choco-source: Add a new package source.
$ choco source add --name ${name} --source ${url}
try on your machine
The command "choco source add --name ${name} --source ${url}" is used to add a new package source to Chocolatey, a package manager for Windows.
Here's the breakdown of the command:
- "choco source add" is the command to add a new source to Chocolatey.
- "--name ${name}" is an argument that specifies the name of the source being added. "${name}" is a placeholder that needs to be replaced with the actual name you want to give to the source.
- "--source ${url}" is an argument that specifies the URL or local path to the source. Again, "${url}" is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual URL or path where the source is located.
So, for example, if you want to add a source named "MyRepo" with a URL "https://example.com/packages", you would use the command like this:
choco source add --name MyRepo --source https://example.com/packages
