used internally by sfsu to interact with Scoop.

My other long term goal is to create a Scoop replacement for those who want it, in a similar vein as Shovel. This is a fairly large undertaking and will definitely take me a lot of time, so this is a very long term goal, and may never happen. Despite this I never really plan to replace Scoop. It is a great package manager and if anything sfsu would just be a command you can run instead of Scoop, but would run on Scoop installations.

In the meantime I will continue working on this independently of Scoop as a collection of seperate tools that work in conjunction with Scoop.
