Description

PowerShellGet is a module designed for managing PowerShell artifacts, enabling users to discover, install, update, and publish various items such as modules, DSC resources, role capabilities, and scripts. The cmdlet Find-Command is utilized to search for PowerShell commands, including cmdlets, aliases, functions, and workflows, by examining modules within registered repositories. When Find-Command locates a command, it returns a PSGetCommandInfo object, which can subsequently be piped into the Install-Module cmdlet for module installation. By using the Tag and RequiredVersion parameters, users can effectively identify DSC resources; Tag will provide the current version for all resources that possess the specified tag within the repository, while RequiredVersion requires the ModuleName parameter, making the Name parameter optional. These Name and ModuleName parameters serve to refine the output further. Additionally, employing the AllVersions parameter allows users to see all available versions of a DSC resource, enhancing the overall management of PowerShell artifacts. This structure empowers users to efficiently handle PowerShell resources and ensures they are utilizing the most relevant versions for their needs.

Description

Synaptic is a user-friendly graphical interface for managing packages through the apt system, offering functionalities similar to the apt-get command-line tool but with a more accessible Gtk+ front-end. Users can easily install, uninstall, upgrade, or downgrade both individual and multiple software packages, as well as perform comprehensive system upgrades. The program allows for the management of package repositories through the sources.list file and facilitates searching for packages based on various criteria, including name and description. Additionally, it provides the capability to filter and select packages by their status, section, or customized parameters, while sorting can be done according to name, status, size, or version. Users can explore available online documentation for specific packages and access the latest changelog versions. The tool also includes functionalities to lock packages to their current versions, enforce the installation of particular package versions, and utilize undo/redo features for selection changes. Furthermore, a built-in terminal emulator enhances the package management experience, and for users on Debian/Ubuntu systems, it allows configuration through the debconf system and supports fast searching via Xapian, thanks to contributions from Enrico Zini. Overall, Synaptic is an essential tool for users who prefer a graphical approach to package management while still retaining the powerful capabilities of apt.
