# miaur

A lightweight AUR helper written in pure Bash. No helper compilation required.

Its everyday commands follow paru, including `-Syu`, `-S`, `-Ss`, `-Qua`, and `-G`.

## Install

```bash
git clone https://github.com/WHC2006/miaur.git
cd miaur
./install.sh
```

One command:

```bash
bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/WHC2006/miaur/main/install.sh)
```

Install for the current user under `~/.local`:

```bash
./install.sh --user
```

The installer adds the required packages automatically: `base-devel`, `git`, `curl`, and `jq`.

## Upgrade

Already installed (preferred):

```bash
miaur self-update --noconfirm
```

One-line reinstall from GitHub (same as install; overwrites the current prefix):

```bash
bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/WHC2006/miaur/main/install.sh)
```

User install:

```bash
bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/WHC2006/miaur/main/install.sh) --user
```

## Usage

```bash
miaur                 # Upgrade everything (same as -Syu)
miaur foo             # Search and select packages interactively
miaur -S <package>    # Install a package
miaur -Ss <query>     # Search packages
miaur -Qua            # List available AUR upgrades
miaur -Sua            # Upgrade AUR packages only
miaur -G <package>    # Download a PKGBUILD
miaur --noconfirm -Syu  # Upgrade without prompts
miaur self-update     # Update miaur from Git
```

Run `miaur -h` for more options.

## Configuration

The optional configuration file is `~/.config/miaur/miaur.conf`. See `config/miaur.conf.example`.

Self-update reads `RepoUrl` / `Branch` (or `MIAUR_REPO` / `MIAUR_BRANCH`) when set.
