Description Of Changes

This adds the ability for the export command to include pins in the
exported file. They will be exported if --include-arguments is
specified, but can be excluded with --exclude-pins.

Motivation and Context

See #2603

Testing

  1. Run .\choco.exe install iperf2 wget --allow-unofficial
  2. Run .\choco.exe pin add -n iperf2 --allow-unofficial
  3. Run .\choco.exe export --include-arguments --allow-unofficial
  4. Check that the exported packages.config includes <package id="iperf2" pinPackage="true" />
  5. Run .\choco.exe export --include-argument --exclude-pins --allow-unofficial
  6. Check that the export packages.config does not include pinPackage for iperf2

Change Types Made

  • Bug fix (non-breaking change)
  • Feature / Enhancement (non-breaking change)
  • Breaking change (fix or feature that could cause existing functionality to change)

Is there any news on this? It is essential..
An export command that exports something that cannot be used to recreate the exact environment, is not very useful..
One could simply do:

  • ( choco list | select -skip 1 | select -skiplast 1 | % { ($_ -split ' ')[0] } ) -join ' ' >choco.list: to get a space-separated list of packages
  • choco install $(cat choco.list): to reinstall all packages with a single choco call

So choco export is incomplete without install arguments and pins and anything else needed to replicate an environment

This helps ensure that package IDs are handled in a case
insensitive manner.
This allows overriding of remembered package parameters, install
arguments, cache location and execution timeout during upgrade.
So a user can pass in different package parameters or arguments
without having to completely reinstall the package or turn off
remembered arguments.

Switch arguments cannot be checked, because the lack of a switch
normally would mean that they are just relying on the remembered args
to remember it, so there is no way to determine if an override of the
remembered args is appropriate.

This adds a new method, GetPackageConfigFromRememberedArguments which
is similar to SetConfigFromRememberedArguments, but operates using a
different method. First, a OptionSet is set up, so only the config
that is passed in is modified, instead of the config that the global
options parser was set with with. Second, it returns the modified
configuration instead of the original configuration, because it is the
local configuration being modified. Third, it has a more general name
and changes log messages to be more general, so it later can more
easily be reused for uninstall and export.

This change fixes remembered arguments when Chocolatey is used as a
library, like in ChocolateyGUI, where the config that is passed to
the install_run method is not necessarily the same config object that
was used to set up the global argument parser.

The downside of using a new commandline parser is that it opens up the
possibility of drift between the upgrade/global arguments and this
added parser. However, this is not an issue because the format of the
saved arguments is known, and any added arguments there would not work
without being added here as well, which would be picked up during
development.
Instead of exporting via building an xml document manually, this
creates a PackagesConfigFilePackageSetting and serializes that to
create the xml document that is saved. This allows for usage of the
same class as is used to read in packages.config files to export
those files.

The reason the various "Specified" members are added to the
PackagesConfigFilePackageSetting class is so if an element is not set
during export, it will not show up at all in the resulting serialized
packages.config file.
This adds the --include-remembered-arguments option which is used to
export any remembered arguments. It reuses the
GetPackageConfigFromRememberedArguments method in the NugetService to
read and parse the remembered arguments.
This adds the ability for the export command to include pins in the
exported file. They will be exported if --include-arguments is
specified, but can be excluded with --exclude-pins.
