Choco shows pretty old version 3.1.0 of scc

Ah yes... one of those things I forget to ever update.

Err if you want to submit a PR for it that would help. I don't think I set this up from memory and I have no idea how to actually update the choco sources for this.

[ahoehma]

I can try. But my choco-maintainer knownledge is below zero :-) Any hint for this. Sources? Or is this all manually? Just asking.

[boyter]

I honestly have no idea. It looks simple to do inside the scc repo where the choco stuff is, but I have no idea about submitting it.

[ahoehma]

Ok. Found it. "packages/chocolatey". I can try.

[boyter]

Let me know how you go! Maybe document it too... then I can keep it in line for you in the future.

[ahoehma]

Hui ... the existing information are not much :-) I have to understand how to build a choco-package first. Then may I can reproduce the building ... but then finally I guess you should upload this stuff to choco or?

[ahoehma]

@boyter I found something :-)

First there is a missing '/" in line 12 of packages/chocolatey/scc.nuspec:

<packageSourceUrl>https://github.com/boyter/scc/tree/master/packages/chocolatey/</packageSourceUrl>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------^

Then to create a choco package all we have to do is to run "choco pack" inside packages/chocolatey/.

$choco pack
Chocolatey v2.3.0
Attempting to build package from 'scc.nuspec'.
Successfully created package 'D:\Dev\git\privat\scc\packages\chocolatey\scc.3.3.5.nupkg'

I removed also all comments from chocolateyuninstall.ps1 and chocolateyinstall.ps1 as the comment inside these files tells.

# IMPORTANT: Before releasing this package, copy/paste the next 2 lines into PowerShell to remove all comments from this file:
#   $f='c:\path\to\thisFile.ps1'
#   gc $f | ? {$_ -notmatch "^\s*#"} | % {$_ -replace '(^.*?)\s*?[^``]#.*','$1'} | Out-File $f+".~" -en utf8; mv -fo $f+".~" $f

The question is now what is the result of building scc itself? Because I think something must be copied inside the choco-package. I'm not sure about this step. Is the docu "make install clean" still valid?

PS: docu: https://docs.chocolatey.org/en-us/create/create-packages/

Bämm ... I got something running :) - At least the installation ... so the whole process is not ready yet !

Neat progress.

I must confess I don't have a windows machine anymore to actually test this sort of stuff. I might need to setup a VM just for this sort of thing.

[avg-itmo-enjoyer]

@boyter See no progress for a long time. I could take this issue and try to fix it

[boyter]

Feel free! Its one of those ones I gladly hand over to someone!

[avg-itmo-enjoyer]

@boyter Surprisingly found out that you weren't maintainer of chocolatey package. So, wrote an email to previous maintainer - https://github.com/naveen521kk . And if he wouldn't reply - I'll contact chocolatey site admins (according to their protocol - https://docs.chocolatey.org/en-us/community-repository/users/package-triage-process/#the-triage-process)

[boyter]

Yes, its one of those things that I had no great desire to take over. I can if I have all the information, but it would be nicer if someone else could.

[naveen521kk]

I got an email from @avg-itmo-enjoyer today regarding this issue; I've pushed a version to chocolatey, see https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/scc/3.6.0. I've a automated flow to maintain few chocolatey packages and it was broken for a few days and I've fixed it in https://github.com/naveen521kk/au-packages/commit/3c8ae05315586d99a053d617fa3e937951631f65.

For the future, @boyter I can add you as a maintainer to the chocolatey package, do you have an account registered in chocolatey? If yes, please share your username so I could add you.

[avg-itmo-enjoyer]

Package rebuilt by @naveen521kk was successfully reviewed by admins. Version 3.6.0 should be available to install now, as I understand

[boyter]

Yay! Sorry about lack of response @naveen521kk been slammed at work. Im happy for you to look after it if you want.

Ill see about setting up an account sometime soon though.
