Yet another Yogurt - An AUR Helper written in Go

Packages

yay yay-bin GitHub license

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

  • yay <Search Term> presents package selection menu
  • yay -Qstats delivers system statistics
  • yay -Cd cleans unneeded dependencies
  • yay -G downloads PKGBuild from ABS or AUR
  • yay --gendb generates development package DB used for devel updates.
