paur - A simple AUR package helper. Written in V.
- Minimal AUR helper logic
- No dependency on external scripting languages
- Fast and clean build process
- Integrates smoothly with
pnm
paur <package-name>
This will:
- Clone the given AUR package using
git - Enter the directory
- Build and install it using
makepkg
gitbase-develpnm(for integration)
Make sure pnm is installed and properly configured.
You can build paur using the V compiler:
v . -o paur
Then move the binary somewhere in your $PATH, for example:
sudo mv paur /usr/local/bin/
paur is written in V because:
- It compiles to native binaries with zero dependencies
- It's simple and fast like C, but safer and more modern
- Easy to maintain and audit (a single-file binary with clear logic)
