1.如何求助？

起手式，核心的一点是寻求帮助。choco与正常的linux命令查询大相径庭。

比如scoop的查询是这样的：

PS C:UsersgaoweiVideosBibleProject> scoop help update
Usage: scoop update  [options]

'scoop update' updates Scoop to the latest version.
'scoop update ' installs a new version of that app, if there is one.

You can use '*' in place of  to update all apps.

Options:
  -f, --force               Force update even when there isn't a newer version
  -g, --global              Update a globally installed app
  -i, --independent         Don't install dependencies automatically
  -k, --no-cache            Don't use the download cache
  -s, --skip                Skip hash validation (use with caution!)
  -q, --quiet               Hide extraneous messages

但是choco却将help放置在了后面，而且还是single-dash，既然如此也便只能“客随主便”了。

PS C:UsersgaoweiVideosBibleProject> choco list -help
Chocolatey v0.10.15
List/Search Command

Chocolatey will perform a search for a package local or remote. Some
 may prefer to use `clist` as a shortcut for `choco list`.
 

2.安装软件

安装案例如下：

    choco install sysinternals
    choco install notepadplusplus googlechrome atom 7zip
    choco install notepadplusplus --force --force-dependencies
    choco install notepadplusplus googlechrome atom 7zip -dvfy
    choco install git -y --params="'/GitAndUnixToolsOnPath /NoAutoCrlf'"
    choco install git -y --params="'/GitAndUnixToolsOnPath /NoAutoCrlf'" --install-arguments="'/DIR=C:git'"
    # Params are package parameters, passed to the package
    # Install args are installer arguments, appended to the silentArgs
    #  in the package for the installer itself
    choco install nodejs.install --version 0.10.35
    choco install git -s "'https://somewhere/out/there'"
    choco install git -s "'https://somewhere/protected'" -u user -p pass

3.查阅已安装的软件

查阅已安装的软件，不能直接输入命令：

PS C:UsersgaoweiVideosBibleProject> choco list
Chocolatey v0.10.15

系统会始终处于pending的状态。解决方案必须加上options：

choco list --local-only
choco list -li
choco list -lai
choco list --page=0 --page-size=25
choco search git
choco search git --source="'https://somewhere/out/there'"
choco search bob -s "'https://somewhere/protected'" -u user -p pass

4.列出所有过期的软件

升级apps前，先检查是否已经过期。

PS C:Usersgaoweiscoopappsscoopcurrent> choco outdated
Chocolatey v0.10.15
Outdated Packages
 Output is package name | current version | available version | pinned?

adobereader|2020.012.20043|2020.012.20048|false
calibre|4.23.0|5.3.0|false
dotnetcore3-desktop-runtime|3.1.8|3.1.9|false
KB2533623|1.0.4|2.0.0|false
microsoft-edge|84.0.522.63|86.0.622.56|false
powertoys|0.21.1|0.25.0|false
vcredist140|14.26.28720.3|14.27.29112|false
visualstudio2017buildtools|15.9.26.0|15.9.28.0|false

5.升级软件

升级全部的安装程序：

PS C:UsersgaoweiVideosBibleProject> sudo choco upgrade all -y
Chocolatey v0.10.15
Upgrading the following packages:
all
By upgrading you accept licenses for the packages.
7zip v19.0 is the latest version available based on your source(s).

升级部分程序的方法：

    choco upgrade chocolatey
    choco upgrade notepadplusplus googlechrome atom 7zip
    choco upgrade notepadplusplus googlechrome atom 7zip -dvfy
    choco upgrade git -y --params="'/GitAndUnixToolsOnPath /NoAutoCrlf'"
    choco upgrade git -y --params="'/GitAndUnixToolsOnPath /NoAutoCrlf'" --install-args="'/DIR=C:git'"
    # Params are package parameters, passed to the package
    # Install args are installer arguments, appended to the silentArgs
    #  in the package for the installer itself
    choco upgrade nodejs.install --version 0.10.35
    choco upgrade git -s "'https://somewhere/out/there'"
    choco upgrade git -s "'https://somewhere/protected'" -u user -p pass
    choco upgrade all
    choco upgrade all --except="'skype,conemu'"

6.卸载软件

可以卸载软件的指定版本:

    choco uninstall git
    choco uninstall notepadplusplus googlechrome atom 7zip
    choco uninstall notepadplusplus googlechrome atom 7zip -dv
    choco uninstall ruby --version 1.8.7.37402
    choco uninstall nodejs.install --all-versions

比如卸载adobe-reader：

PS C:UsersgaoweiVideosBibleProject> sudo choco uninstall adobereader
Chocolatey v0.10.15
Uninstalling the following packages:
adobereader

adobereader v2020.012.20048
The package adobereader wants to run 'chocolateyuninstall.ps1'.
Note: If you don't run this script, the installation will fail.
Note: To confirm automatically next time, use '-y' or consider:
choco feature enable -n allowGlobalConfirmation
Do you want to run the script?([Y]es/[A]ll - yes to all/[N]o/[P]rint): Y

 Running auto uninstaller...
 Auto uninstaller has successfully uninstalled adobereader or detected previous uninstall.
 adobereader has been successfully uninstalled.

7.查看和搜索按转包

查阅安装包信息：

PS C:UsersgaoweiVideosBibleProject> choco info powershell
Chocolatey v0.10.15
PowerShell 5.1.14409.20180811 [Approved]
 Title: Windows Management Framework and PowerShell | Published: 2018-08-11
 Package approved as a trusted package on Jul 13 2020 04:02:21.
 Package testing status: Passing on Aug 11 2018 20:14:14.
 Number of Downloads: 4461899 | Downloads for this version: 2038939
 Package url
 Chocolatey Package Source: n/a

搜索安装包wps：

PS C:UsersgaoweiVideosBibleProject> choco info wps-office-free
Chocolatey v0.10.15
wps-office-free 11.2.0.9718 [Approved] Downloads cached for licensed users
 Title: WPS Office Free | Published: 2020-10-20
 Package approved as a trusted package on Oct 21 2020 07:04:37.

8.配置Choco

    choco config
    choco config list
    choco config get cacheLocation
    choco config get --name cacheLocation
    choco config set cacheLocation c:	empchoco
    choco config set --name cacheLocation --value c:	empchoco
    choco config unset proxy
    choco config unset --name proxy

比如list选项：

PS C:UsersgaoweiVideosBibleProject> choco config list
Chocolatey v0.10.15
Settings
cacheLocation =  | Cache location if not TEMP folder. Replaces `$env:TEMP` value for choco.exe process. It is highly recommended this be set to make Chocolatey more deterministic in cleanup.
containsLegacyPackageInstalls = true | Install has packages installed prior to 0.9.9 series.
commandExecutionTimeoutSeconds = 2700 | Default timeout for command execution. '0' for infinite (starting in 0.10.4).
proxy =  | Explicit proxy location. Available in 0.9.9.9+.
proxyUser =  | Optional proxy user. Available in 0.9.9.9+.
proxyPassword =  | Optional proxy password. Encrypted. Available in 0.9.9.9+.
webRequestTimeoutSeconds = 30 | Default timeout for web requests. Available in 0.9.10+.
proxyBypassList =  | Optional proxy bypass list. Comma separated. Available in 0.10.4+.
proxyBypassOnLocal = true | Bypass proxy for local connections. Available in 0.10.4+.
upgradeAllExceptions =  | A comma-separated list of package names that should not be upgraded when running `choco upgrade all'. Defaults to empty. Available in 0.10.14+.

以上为choco的8项高频操作。

日常还是主要用scoop，scoop找不到再尝试choco，因为scoop更快。
