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/.

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 electrum -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" [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 electrum -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" 
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE

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

Description

Electrum

Electrum is an easy to use Bitcoin wallet. It protects you from losing coins in a backup
mistake or computer failure, because your wallet can be recovered from a secret phrase that
you can write on paper or learn by heart. There is no waiting time when you start the client,
because it does not download the Bitcoin blockchain.

Features:

  • Instant on: Your client does not download the blockchain. It uses a network of specialized servers that index the blockchain.
  • Forgiving: Your wallet can be recovered from a secret seed.
  • Safe: Your seed and private keys are encrypted on your hard drive. They are never sent to the servers.
  • Low trust: Information received from the servers is verified using SPV. Servers are authenticated using SSL
  • No downtimes: Your client is not tied to a particular server; it will switch instantly if your server is down.
  • Ubiquitous: You can use the same wallet on different computers, they will synchronize automatically.
  • Cold Storage: Sign transactions from a computer that is always offline. Broadcast them using a machine that does not have your keys.
  • Reachable: You can export your private keys into other Bitcoin clients.
  • Established: Electrum is open source and was first released in November 2011.

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.
