Chocolatey Package

Strongly typed Chocolatey package-management commands.

Common options​

The common-option audit uses Chocolatey 2.7.4 help and the official command reference. ChocoOptions supplies the documented default switches, including Debug, Verbose, Yes, Timeout, and proxy settings. Common options follow the command and its package operands, such as choco install example --timeout=60 --yes. Value-taking options use =; ProxyPassword remains secret-masked.

Existing command initializers can continue setting inherited properties. Alias lists now produce one property using the first long name, so previously omitted options such as --yes,--confirm and --timeout,--execution-timeout=VALUE are available. Short aliases remain attached to that property. Root --version and help-only options are not common settings; a command's package Version stays command-specific. Comma-separated settings such as ProxyBypassList remain single string values.

Installation​

dotnet add package ModularPipelines.Chocolatey

Required command-line tool: choco. It must be installed and available on PATH when the pipeline runs.

Context entry points​

Use the discoverable context.Tools surface from a module:

  • context.Tools.Choco

Module example​


public class UseChocoModule : SyncModule<None>
{
    protected override None Execute(
        IModuleContext context,
        CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        var choco = context.Tools.Choco;

        // Call the integration's strongly typed operations here.
        context.Logger.LogInformation("Choco integration is ready");
        return None.Value;
    }
}

The package exposes generated options records for its supported CLI commands.
