It installs and switches command-line tools from YAML configuration, aiming at the same daily workflow space as asdf-style tool managers but with a registry, lazy install behavior, and Renovate-friendly version declarations. ### Projektgeschichte The official aqua repository was created in August 2021. The repository description calls it a declarative CLI version manager with lazy install, a registry, Renovate support, and seamless command version switching. The documentation centers on `aqua.yaml` and registry-backed package definitions. The config reference documents local and global config discovery, standard and local registries, JSON Schema support, checksum settings, and security toggles for provenance verification. ### Adoptionsgeschichte aqua is distributed through Homebrew, Chocolatey, Scoop, and winget in the input metadata. The official repository metadata shows active development, a four-digit star count, and topics around CLI tooling and version management. The project explicitly documents Renovate integration, YAML language-server schemas, a standard registry, and using aqua together with other version managers such as asdf. That makes its adoption story especially package-manager-native: it is designed for repositories to declare the tools they need and let bots update those declarations. ### Wie es verwendet wird Users add packages such as `helm/helm@v3.7.0` or `golangci/golangci-lint@v1.42.1` to aqua configuration, pin a standard registry ref, and let aqua install or lazily install the requested executables. Configuration discovery is intentionally repository-friendly: aqua checks `$AQUA_CONFIG`, then `.aqua.yaml`, `aqua.yaml`, `aqua/aqua.yaml`, and `.aqua/aqua.yaml` while walking up from the current directory, with `$AQUA_GLOBAL_CONFIG` for global tools. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren aqua is interesting because it treats command-line tools themselves as lockable, reviewable project dependencies. The registry and Renovate conventions put CLI installation into the same maintenance loop as library dependencies, which is exactly the sort of thing package nerds care about. ### Zeitleiste - 2021: The official aqua repository was created. - 2021: The documentation copyright begins and the project published docs under aquaproj.github.io. - 2023: The config reference notes aqua v1.33.0 support for keeping configuration files in `.aqua` directories. - 2024: The config reference documents v2-era provenance and policy controls such as Cosign, SLSA, and GitHub Artifact Attestation toggles. - 2026: The repository remains actively maintained in the 2.x release line. ### Related projects - Related projects and systems include aqua-registry, Renovate, GitHub Actions, YAML Language Server, Cosign, SLSA Provenance, GitHub Artifact Attestations, ghtkn, Keyring, and asdf. ### Quellen - - - - source_facts.package-manager ## Sicherheitshinweise infrastructure mutation or orchestration signal. - **Geiger-Risiko:** orange / mittel - infrastructure mutation or orchestration signal ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
