Windows 10 PackageManagement

Windows 10 comes with nice feature - OneGet - Manager of Package managers. It simplifies way of installing software on a PC and what is more important - it allows to make it scriptable. I'm big fan of Chocolatey so I was glad to learn that Microsoft took care of integrating it with OneGet. Basic info can be found in Scott Hanselman blog post Apt-Get for Windows - OneGet and Chocolatey on Windows 10 and on Microsoft TechNet blog post Introducing PackageManagement in Windows 10.

WARNING
Chocolatey provider is broken and at the moment it only downloads packages to C:\Chocolatey\lib folder, but doesn't install them properly
As a workaround you can use following script (run it elevated powershell console)

To get started first configure Chocolatey as a package provider

Get-PackageProvider -Name Chocolatey
Set-PackageSource -Name Chocolatey -Trusted

Example

PS C:\Users\Mateusz> Get-PackageProvider -Name Chocolatey

The provider 'chocolatey v2.8.5.130' is not installed.
chocolatey may be manually downloaded from https://az818661.vo.msecnd.net/providers/ChocolateyPrototype-2.8.5.130.exe and installed.
Would you like PackageManagement to automatically download and install 'chocolatey' now?

Check that Chocolatey is installed with command

Get-PackageProvider

Example

PS C:\Users\Mateusz> Get-PackageProvider

As a test install git with command

Find-Package git
Install-Package git

Note:
You may be prompted to install NuGet package provider

Example

PS C:\Users\Mateusz> Find-Package git

The provider 'nuget v2.8.5.202' is not installed.
nuget may be manually downloaded from https://az818661.vo.msecnd.net/providers/Microsoft.PackageManagement.NuGetProvider-2.8.5.202.dll and installed.
Would you like PackageManagement to automatically download and install 'nuget' now?
