winget package

We should add it to https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli

Hello @merces,
I have submitted a pull request to add the winget manifest for mentebinaria.dz6 version 0.4.1. It is currently under review here:

Hi @param-jasani,

May I ask you how does the WinGet package get updated? It's still in v0.4.1. Should we do it manually or there's a better way?

Thanks.

Hello @merces,
You can use the wingetcreate.exe update to update existing manifests, you can refer to the following docs - winget-create update usage.

I am looking into a way to configure github actions to completely automate the process.

Do you want me to take this issue?

[merces]

Thanks for explaining. And yes I'd appreciate if you can work on this too. :)

EDIT: I've reopened the issue, so we can track it. Thanks a lot for your contributions!

Hi @merces,
I have updated the manifests and raised a PR.

I also made a Git Action workflow for CI, so that next time you publish a new release it automatically raises a PR on winget-pkgs with new manifests - #38

Just make sure you generate a PAT token and store it in current repo's GitHub secrets with the name field as WINGET_PAT, you can refer to the following docs -

1. https://github.com/microsoft/winget-create/blob/main/doc/token.md
2. https://docs.github.com/en/actions/how-tos/write-workflows/choose-what-workflows-do/use-secrets
3. https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/managing-your-personal-access-tokens
4. https://github.com/settings/tokens
