It is pretty useful to versioning that the package management system like apt or yum.
But we have to manage ourselves about executables in GitHub Releases.
Examples:
cd /tmp
wget https://github.com/jiro4989/nimjson/releases/download/v1.2.8/nimjson_linux.tar.gz
tar xzf nimjson_linux.tar.gz
mkdir -p ~/bin
install -m 0755 ./nimjson_linux/bin/nimjson ~/bin/We have to run those commands if we want to upgrade one.
I want to resolve this problem.
relma can upgrade your executables that installed with relma.
At first, you have to run relma init to create configuration file.
Next, executables in GitHub Releases will be installed when you run relma init <release_url>.
At default, symbolic links will be created in $HOME/relma/bin.
The entities will be stored in $HOME/relma/releases/<owner/repo>.
Examples:
relma init
relma install https://github.com/jiro4989/nimjson/releases/download/v1.2.8/nimjson_linux.tar.gz$HOME/relma/releases.json has informations of installed releases.
And you can install releases with releases.json.
Examples:
relma install -f releases.jsonPlease you run below if you want to upgrade all releases.
relma update
relma upgrade --yesPlease you run below if you want to upgrade specific releases.
relma upgrade --yes <owner/repo>
# ex:
# relma upgrade --yes jiro4989/nimjson<owner/repo> is the release name in relma.
Please run below if you want to check those.
relma listPlease you run below if you want to uninstall specific releases.
relma uninstall <owner/repo>
# ex:
# relma uninstall jiro4989/nimjsonYou can install relma if you have Go compiler.
But relma --version always prints dev.
Run below:
go install github.com/jiro4989/relma@latestOr, you can download and install from GitHub Releases.
