We should be able to mask some versions.

If a distribution changes it's naming scheme, we might want to have 2 distributions defined with the proper templates.

In this case we want to add filters to those distributions so they just handle the proper versions.

For instance, we could suggest to install ketal using kubectl krew install get-all (recommended by the author).

Add support for statically specified versions

binenv install taskctl 1.4.2
2021-05-01T10:04:00+02:00 ERR unable to install "taskctl" (1.4.2) error="unable to download binary at https://github.com/taskctl/taskctl/releases/download/v1.4.2/taskctl_1.4.2_linux_amd64.tar.gz: 404 Not Found"

Correct URL is https://github.com/taskctl/taskctl/releases/download/1.4.2/taskctl_1.4.2_linux_amd64.tar.gz

... download/v1.4.2... vs. ... download/1.4.2 ..

When no binaries matches, we should print a warning.
We probably should no create a shim is not versions are present

Trying to follow the README to install binenv on Linux I get this error:

./binenv update --cache
Error: unknown flag: --cache

Removing the cache flag seems to work though.

Thanks!

Hi,
i continue to add tools which are used in various projects in our organization. i have a few issues again =)

1. i often get on update this error for packer:
   020-11-29T09:56:56Z WRN ignoring invalid version for "packer" error="Malformed version: nightly"
   Do you plan to fix this? is this fixable? would you recommend for me to look into the code?
2. i wanted to add k3sup when i also add k3d, but what do i do, when the linux version does not conform to the naming convention like in https://github.com/alexellis/k3sup/releases/tag/0.9.11 ? is there any way to work with this? or should i open an issue with the project?
3. When there is windows, there may be an .exe, is the exeextension for linux just zero characters then?
4. i am a little bit unsure how to progress with rust projects which seem to adhere to this release structure: https://github.com/sharkdp/fd/releases/tag/v8.1.1 Should i use the unknown-linux-architecture? in the tar.gz files there are more things than just the binary, will this work with type tgz and binaries: - fd?
5. when i just type tgz, but it's zip on windows, does your extraction strategy automatically fit this to the platform (like perhaps with exeextension?)
6. how do i progress when there are multiple binaries in the tar gz? shall i name then in binaries:? and what if they are in a subdirectory like in the project with https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kubebuilder/releases/download/v2.3.1/kubebuilder_2.3.1_linux_amd64.tar.gz

Hello! Thanks for binenv.
How install app to /usr/local/bin?

Hi,
due to some problems i followed your steps again in a vagrant box and after downloading and chmoding the binary i got that error request:
vagrant@debian10:~$ ./binenv update updating distributions 76% |..... | (57/75, 4 it/s) [16s:5s]2020-11-23T15:21:15Z ERR unable to fetch versions for "stern" error="github rate limit is close: remaining 4 of 60; please retry after 2020-11-23 16:20:59 +0000 UTC"

it looks like i get an error with the distributions. i am not sure, why this happens. i have not much requests to github atm.
could it be that fetching your LATEST binenv creates some problem? should you at least use a binenv from a release where all the distributions are verified? or is it another problem?

Hi,

Currently aws-iam-authenticator isn't available via binenv. It would be really nice if it could be added. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/install-aws-iam-authenticator.html

Thanks

https://github.com/securego/gosec/releases/tag/v2.6.1

Many people will use this for generating environments or docker containers (as do i), fetching a github token for that would be out of the question.
would it be possible to fetch distributions.yml from some branch or tag? like

binenv update --raw --project devops-works/binenv --branch develop

would fetch https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devops-works/binenv/develop/distributions/distributions.yaml and use that.
because updating single applications is normally not a problem and installing them. but updating all the distributions file will always run into a ratelimit. or the tool tries alternatively adhere to the ratelimits...

Hello! Thanks for binenv
Can add https://github.com/mazen160/tfquery to binenv?

Installation
mazin@hackbox$> git clone https://github.com/mazen160/tfquery.git
mazin@hackbox$> cd tfquery
mazin@hackbox$> python3 setup.py install
or

mazin@hackbox$> pip install git+https://github.com/mazen160/tfquery

Windows support is quite some work (.exe everywhere, no real symlinks, no executable replacing, different compression format for many distributions...) for a non-existent user base.

We are not willing to spend time for this platform. If anyone is willing to do it; please go ahead.

Otherwise, we'll remove windows-related stuff (.exe templating, windows speficics in distributions.yaml, cross-compilation) early 2021.

Hi, i have a couple of suggestions of binaries i use in several projects:

• fzf https://github.com/junegunn/fzf a great commandline tool
• pyenv https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv with that you can manage multiple python installations
• lens https://github.com/lensapp/lens graphical kubernetes client
• github-cli https://github.com/cli/cli .. :D
• signify https://github.com/aperezdc/signify tool for signing binaries
• https://github.com/artipie/artipie/ artefact manager which i use
• minio https://github.com/minio/minio s3 storage "emulator"
• yq https://github.com/mikefarah/yq like jq but with yaml

i am not sure if you can do this stuff too, but perhaps they will do releases one day:

• hashpipe https://github.com/jbenet/hashpipe verifies signatures
• gron https://github.com/tomnomnom/gron really great if you wanna grep json
• distrib-dl (https://github.com/nodiscc/distrib-dl or https://gitlab.com/nodiscc/distrib-dl, last one seems to be newer) with this you can download distribution iso images verified.
• polynimbus https://github.com/polynimbus/polynimbus another cloud deployment tool

and another idea, did you think about installing other package managers? like

• nix pkg manager
• homebrew for /linuxbrew for linux
• python pip ? https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/

the second and third blocks are just suggestions. i am glad either way, i will DEFINITELY use your tool. Thanks for this!

Hi,
it's me again :)
i asked the arkade project (which concentrates on kubernetes binaries) if they coulde change their deployment:
alexellis/arkade#298
and they mentioned that they and others have a similar (usual) naming process. Now my question is, is adding arkade easy and if yes, is there already a binary managed with binenv in distributions.yaml which has the same publication strategy as arkade? if not, how hard would it be to write a strategy for that?

This would allow fetching distributions.yaml from the develop branch

After installing docker-compose, I can't run it even though accessing the binary directly works fine.

$ binenv install docker-compose
2020-12-03T13:51:28+01:00 WRN version for "docker-compose" not specified; using "1.27.4"
fetching docker-compose version 1.27.4 100% |███████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████| (12/12 MB, 5.462 MB/s)

$ docker-compose up
[56249] Cannot open self /home/rick/.binenv/docker-compose or archive /home/rick/.binenv/docker-compose.pkg

This would allow to search if a binary is available in binenv without having to use versions and then search through the output to find it.

https://github.com/guptarohit/asciigraph

go get vitess.io/vitess/go/cmd/vtctlclient

https://github.com/juicedata/juicefs

Please add https://github.com/ogham/dog Command-line DNS client

May be add convenience flags:

• add -i (--install) flag in update command; this would install the latest distribution version after the update is performed
• add -u (--update) flag in install command; this would update the distribution list before installing the version( latest of specified one)

We could do things like binenv install terraform -u instead of binenv update terraform && binenv install terraform.

This could be nice, but could also make the tool a bit confusing just to save some keystrokes.

The installation of naabu fails in the latest version 2.0.3:

binenv install naabu 2021-04-27T06:44:38Z WRN version for "naabu" not specified; using "2.0.3" 2021-04-27T06:44:38Z ERR unable to install "naabu" (2.0.3) error="unable to download binary at https://github.com/projectdiscovery/naabu/releases/download/v2.0.3/naabu_2.0.3_linux_amd64.tar.gz: 404 Not Found"

Reason: Project switched the filename deliminator from underscore to dash

Normally I would just fix it and open a PR but this only affects the latest version so changing it would break all older versions.

Any ideas of how to fix it?

binenv install binenv => install latest version

Installing binenv should be simplified to single command.

We can implement it as installer bash script.

wget -O - http://website.com/my-script.sh | bash

or other, as described here: https://serverfault.com/a/890417/638586

Simpler installation is very important for user adoption.

Add option to upgrade all installed binaries

Workaround :

for d in $(binenv versions -f | grep -v ^# | cut -d'=' -f1); do binenv install $d; done

https://github.com/zricethezav/gitleaks

We should check the rate limit and queries left and stay below threshold.

Hello,
i start after a while stumbling often enough with sudo and tools i installed with binenv. Can you add a documentation which best practice you would recommend, so tools are usable with sudo? because otherweise minikube for example is not really usable

Add support for single-gzipped binaries

Hi,

I find myself on an M1 Mac and would love a native binary for the M1 chip.

Thanks!

To avoid having users being rate limited by accident, we might change the default behavior to use remote cache and have an explicit --nocache flag to fetch release list for every distributions.

Finish mappers implementation.

Hello! Thanks for binenv.
Please add install pulumi by binenv.

https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/releases

some distributions might have different archive format depending on architecture (e.g. https://github.com/sharkdp/fd/releases)

it would be great to be able to handle this.

currently cache.json is in ~/.config/binenv/, it might be better to move it in ~/.cache/binenv/

Implement OS/architecture exclusions

We really need that --debug flag

https://gitlab.com/leucos/toji

bienv does not currently work in sudo situations. For instance:

sudo termshark -i eth0

fails, as weel as

sudo $(which termshark)

One way to make it work would be to completely dereference the binary, e.g.

sudo ~/.binenv/binaries/termshark/2.2.0 -i eth0

A new expand command would allow retrieving the proper path for commands:

sudo $(binenv expand termshark) -i eth0

(unless we find a better solution)

https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/sonobuoy

When in a directory with a .binenv.lock, binenv install should install required versions.
