Choco sample

CreatePackage.ps1

# Chocolatey must be installed on all nodes which intend to use it
https://chocolatey.org/install#individual

# Make a folder called DhcpDaemon
New-Item DhcpDaemon -ItemType Directory
# Inside that folder, make a folder called Tools
# This will hold your installation files and an install script
New-Item DhcpDaemon\tools -ItemType Directory

# Make an install script
New-Item DhcpDaemon\tools\chocolateyInstall.ps1

# Open this script in your favourite editor
notepad DhcpDaemon\tools\chocolateyInstall.ps1

# The content of the script will look something like this:

$packageParams = @{
    PackageName    = 'DhcpDaemon'
    FileType       = 'exe'
    SoftwareName   = 'DhcpDaemon'
    File           = Join-Path -Path $PSScriptRoot -ChildPath DhcpDaemonInstaller.exe
    SilentArgs     = ''
    ValidExitCodes = 0
}
Install-ChocolateyInstallPackage @packageParams

# Each package needs a nuspec file, an XML file. The nuspec file is for metadata, package name, versions, etc, etc

New-Item DhcpDaemon\dhcpdaemon.nuspec

# Open this XML file in your favourite editor.

notepad DhcpDaemon\dhcpdaemon.nuspec

# The content of the XML file would be similar to this. Remember to fix package names and version numbers.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<package xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/packaging/2015/06/nuspec.xsd">
    <metadata>
        <version>1.0.0.0</version>
        <title>dhcpdaemon</title>
        <authors>You</authors>
        <copyright>YourOrg 2022</copyright>
        <id>dhcpdaemon</id>
        <summary>DhcpDaemon installer</summary>
        <description>Some description for this package</description>
    </metadata>
</package>

# At this point the package can be created

choco pack DhcpDaemon\DhcpDaemon.nuspec

# This step creates a nupkg file with a version number embedded in it.
# It is possible to create chocolatey repositories on file shares, or just install the package from a folder:

choco install dhcpdaemon --source c:\folder\containing\nupkg\file
