papa 3.1.0-beta

Features

• Install and update Northstar from the command line
• Search Thunderstore for mods from the command line
• Download a mod and its dependencies with one command
• Easily keep your mods up to date

Usage

papa install fifty.server_utilities #install a mod

papa list #list installed mods

papa update #update any out of date mods

papa remove fifty.server_utilities #uninstall a mod

Installation

I suggest that you initialize Northstar to set everything up automatically

papa ns init

Or create a file at .config/papa/config.toml and set install_dir to whatever directory you want

Ubuntu/Debian(& derivatives)

Download the .deb file from the latest release and install it using whatever you usually use to install packages:

sudo apt install ./papa_3.0.0.deb

Arch Linux

Community maintained papa and papa-bin packages are available on the AUR:

paru -S papa

Windows

Download and run the .msi installer from the latest release.

Using prebuilt binaries

Download the appropriate binary for your system (make sure you get the .exe for Windows) and place it somewhere in your PATH. You should then be able to call the papa command from your favorite command line.

Building from source

If you have cargo installed on your system, you should be able to install papa directly from crates.io

 cargo install papa

or from the git repo

 cargo install --git https://github.com/AnActualEmerald/papa

If you want to build from source but don't have cargo installed, you should check out rustup.rs

Dependencies

• pkgconfig
• openssl

Caveats

• The default install directory is relative to the current working directory, meaning that running papa install in ~/ will install mods into ~/mods
