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 nushell.install -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 nushell.install -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

- name: Install nushell.install
  win_chocolatey:
    name: nushell.install
    version: '0.104.0'
    source: INTERNAL REPO URL
    state: present

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


chocolatey_package 'nushell.install' do
  action    :install
  source   'INTERNAL REPO URL'
  version  '0.104.0'
end

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


cChocoPackageInstaller nushell.install
{
    Name     = "nushell.install"
    Version  = "0.104.0"
    Source   = "INTERNAL REPO URL"
}

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


package { 'nushell.install':
  ensure   => '0.104.0',
  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.

NOTE

This package is likely a meta/virtual (*) or an installer (*.install) or portable (*.portable) application package.

  • Meta/virtual (*) - has a dependency on the *.install or the *.portable package - it is provided for discoverability and for other packages to take a dependency on.
  • Portable (*.portable/*.commandline (deprecated naming convention)/*.tool (deprecated naming convention)) - usually zips or archives that require no administrative access to install.
  • Install (*.install/*.app (deprecated naming convention)) - uses native installers, usually requires administrative access to install.

Package Approved

This package was approved as a trusted package on 30 Apr 2025.

Description

Nushell, or Nu for short, is a new shell that takes a modern, structured approach to your commandline. It works
seamlessly with the data from your filesystem, operating system, and a growing number of file formats to make it easy
to build powerful commandline pipelines.

Features

  • Control your system with powerful pipelines Pipelines let you command your system like never before. Your system
    belongs to you, and it awaits your command
  • Everything is data Rather than having the need to remember all the parameters to all the commands, we can just use
    the same, regardless of where it came from
  • Powerful Plugins Nu can't come with everything you might want to do with it, so you can extend using its powerful
    plugin system

Package Parameters

The following package parameter can be set:

  • /AddToDesktop - add a desktop shortcuts for Nu Shell. By default the shortcuts will be added for all users
    e.g. choco install nushell.install --package-parameters="/AddToDesktop"
  • /AddToStartMenu - add entries to the Start Menu for Koodoo Reader. By default the shortcut will be added for all
    users
    e.g. choco install nushell.install --package-parameters="/AddToStartMenu"
  • /User - where the user parameter is specified any shortcuts created (using /AddToDesktop or /AddToStartMenu)
    will only be added for the current user
    e.g. choco install nushell.install --package-parameters="/AddToDesktop /User"

To have Chocolatey remember parameters on upgrade, be sure to set choco feature enable -n=useRememberedArgumentsForUpgrades.

Notes

  • Nushell only provides a 64-bit version
  • This package is automatically updated using the Chocolatey Automatic Package Update Model (AU).
    If you find it is out of date by more than a day or two, please contact the maintainer(s) and let them know the package is no longer updating correctly.

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).
