Deployment Method:

NOTE

This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.

1. Enter Your Internal Repository Url

(this should look similar to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/)


2. Setup Your Environment

1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment

Please see the organizational deployment guide

2. Get the package into your environment

  • Open Source or Commercial:
    • Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
    • You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download

3. Copy Your Script

choco upgrade czkawka -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'6.1.0-fixed'" --prerelease [other options]

See options you can pass to upgrade.

See best practices for scripting.

Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.

If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:


choco upgrade czkawka -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'6.1.0-fixed'" --prerelease
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE

Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
  Exit 0
}

Exit $exitCode

Description

com github qarmin czkawka

Czkawka (tch•kav•ka, hiccup) is a simple, fast and free app to remove unnecessary files from your computer.

Features

  • Written in memory safe Rust
  • Amazingly fast - due to using more or less advanced algorithms and multithreading
  • Free, Open Source without ads
  • Multiplatform - works on Linux, Windows and macOS
  • Cache support - second and further scans should be a lot faster than the first one
  • CLI frontend - for easy automation
  • GUI frontend - uses modern GTK 3 and looks similar to FSlint
  • Rich search option - allows setting absolute included and excluded directories, set of allowed file extensions
    or excluded items with the * wildcard
  • Multiple tools to use:
    • Duplicates - Finds duplicates based on file name, size, hash, hash of just first 1 MB of a file
    • Empty Folders - Finds empty folders with the help of an advanced algorithm
    • Big Files - Finds the provided number of the biggest files in given location
    • Empty Files - Looks for empty files across the drive
    • Temporary Files - Finds temporary files
    • Similar Images - Finds images which are not exactly the same (different resolution, watermarks)
    • Zeroed Files - Finds files which are filled with zeros (usually corrupted)

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).

Chocolatey Pro provides runtime protection from possible malware.
