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 jre8 -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'8.0.421'" [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 jre8 -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'8.0.421'" 
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE

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

Exit $exitCode

- name: Install jre8
  win_chocolatey:
    name: jre8
    version: '8.0.421'
    source: INTERNAL REPO URL
    state: present

See docs at https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/win_chocolatey_module.html.


chocolatey_package 'jre8' do
  action    :install
  source   'INTERNAL REPO URL'
  version  '8.0.421'
end

See docs at https://docs.chef.io/resource_chocolatey_package.html.


cChocoPackageInstaller jre8
{
    Name     = "jre8"
    Version  = "8.0.421"
    Source   = "INTERNAL REPO URL"
}

Requires cChoco DSC Resource. See docs at https://github.com/chocolatey/cChoco.


package { 'jre8':
  ensure   => '8.0.421',
  provider => 'chocolatey',
  source   => 'INTERNAL REPO URL',
}

Requires Puppet Chocolatey Provider module. See docs at https://forge.puppet.com/puppetlabs/chocolatey.


4. If applicable - Chocolatey configuration/installation

See infrastructure management matrix for Chocolatey configuration elements and examples.

Package Approved

This package was approved as a trusted package on 29 Sep 2024.

Description

Java allows you to play online games, chat with people around the world, calculate your mortgage interest, and view images in 3D, just to name a few. It's also integral to the intranet applications and other e-business solutions that are the foundation of corporate computing. Please note you now need a Java License from Oracle to use unless installed for Personal Use and Development Use.

Note

This package installs the Java version offered at https://www.java.com. It also sets SPONSORS=0 (see docs).

If you wish to only install the 32-bit version of Java use the /exclude parameter. The switch to exclude 32-bit is /exclude:32 and to exclude 64-bit /exclude:64
For example: choco install jre8 -PackageParameters "/exclude:64" -y
You then need to tell Chocolatey to save that parameter for future upgrades by running choco feature enable -n=useRememberedArgumentsForUpgrades
This package no longer manually adds an environment variable.
x86 installs of Windows you can expect to see an error while reading the registry, but the script will still function normally.

This package can install 32-bit, 64-bit, or both versions. Find on GitHub

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).
