Usage

The uniget CLI comes with help included. The following scenarios are meant as quickstart tutorials.

You want to investigate which tools are available

List which tools are available in uniget:

uniget list

You want to install a specific tool

It is possible to install individual tools:

uniget install gojq
uniget install kubectl helm

You want to search for tools

You can search for the specified term in names, tags and dependencies:

uniget search jq

If you are running this interactively, a small text-based UI offers to install selected tools from the search results. This feature was removed in 0.12.0.

You want to update installed tools

Updated tools which are already installed:

uniget update
uniget upgrade

You want to see what will happen

Show which tools will be processed and updated:

uniget install containerd --dry-run
uniget upgrade --dry-run

Up to and including v0.25.x, --dry-run was --plan.

Reinstall tool(s)

By adding the --reinstall parameter, the selected tools can be reinstalled regardless if they are outdated:

uniget install gojq --reinstall
