![]() Currently the foundation for a new fuller argument parsing has been implemented in parser.go. Most of the parsing is now done through the argParser object instead of seperate arrays for options and packages. The rest of the code still expects the old system so I have left most of the operations unimplemented for now until I redo it with the new system. Currently only '-S' and number menu have any functionality for testing purposes. This new system parses arguments fully instead of just looking for predefined strings such as: '-Sqi' '-Siq'. This allows: '-Syu', '-S -y -u', '--sync -y -u' to all be parsed as the same. This system tries to be as similar to pacman as possible, eventually aming to fully wrap pacman, allowing yay to be used instead of pacman in all instances. The current implementation is not as strict as pacman when checking arguments. If you pass --someinvalidflag to yay then yay will simply ignore it. The flag should still be passed to pacman which should then cause an error. Although operations '-S' '-R' '-U' ect. are checked to make sure you can not try to use two operations at once. conflicting flags such as: '--quiet' and '--info' will not raise an error and which options gains precedence is depend on the implementation. Another minor issue which is worth noting is. Due to the way double arguments are parsed: '-dd' '-cc' '--deps --deps' if you pass the long version and the short version: '-d --deps' yay will not realize its a double argument. Meanwhile pacman will reconise it when yay calls pacman. Currently there are a few things that need to be done before this new system can be fuly released: Reimplement all operations to use to new parsing system so that the new system is at least as functional as the old one Strip yay specific flags before passing them to pacman Move parts of config into the argument system and only use config for options that are meant to be saved to disk Move yay specific operations into its own operator '-Y' Update documentation to show the altered syntax |

Yet another Yogurt - An AUR Helper written in Go
Packages
There's a point in everyone's life when you feel the need to write an AUR helper because there are only about 20 of them. So say hi to 20+1.
Yay was created with a few objectives in mind and based on the design of yaourt and apacman:
- Have almost no dependencies.
- Provide an interface for pacman.
- Have yaourt like search.
- Minimize user input
- Know when git packages are due for an upgrade.
Features
- AUR Tab completion
- Search narrowing (
yay linux header
will first search linux and then narrow on header) - No sourcing of PKGBUILD is done
- The binary has no dependencies that pacman doesn't already have.
- Sources build dependencies
- Removes make dependencies at the end of build process
Custom Operations
