hledger on WinGet

[zhzy0077]

It would be great if we can install hledger through WinGet https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli

As of version WinGet 1.4(will be out soon), it supports zip-compressed portable exes, just like hledger: microsoft/winget-cli#140

I sent a PR here to add it to WinGet: microsoft/winget-pkgs#89472. Just send an issue here to check your opinion on this(this PR won't be checked in until 1.4 is out)

Thanks! 👍🏻

[zhzy0077]

PR completed. Thanks for making the amazing app!

[simonmichael]

Wonderful! Thanks for pushing that through. What new package page(s) and install command(s) might be useful to know about on the Install page ?

[zhzy0077]

this should be:

winget install hledger

or

winget install --id simonmichael.hledger

While I just discovered that unfortunately the version is out-dated on day one. May I know how do we update other software sources? Are those all updated manually?

[simonmichael]

For the most part. Kind and hard-working packagers watch for my release announcements (or know the quarterly release schedule) and then there is a period of days or weeks while the various install methods up date and I gradually turn their badges green on the Install page.

Sounds good. Let me do the same(testing a script that only happens once a few months looks hard to me). I will have a PR tomorrow to update winget package.
