# 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.
