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 flashpoint-infinity -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 flashpoint-infinity -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
}

Exit $exitCode

Description

BlueMaxima's Flashpoint is a webgame preservation project dedicated to preserving as many experiences from web
platforms, including but not limited to Adobe Flash, as possible, so that they aren't lost to time.

Flashpoint utilizes a strong selection of open-source software. By combining the power of Apache, a custom-built
launcher, and our own application called the Flashpoint Secure Player, we can play web-based media in a quick,
user-friendly environment without leaving permanent changes or security holes on your computer.

Flashpoint Infinity is a smaller distribution of the Flashpoint Launcher (FPL) that allows you to download and play
content at will.

Package Parameters

  • /AddToDesktop - this puts a shortcut on your desktop to Flashpoint.

These parameters can be passed to the installer with the use of --params.
For example: --params "/AddToDesktop".

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.
