# pakka A cross platform meta package manager with auto snapshotting file system based transactions ## Overview The goal of this project is to improve the package manager user experience, and introduce a new type of audience to using package managers. We are building a layer of abstraction above the system package manager, and making it such that you only need to learn a single package manager to use them all, although with a reduced feature set where applicable, such as with nix. This project is especially targeted towards those who are stuck on a windows based fleet, but need a streamlined package manager with streamlined critical cve update notifications for installed software with opt out invasive notifications that force the end user to update. ## Features - CLI client - install and uninstall packages ## Quick start guide ### Install the CLI client ```sh cargo install --locked pakka pakka --help ``` For further install instructions read the [Getting started page](https://github.com/kruserr/pakka/tree/master/docs/pages/getting-started.md) ## Documentation Visit the [Documentation](https://github.com/kruserr/pakka/tree/master/docs/README.md) ## Roadmap - [x] log structured event sourcing database to track installed packages over time - [x] export and import database to install the same packages on another machine - [ ] update repos - [ ] upgrade packages - [ ] search packages - [ ] list installed packages - [ ] fully cross platform - [ ] if snapshotting filesystem is available it will automatically create a snapshot pre and post package management - [ ] package name mapper - [ ] iced gui - [ ] scan installed packages for cves - [ ] option to limit strictly to open source software - [ ] option to limit to white listed packages
