# UniGetUI - Copilot Instructions
|
|
|
|
## Project Overview
|
|
|
|
UniGetUI is an Avalonia desktop app (C#/.NET 10) providing a GUI for CLI package managers (WinGet, Scoop, Chocolatey, Pip, Npm, .NET Tool, PowerShell Gallery, Cargo, Vcpkg).
|
|
|
|
Solution entry points:
|
|
- `src/UniGetUI.Windows.slnx` - official Windows solution; builds the Avalonia app and Windows-specific package-manager integrations
|
|
- `src/UniGetUI.Avalonia.slnx` - cross-platform Avalonia solution
|
|
|
|
## Architecture
|
|
|
|
The codebase follows a **layered, modular structure** with ~40 projects:
|
|
|
|
- **`UniGetUI.Avalonia/`** - Avalonia entry point, AXAML pages, controls, and app shell (`Program.cs`, `Views/MainWindow.axaml`)
|
|
- **`SharedAssets/`** - shared app icons, symbols, splash images, and utility scripts used by packaging
|
|
- **`UniGetUI.Core.*`** - Shared infrastructure: `Logger`, `Settings`, `Tools` (includes `CoreTools.Translate()`), `IconEngine`, `LanguageEngine`
|
|
- **`UniGetUI.PackageEngine.Interfaces`** - Contracts: `IPackageManager`, `IPackage`, `IManagerSource`, `IPackageDetails`
|
|
- **`UniGetUI.PackageEngine.PackageManagerClasses`** - Base implementations: `PackageManager` (abstract), `Package`, helpers (`BasePkgDetailsHelper`, `BasePkgOperationHelper`, `BaseSourceHelper`)
|
|
- **`UniGetUI.PackageEngine.Managers.*`** - Concrete manager implementations (one project per manager: `WinGet`, `Scoop`, `Chocolatey`, `Pip`, `npm`, etc.)
|
|
- **`UniGetUI.PackageEngine.Operations`** - Install/update/uninstall operation orchestration
|
|
- **`UniGetUI.Interface.*`** - Enums, telemetry, background API
|
|
|
|
## Adding a New Package Manager
|
|
|
|
Each manager extends `PackageManager` and must override three abstract methods:
|
|
|
|
```csharp
|
|
protected override IReadOnlyList<Package> FindPackages_UnSafe(string query);
|
|
protected override IReadOnlyList<Package> GetAvailableUpdates_UnSafe();
|
|
protected override IReadOnlyList<Package> GetInstalledPackages_UnSafe();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each manager also provides three helper classes (in a `Helpers/` subfolder):
|
|
- `*PkgDetailsHelper` extends `BasePkgDetailsHelper` - overrides `GetDetails_UnSafe`, `GetInstallableVersions_UnSafe`, `GetIcon_UnSafe`, etc.
|
|
- `*PkgOperationHelper` extends `BasePkgOperationHelper` - overrides `_getOperationParameters`, `_getOperationResult`
|
|
- `*SourceHelper` extends `BaseSourceHelper` - overrides `GetSources_UnSafe`, `GetAddSourceParameters`, etc.
|
|
|
|
The constructor sets `Capabilities`, `Properties`, and wires the helpers. See `src/UniGetUI.PackageEngine.Managers.Scoop/Scoop.cs` as a clean reference implementation.
|
|
|
|
## Build & Test
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
# Restore & test (from src/)
|
|
dotnet restore UniGetUI.Windows.slnx
|
|
dotnet test UniGetUI.Windows.slnx --verbosity q --nologo /p:Platform=x64
|
|
|
|
# Publish release build
|
|
dotnet publish src/UniGetUI.Avalonia/UniGetUI.Avalonia.csproj /p:Configuration=Release /p:Platform=x64 -p:RuntimeIdentifier=win-x64
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Target framework: `net10.0-windows10.0.26100.0` (min `10.0.19041`)
|
|
- Build generates secrets via `src/UniGetUI.Avalonia/Infrastructure/generate-secrets.ps1` and integrity tree via `scripts/generate-integrity-tree.ps1`
|
|
- Self-contained, publish-trimmed (partial), Windows App SDK self-contained
|
|
- Tests use **xUnit** (`[Fact]`, `Assert.*`)
|
|
|
|
## Avalonia DevTools (Developer-Only)
|
|
|
|
Use these rules when changing Avalonia diagnostics/devtools behavior:
|
|
|
|
- Build-time switch is `EnableAvaloniaDiagnostics` in `src/Directory.Build.props`.
|
|
- Default policy: enabled in `Debug`, disabled in `Release`.
|
|
- `src/UniGetUI.Avalonia/UniGetUI.Avalonia.csproj` must condition `AvaloniaUI.DiagnosticsSupport` on `$(EnableAvaloniaDiagnostics)`.
|
|
- Compile-time diagnostics code in `src/UniGetUI.Avalonia/Program.cs` must be gated by `#if AVALONIA_DIAGNOSTICS_ENABLED` (not `#if DEBUG`).
|
|
- Runtime controls are developer-only and intentionally not listed in `docs/CLI.md`.
|
|
- Runtime precedence in `Program.cs`: CLI flags > `UNIGETUI_AVALONIA_DEVTOOLS` environment variable > `Auto` default.
|
|
- Accepted runtime env/CLI values for mode parsing: `auto`, `enabled`, `disabled`, `on`, `off`, `true`, `false`, `1`, `0`.
|
|
- `Auto` mode must remain WSL-safe (DevTools disabled by default on WSL).
|
|
- If diagnostics were excluded at build time, runtime toggle requests should log a no-op warning.
|
|
|
|
## Key Patterns & Conventions
|
|
|
|
### Settings
|
|
File-based settings via `Settings.Get(Settings.K.*)` / `Settings.Set(Settings.K.*, value)` and `Settings.GetValue(Settings.K.*)` / `Settings.SetValue(Settings.K.*, value)`. Setting keys are defined in the `Settings.K` enum in `SettingsEngine_Names.cs`. Boolean settings are stored as file existence; string settings as file content.
|
|
|
|
### Logging
|
|
Use `Logger.Info()`, `Logger.Warn()`, `Logger.Error()`, `Logger.Debug()`, `Logger.ImportantInfo()` from `UniGetUI.Core.Logging`. Accepts both `string` and `Exception` parameters.
|
|
|
|
### Localization
|
|
Use `CoreTools.Translate("text")` for all user-facing strings. Parameterized: `CoreTools.Translate("{0} packages found", count)`. In XAML, use the `TranslatedTextBlock` control. Translation assets live under `src/Languages/`; do not assume Tolgee-based automation exists in this repository.
|
|
|
|
### Naming
|
|
- Types, methods, properties: **PascalCase**
|
|
- Private fields: `__doubleUnderscore` or `_singleUnderscore` prefix
|
|
- Internal unsafe methods: suffix `_UnSafe` (e.g., `FindPackages_UnSafe`)
|
|
- Nullable enabled globally; `LangVersion` is `latest`
|
|
- Code style enforced in build (`EnforceCodeStyleInBuild=true`)
|
|
|
|
### Manager conventions
|
|
- `FALSE_PACKAGE_NAMES`, `FALSE_PACKAGE_IDS`, `FALSE_PACKAGE_VERSIONS` static arrays filter CLI parsing noise
|
|
- Manager initialization flows through `Initialize()` -> `_loadManagerExecutableFile()` -> `_loadManagerVersion()` -> `_performExtraLoadingSteps()`
|
|
- Operations that may fail return `OperationVeredict` (note: intentional misspelling used throughout codebase)
|
