Simply install package with pacapt -S htop or pacapt install htop
on any Linux, BSD, OpenWrt or Mac OS machines.

This script shouldn't be installed on an Arch-based system.
On cave-based system, bash is required.
You can download the stable script and make it executable.
On non-Arch-based system, you may use pacman as script name instead of pacapt.
$ sudo wget -O /usr/local/bin/pacapt https://github.com/icy/pacapt/raw/ng/pacapt
$ sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/pacapt
$ sudo ln -sv /usr/local/bin/pacapt /usr/local/bin/pacman || true
If you have curl and want some interesting output:
# WARNING: Don't do this on Arch-based system!
$ curl -Lo /usr/bin/pacman https://github.com/icy/pacapt/raw/ng/pacapt
$ chmod 755 /usr/bin/pacman
For non-system package manager, you need to create symbolic links
$ ln -s /usr/local/bin/pacapt /usr/local/bin/pacapt-tlmgr
$ ln -s /usr/local/bin/pacapt /usr/local/bin/pacapt-conda
You can also use shorter links:
$ ln -s /usr/local/bin/pacapt /usr/local/bin/p-tlmgr
$ ln -s /usr/local/bin/pacapt /usr/local/bin/p-conda
noting the suffix (e.g., -tlmgr, -conda) is mandatory.
For system package manager
- Update package database:
pacapt -Sy, orpacapt update - Install a package:
pacapt -S foo, orpacapt install foo - Search a package:
pacapt -Ss foo, orpacapt search foo - Remove a package:
pacapt -R foo, orpacapt remove foo - Upgrade system:
pacapt -Su, orpacapt upgrade - Remove orphans:
pacapt -Sc, orpacapt autoremove foo - Clean up:
pacapt -Sccorpacapt -Sccc, orpacapt clean
For non-system package manager: Similar as above, however you need to call correct script name, e.g.,
- Install a Conda package:
pacapt-conda -S foo - Remove a Conda package:
pacapt-conda -R foo

Some popular options of the original ArchLinux's pacman program
are supported and listed in the table in the next section.

sysgetisa front-end for every package manager, written inC++. It provides some basic features to manipulate packages on your system.pacaptrwas originally started as aRustport of this project (pacapt) (See also #126), now it's growing with their own new features and support.
Make sure you read some instructions in CONTRIBUTING.md.
A development script can be compiled from the source code.
$ git clone https://github.com/icy/pacapt.git
$ cd pacapt
# switch to development branch
$ git checkout ng
# compile the script
$ ./bin/compile.sh > pacapt.dev
# check if syntax is good
$ bash -n pacapt.dev
$ sudo install -m755 ./pacapt.dev /usr/local/bin/pacapt
