Source Command (choco sources)

Chocolatey will allow you to interact with sources.

NOTE: Mostly compatible with older chocolatey client (0.9.8.x and below) with options and switches. When enabling, disabling or removing a source, use -name in front of the option now. In most cases you can still pass options and switches with one dash (-). For more details, see [[how to pass arguments|CommandsReference#how-to-pass-options--switches]] (choco -?).

Usage

choco source [list]|add|remove|disable|enable [<options/switches>]
choco sources [list]|add|remove|disable|enable [<options/switches>]

Examples

choco source
choco source list
choco source add -n=bob -s https://somewhere/out/there/api/v2/
choco source add -n=bob -s "'https://somewhere/out/there/api/v2/'" -u=bob -p=12345
choco source disable -n=bob
choco source enable -n=bob
choco source remove -n=bob

Options and Switches

NOTE: Options and switches apply to all items passed, so if you are running a command like install that allows installing multiple packages, and you use --version=1.0.0, it is going to look for and try to install version 1.0.0 of every package passed. So please split out multiple package calls when wanting to pass specific options.

Includes [[default options/switches|CommandsReference#default-options-and-switches]] (included below for completeness).
