# AllPac - Unified Package Manager for Arch Linux
## Overview
AllPac is a command-line utility designed to simplify package management on Arch Linux by combining various package managers into one cohesive tool. With AllPac, users can seamlessly interact with packages from the Snap Store, Flatpak, Pacman, and the Arch User Repository (AUR) using a single interface. This eliminates the need to juggle multiple package managers and provides a unified solution for installing, updating, uninstalling, and searching for packages.
## Installation
To install AllPac on your Arch Linux system, simply run the following command to run the install script ([Source](https://git.pixelridgesoftworks.com/PixelRidge-Softworks/Installers/src/branch/main/allpac)):
(if you don't want to use the install script, a pre-built binary can be found [here](https://git.pixelridgesoftworks.com/PixelRidge-Softworks/AllPac/releases))
```bash
curl -s https://git.pixelridgesoftworks.com/PixelRidge-Softworks/Installers/raw/branch/main/allpac/install.sh | bash
```
## Features
### 1. Unified Package Management
AllPac consolidates package management tasks from different sources, allowing users to handle Snap packages, Flatpaks, Pacman packages, and AUR packages all in one place.
### 2. Installer
Easily install packages from various sources with a straightforward installation command. AllPac intelligently recognizes the package type and fetches it from the appropriate repository.
```bash
allpac install
```
### 3. Updater
Keep all your installed packages up-to-date with a single command. AllPac checks for updates across different repositories and ensures your system is current.
```bash
allpac update
```
### 4. Uninstaller
Remove packages cleanly and efficiently, regardless of their origin. AllPac ensures a consistent uninstallation process for Snap, Flatpak, Pacman, and AUR packages.
```bash
allpac uninstall
```
### 5. Package Search
Quickly find packages across Snap Store, Flatpak, Pacman, and AUR using the integrated search feature.
```bash
allpac search
```
## Usage
Once installed, you can use AllPac with the following commands:
- Install a package:
```bash
allpac install <package_name>
```
- Update all installed packages:
### WARNING: This will attempt to install all packages managed by AllPac across all sources! Be careful with this command!
```bash
allpac update everything
```
- Update a specific installed package or packages:
```bash
allpac update {package_name}
```
or
```bash
allpac update {packagename1} {packagename2} {packagename3}
```
or
```bash
allpac update {aur/flats/snaps/arch}
```
- Uninstall a package:
```bash
allpac uninstall <package_name>
```
- Search for packages:
```bash
allpac search <package_name>
```
## Logs and Cache
After you run things the first time (or you run the install script), all the logs, the package list, the binary, and the updater script will be contained here:
```bash
/home/{your_user}/.allpac/
```
## Uninstalling AllPac
To uninstall AllPac is quite simple. You just remove the `.allpac` directory. As the directory contains all the files associated with AllPac, removing the directory will completely remove AllPac.
### NOTE: UNINSTALLING AllPac WILL *NOT* UNINSTALL PACKAGES INSTALLED *BY* AllPac!
