Manifest Name

  • abyss does not use Scoop's manifest naming format; instead, it is inspired by winget-pkgs.
  • It uses a naming format like Publisher.PackageIdentifier, like vscode:
    • In the official bucket, it is named vscode.json.
    • In abyss, it is named Microsoft.VisualStudioCode.json.
  • Such naming has both advantages and disadvantages.
    • Good: it is more standard, strict, and unique.
    • Bad: it looks a bit verbose, not user-friendly for command input.
  • Fortunately, PSCompletions provides completion for scoop, which greatly improves the input experience.
