The (Unofficial) Github Package Manager
Package management using Github repositories.
About
This tool was built to solve the problem of manually installing and managing software from Github Releases.
The aim of this tool is to provide these kinds of semantics to enable users to quickly install tools:
gpkg install github.com/${OWNER}/${REPO}
And over time easily and quickly update those same tools:
gpkg update github.com/${OWNER}/${REPO}
Installation
There are several methods available to install the gpkg cli, the simplest and fastest way is to install the latest release from our site:
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://gpkg.dev/install.sh | bash
Once you've installed gpkg this way it becomes self-hosting and going forward it can update itself with gpkg update self.
Add ~/.local/gpkg/bin to your PATH environment variable permanently at this point to run gpkg and other apps installed via gpkg.
Goals
To track current progress on check the Organization's Projects.
