DeclArch

This is a work-in-progress tool for declaratively managing an Arch Linux system.

Currently, this repository contains a parser and support for installing packages, but not users, default applications, or application configurations.

To try out the parser, ensure the Go programming language is installed, clone this repository, and run:

go build .
./declarch apply -c test.conf

You can find the test code in cmds/apply.go and the test data in test.conf and testb.conf (imported by test.conf).

If you don't want to run it yourself, the test's output would be:

2
[2]

2
[2]

3
[3]

3, green, blue
[3, green, blue red, green, blue]

2, green, blue
[2, green, blue]

3, 26, Warsaw
[3, 26, Warsaw Andrew, 21, Berlin Koichi, 18, Morioh]

There is also an example DeclArch configuration in default_declarch.conf.
