The goal is to provide a fast and easy to use addition to scoop.
The main inspiration is the fact that scoop doesn't do proper cleaning of cache and installed apps and the search is slow as hell, there's also no autocompletion.
Additionally, this library can be used as a go package, providing spoon functionallity and some low level scoop functionallity.
Manual Installation
- Install scoop
- Install spoon
go install github.com/Bios-Marcel/spoon/cmd/spoon@latest - Enable autocompletion by adding this to your powershell profile:
spoon completion powershell | Out-String | Invoke-Expression
CLI Progress
Rough overview of progress on the command line interface. Commands are basically either fully fledged custom implementations or wrappers around scoop. The wrappers are there to provide autocomplete or add feature on top that run before / after the actual scoop commands.
For now, the global mode isn't support for custom commands, as I personally don't use that feature for now.
Some commands will also probably never be fully completed. Such as alias, as I don't see the value personally. However, you are free to contribute. The commands are roughly ordered by priority.
All unknown commands are delegated to scoop by default.
| Command | Implementation Type | Autocomplete | Changes |
|---|---|---|---|
| help | Native | ✅ | |
| search | Native | ✅ | * Performance improvements * JSON output * Search configuration |
| install | Wrapper | ✅ | |
| uninstall | Wrapper | ✅ | * Terminate running processes |
| update | Wrapper | ✅ | |
| bucket | Wrapper | ✅ | * bucket rm now supports multiple buckets to delete at once |
| cat | Native | ✅ | * Alias manifest |
| status | Wrapper | ✅ | |

Search
The search here does nothing fancy, it simply does an offline search of
buckets, just like what scoop does, but faster. Online search is not supported
as I deem it unnecessary. If you want to search the latest, simply run
scoop update; spoon search <app>.
The search command allows plain output and JSON output. This allows use with
tools such as jq or direct use in powershell via Powershells builtin
ConvertFrom-Json.
