caur
A simple command line utility for managing AUR packages written in C hence the name
Of course, Arch Linux needs another AUR helper, right? No, of course not. But that's not why I'm building mine. I'm building mine because I suck at programming and want to learn. If you use it, great. If not, also great. I'll probably keep using yay.
It currently has a Makefile, but I stole it. Dunno if it'll be needed yet. Ignore it for now.
Depends:
curl

Version 0.1.1 - refactored code for modularity, updated Makefile, compiles with make now. No longer just a main.c file.
Version 0.1 - compiles with gcc -o caur src/main.c -lcurl[outdated], currently will run sudo pacman -Syu just running, ./caur. Currently will only download the archive of the package when you specify a package name.
git clone https://codeberg.org/ampersandcastles/caur.git
cd caur
gcc -o caur src/main.c -lcurl
./caur
Roadmap:
- [] Implement help/man page.
- [] Implement solo features (download, build, install) as their own switch
- [] Implement package installation.
- [] Implement package removal.
- [] Search for packages in both standard Arch repos and the AUR.
- [] Add cleanup options for build dependencies.
- [] Include a feature to clear the package cache.
- [] List installed packages by name and count.
- Refactor code to be modular, with each function in its own file.
