  • a517b08 Fix #58 fix #59 If a user sets cache as "/", this gets converted to "C:\cygwin64". Instead of coverting back to "/", causing an error with "mkdir", we can just use "C:\cygwin64" as is. "DosFileWarning" now off by default, so it should not be necessary to convert cache path to Unix form. http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-07/msg00432.html

  • f2fa0ab mirror and cache operations mirror and cache are now operations rather than options. This is in line with both apt-get and pacman. Note this does mean some situations may require extra commands. For example if you want to temporarily change the mirror, you will need to do
    apt-cyg mirror http://alpha.com
    apt-cyg install bravo
    apt-cyg mirror http://charlie.com

  • 210e5a3 renamed: go-cyg.go -> go/go-cyg.go
  • 83b2425 Begin Go rewrite This may end up being nothing, but would like to rewrite apt-cyg in Go. This will be nice because you will end up with a single EXE file, similar to setup-x86_64.exe. The difference is that it will be totally command line like apt-cyg, but better because you can build all the requirements (wget, bunzip2, awk) right into the EXE. My concern right now is that I will probably have to write an INI parser, because Cygwin setup.ini is a weird format. Since I am just starting with Go I may not have the skill, we shall see.

  • cc9b2bd functions: download set-cache set-mirror apt-install apt-remove begin charlie Here are the changes, by line number:
    • remove "-c", keep long version
    • remove "-f" and "--file". I have never used this, and apt-get does does have it
    • remove "-m", keep long version
    • remove "--help", you can get help by just "apt-cyg"
    • lowercase ARCH variable, typically uppercase is for exported variables
    • use readonly variables where applicable
    • remove setup.ini-save, I see no point in this, and setup.exe does not use it
    • go back to using "[" over "[[", more portable
    • declare all variables local in "begin" function, this will prevent creation of global variables. Child functions still have access to local variables, but the only fix to that is running every function in a subshell, which is also not ideal
    • use "let" over "(("
    • stop using awk ENVIRON array. This became a problem because the array is only populated with exported variables. We do not want variables being passed to child "apt-cyg" processes just to play nice with awk
    • use "return" in functions instead of "exit", this will allow proper running of "charlie" function
    • add "check-packages" to some functions
    • stop creating "desc" files, you can parse this information out of setup.ini easy enough, and setup.exe does not create them either
    • generate md5 file from setup.ini, this way you can use it with md5sum instead of stdin
    • utilize "wget -rnH" to create directories
    • stop running "type -P" when searching for a file with "apt-cyg search". apt-get does not do this and it could be confusing
    • break "--cache" and "--mirror" out of the case statement and into their own functions. this will make the case statement less unwieldy
    • write directly to "installed.db" using "awk -i inplace"
    • function "charlie": this check for any leaked global variables and prints them to stdout just before the script finishes. this should help with debugging

2014-12-27 Steven Penny

  • c325aee modified: apt-cyg
  • db7bada refactor remove function
    • use one awk command instead of two, to determine if package is not removable
    • save comparison files to /etc/setup instead of /tmp
    • save as "essential.lst" and "$pkg.lst" respectively
    • use warnings where appropriate
    • new file list logic
      • extract file list
      • if package is essential, remove file list and exit
      • if package is not essential, remove package, remove file list and continue
    • new delete logic
      • remove all files
      • remove empty directories
    • utilize awk inplace where appropriate

  • 44ed47e modified: README.md
  • 61ae91a Remove wget dependency apt-cyg has had a long standing circular dependency with wget. This is because Base Cygwin does not include wget or curl. I have mentioned before workarounds to this 41e1d911728653eaf314769ea29ea94df69a3702 However none were ideal. I have since discovered lynx, which can be used in a pinch to download files http://unix.stackexchange.com/a/83987 lynx has these features
    • pure command line, unlike setup-x86_64
    • works with "https://" URLs, unlike /dev/tcp
    • comes with Base Cygwin, unlike wget/curl If wget is not installed, lynx will be used as a fallback with a warning printed.

  • 8eb3151 Support standard input Can now pipe package names to apt-cyg, example echo bash | apt-cyg show If --file is provided as well, it will override stdin echo bash | apt-cyg show --file foo.txt Note the Linux analog "apt-cache show" does not provide this functionality.
  • 83cac78 category command This is similar to the command aptitude search '?section(shells)' http://askubuntu.com/a/473511

2014-10-26 Steven Penny

  • 7bee922 Never print "No packages found" with apt-cyg list

  • 8c91a53 Write to and read from setup.rc "last-cache" and "last-mirror" will now be written to and read from setup.rc, instead of the non-standard /etc/setup/last-{cache,mirror}.

2014-06-16 Steven Penny

  • 12f3947 Minor fix
  • b1ad202 Refactor download fucntion Some packages were being downloaded to wrong location. For example "gcc-core" is supposed to be found at release/gcc/gcc-core However it was being downloaded at release/gcc-core Packages will now be downloaded as directed by "setup.ini"

  • 59c5236 Simplify proxy check
  • 67658a5 Improve JSON parser
  • a58f4b6 JSON function
  • ed6092a New proxy logic
    1. create proxy file if not exist
    2. create array from proxy file if not exist
    3. if array is empty download proxy file
    4. shift continue unless country is US
    5. shift continue if proxy is slow
    6. shift continue if proxy is blocked by Google
    7. print successful proxy
    8. save remaining proxies to file

  • e5abc1c Use proper array for packages I think package names are not allowed to contain spaces anyway, but if they are it would cause apt-cyg to fail spectacularly. Some unquoted $pkg are still lingering but that is an easy fix.

2014-06-03 Steven Penny

2014-06-01 Steven Penny

  • a6d4d8f Minor edit "usage"
  • 1272ac4 Use sed to print blocks of text The array method works fine, but sed method uses less characters and is easier to read. Also it does support indenting, it would just need to be modified to sed '1d;$d;s/ //' or similar.

2014-05-31 Steven Penny

  • 200ce90 Search "devel" packages unless looking for ".exe" apt-cyg searchall will now only exclude "devel" packages if you are searching for ".exe" or similar.

2014-05-28 Steven Penny

  • c8fb260 Improve "depends" function
    • function will now print the packages at proper depths
    • added newline between each result if called with multiple packages

2014-05-27 Steven Penny

  • 3900245 listfiles download if necessary listfiles was only working on packages that were already installed. You should be able to list a packages files even if it is not installed, especially if it has already been downloaded. The function will now download the package if necessary, without installing, in order to view the package files. Other small changes
    • conditional echo instead of piping to "head" in certain loops
    • download function was exiting upon failure, when really it should just skip to next package
    • simplified a grep statement

2014-05-26 Steven Penny

  • 13a9f58 Download function Package download functionality has been moved into its own private function, to support future updates.

2014-05-25 Steven Penny

  • 6ec55ff msys2 create wrapper scripts The MSYS2 programs will not play nice with Cygwin paths. This change will create a wrapper script in "/usr/local/bin" for each ".exe" that runs the exe with a path it will recognize.
  • 530e70c msys2 correct awk statement Files are not always at field 15, they are always last field though.
  • 1ff704e msys2 listfiles command This is similar to the "dpkg --listfiles" command.
  • feffce1 change mode apt-msys2
  • d5a8c42 apt-msys2 This is a file similar to apt-cyg. It will install packages from the MSYS2 project. It will only be practical for packages from the "MINGW" repo, as packages from the "MSYS2" repo would require the MSYS2 dll. I have a need for this because Cygwin Tcl/Tk requires X11. MSYS2 Tcl/Tk does not require X11, so it can run much faster.
  • 461d595 Remove redundant license The license is already in the header of the file.

2014-05-24 Steven Penny

  • fbf531e Remove case statement by using functions instead of case statement
    • remove level of indentation
    • allow use of local variables via "local" keyword
  • ec36e46 Change default cache location apt-get uses /var/cache to store downloaded files http://askubuntu.com/q/178806/where-do-packages-installed-with-apt-get-stored This makes sense with Cygwin as well because Cygwin already has a /var/cache which is almost empty to start, compared to /setup which does not exist outside of apt-cyg.
  • 6a62641 Revise some awk statements

2014-05-21 Steven Penny

  • 73512e4 Restore noscripts option This is needed as per @kou1okada comment on 44e89c6
  • e0f31ae Improve "depends" awk statement, part deux

2014-05-20 Steven Penny

  • d124c46 Improve "depends" awk statement We can save a set of braces by using "continue". Also removed a spurious variable assignment.
  • a1cf729 depends command This is similar to the "apt-cache depends" command.

2014-05-19 Steven Penny

  • 4818a59 Normalize mirror directory User input was not being checked in any way. "mirror" must not have a trailing slash, while "mirrordir" must have a trailing slash before it is encoded. This is to match up with "setup-x86_64.exe" installer.

2014-05-15 Steven Penny

2014-05-14 Steven Penny

  • a9f9fea Minor edit This will allow some relief from that long line, especially if more commands are added.
  • c38e030 Minor cleanup
    • test commands directly instead of using temporary variable
    • test command directly instead of exit variable
  • f4d57c9 Minor fix GitHub highlighting GitHub is freaking about '' even though it is valid syntax. Using double backslash still works with "awk", and doesnt break the highlighting.
  • 1b3c49d Revise remove command
    1. print a list of all files and dependencies of those files used by apt-cyg
    2. if any are found in the files list of the package to be removed, then fail Unrelated, added an echo each time a postinstall script is run, the name of the script
  • 3ecc4ee Update setup.ini when necessary If you tried to use this command apt-cyg install --mirror with a new mirror, it would fail because "apt-cyg install" no longer downloads setup.ini every time. Fix so that setup.ini will be downloaded if it does not already exist.
  • 44e89c6 Remove noscripts option
    • "--noscripts" was not advertised in the help, and is not really needed now that updates are done manually
    • moved the function inline as it was only being called once

2014-05-13 Steven Penny

  • c585c8e Allow remove wget wget is not included with base Cygwin, so I see no reason why it cannot be removed. Worst case it can be reinstalled using setup-x86_64.exe Also
    • removed some quotes where they were not needed
    • replaced a statement piping to Bash with more appropriate xargs statement

2014-05-11 Steven Penny

  • 2e6305c Add more filters for "searchall"

2014-05-05 Steven Penny

  • a2ca937 Update checkpackages function This function doesnt really need to exit, because package loops with no packages will simply exit the loop immediately. Also by removing the "exit" it allows to do cool stuff like if checkpackages
  • 1cfa858 listfiles command This is similar to the "dpkg --listfiles" command.

2014-05-04 Steven Penny

  • 97ae776 Stop regexing "apt-cyg show" Packages supplied to "apt-cyg show" must now match exactly. This is in line with "apt-cache show". Also if a package is not found it will now give a message.
  • 9f1fb56 Stop updating setup.ini Applies to apt-cyg install apt-cyg list apt-cyg show This is in line with these analogues apt-get install dpkg --list apt-cache show which do not run an update each time the command is called
  • 74da8e7 searchall, skip first line The "searchall" command was including the first line of the HTTP response when looking for package names, example Found 7 matches for /diff.exe If the search contained a "/" then the search itself would show up as a result package. New awk statement filters out first line.

2014-04-18 Steven Penny

  • 3d0f4a0 Fix install directory packages were installing to "$cache/$mirrordir" which I believe is a relic of pre 64-bit Cygwin. Packages now install to "$cache/$mirrordir/$ARCH" which is inline with the official Cygwin installer.
  • 7fedcba rdepends command This is similar to the "apt-cache rdepends" command.

2014-03-16 Steven Penny

  • 223654f searchall command This is similar to the "apt-file search" command, and almost identical to the "cygcheck --package-query" command. Instead of only search for a file from installed packages, it searches all available packages. I have included it as a separate command because it "wget"s cygwin.com and can be slow at times.

2014-03-14 Steven Penny

  • bbc30a0 Update README.md
  • 841924f Change "apt-cyg packageof" to "apt-cyg search" This puts apt-cyg more in line with "dpkg --search"
  • 29014aa Merge "find" and "list" commands "list" will now list all installed packages, or packages matching pattern if one is given. This puts it more in line with "dpkg --list"
  • ecef939 Change "apt-cyg describe" to "apt-cyg show" This puts apt-cyg more in line with "apt-cache show".
  • 8229393 Change "apt-cyg show" to "apt-cyg list" This puts apt-cyg more in line with "dpkg --list". The plan is to merge "apt-cyg show" and "apt-cyg find" into "apt-cyg list".

2014-03-09 Steven Penny

  • ca292c5 Minor cleanup
    • remove quote where possible
    • remove temporary variables where it makes sense
    • use single quote over double quote where possible

    • use "+=" where possible
    • use "type" instead of "which"
    • use "[[" construct where appropriate
  • b42a6cb Update dependency and arch checking Use more concise methods for both.

2014-03-07 Steven Penny

  • 41e1d91 bootstrap wget Currently apt-cyg has a circular dependency on wget. This can be resolved the following ways, but each has problems
    • setup-x86_64 you can run a command like "setup-x86_64 -qP wget" but this is not desirable because it just spawns the gui, which was probably what apt-cyg was designed to prevent in the first place
    • using /dev/tcp this is a good solution but does not work for "https://" URLs
    • using telnet this is a windows component but is disabled by default
    • using curl like wget, this does not come with base Cygwin
    • using powershell this is available for XP and later, but only comes preinstalled with Windows 7 and later This commit would allow a "wget" Bash function to be used if "wget.exe" is not found, for example http://github.com/svnpenn/dotfiles/blob/19b7b76/.bashrc#L54-L67 My function uses powershell, but a function using any of the above methods would work.

The only change required is when the setup file is fetched. The setup file itself contains the paths prefixed with either x86 or x86_64
