Installpkg sounds like another distribution's command-I haven't used Slackware for a few years now, but it seems it might have been a Slack pkgtool command. In general, to install a tarball, you should untar it and then look at the README and INSTALL files in the tarball. Opening the console and console controls. Open the console in Visual Studio using the Tools NuGet Package Manager Package Manager Console command. The console is a Visual Studio window that can be arranged and positioned however you like (see Customize window layouts in Visual Studio).

homely.install.installpkg()¶

If you were writing a plain shell script to install your dotfiles, you mightalso include a few calls to e.g. brewinstall... to install your favouritesoftware packages. The installpkg() function can do this for you, and alsooffers the following advantages:

1. In installpkg, run kitchen init, which initializes Test Kitchen and installs the default Vagrant driver. The kitchen init command creates a YAML configuration file in installpkg named.kitchen.yml.Open the file in your favorite text editor. The.kitchen.yml file includes a platforms section that specifies which systems to run the recipes on.
2. After that, install slackpkg using the installpkg command. After install, you need to select ONE (and ONLY one) mirror to download packages from. Edit your /etc/slackpkg/mirrors and uncomment one of those lines or include your own mirror. Only FTP and HTTP mirrors are supported at the moment. Once you have selected a mirror, type.

• Automaticaly chooses between brew, yum, port or aptdepending on what’s available in your $PATH.
• Won’t hang on a sudo password prompt when there’s no TTY available.
• Automatic Cleanup!

installpkg(name=None,*,apt=None,brew=None,yum=None,port=None)

Install Pkg Ps3

name

The name of the package you want to install. If the package goes bydifferent aliases in different package manager repos then you should useeither A) the name of the main executable provided by the package, or B)the alias used by your favourite package manager.

apt=None

The alias to use when install using apt-getinstall. Defaults to name.Use False to stop installpkg() trying to install with apt-get altogether.

brew=None

The alias to use when install using brewinstall. Defaults to name.Use False to stop installpkg() trying to install with brew altogether.

yum=None

The alias to use when install using yuminstall. Defaults to name.Use False to stop installpkg() trying to install with yum altogether.

port=None

The alias to use when install using portinstall. Defaults to name.Use False to stop installpkg() trying to install with port altogether.

When the yum, apt-get or port package managers are being used, theywill be run as root using sudo. This means the call to installpkg()will fail if you don’t have sudo privileges, or when homely updateis run without a TTY or with the --neverprompt flag.

Note that installpkg() is lazy and doesn’t actually check with the packagemanager to see if a particular package is installed - it just checks to see ifan executable named name is in your $PATH.

Automatic Cleanup¶

Installpkg

installpkg() will only attempt automatic cleanup of a package if homelyinstalled the package originally. If you brewinstallack and then addinstallpkg('ack') to your HOMELY.py script, homely won’t installack (since it’s already installed) and therefore it will neverautomatically remove it.

The automatic removal may fail if you run homely update in a contextwhere no TTY is available, but your operating system’s package manager is e.g.yum and needs to be executed with sudo. If the automatic removal fails,homely won’t attempt to remove the package again later.

Also note that the automatic removal won’t remove other packages that wereinstalled as dependencies.
