Komac is an advanced CLI designed to create manifests for
the [WinGet Community Repository](https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs).
Komac is both blazingly fast 🔥 and incredibly low on memory, using just ~3.5MB of memory on my machine.
## Installation
Komac is cross-platform and binaries are built for Windows, Linux, and macOS.
### All platforms
If you have cargo installed, you can compile Rust for any platform
```bash
cargo install --locked komac
```
Komac also supports [cargo-binstall](https://github.com/cargo-bins/cargo-binstall):
```bash
cargo binstall komac
```
#### Nightly
Nightly releases that are built on every commit are
available [here](https://github.com/russellbanks/Komac/releases/tag/nightly). These are useful for debugging or if you
want the latest features and fixes.
### Windows
Both portable EXEs and installers are available from the [releases](https://github.com/russellbanks/Komac/releases).
#### WinGet
```bash
winget install komac
```
#### Scoop
```bash
scoop install komac
```
### Linux
Portable binaries are available from the [releases](https://github.com/russellbanks/Komac/releases). Debian (`.deb`) and
Red Hat (`.rpm`) installers are also available.
### macOS
Portable binaries for macOS are available from the [releases](https://github.com/russellbanks/Komac/releases).
#### Homebrew
```bash
brew install russellbanks/tap/komac
```
## GitHub Token
Komac is currently only able to use a classic token. Whilst Komac can fully create manifests and commit with a
fine-grained token, it fails to create a pull request to winget-pkgs. This may change as fine-grained tokens improve.
See https://github.com/russellbanks/Komac/issues/310.
### Classic
A classic token with the `public_repo` scope.

## Komac vs other tools 🏆
While other manifest creation tools have made a solid foundation for the manifests in winget-pkgs, they development pace
is notably slow and lacks the advanced detection capabilities that come with Komac.

[^1]: Telemetry is enabled by default in WingetCreate. Use `wingetcreate settings` to manually disable telemetry.
[^2]: There is much more accurate detection for Inno, Nullsoft, and Burn installers since Komac v2.
[^3]: The logic for this was contributed by me :)
Check [issues](https://github.com/Trenly/winget-pkgs/issues?q=is:issue+author:russellbanks) that I've opened to request
this feature for YamlCreate.
## Usage with GitHub Actions: [WinGet Releaser](https://github.com/vedantmgoyal9/winget-releaser) 🌟
WinGet Releaser is a GitHub Action that invokes Komac, passing in your release's URLs. This completely automates
publishing to WinGet.
### Example 📝
```yaml
name: Publish to WinGet
on:
release:
types: [ released ]
jobs:
publish:
runs-on: windows-latest
steps:
- uses: vedantmgoyal9/winget-releaser@main
with:
identifier: Package.Identifier
token: ${{ secrets.WINGET_TOKEN }}
# installers-regex: '\.exe$' # Only .exe files
```
