yay

Yet another Yogurt - An AUR Helper written in Go

Packages
- Compile from source
- Binary version

There's a point in everyone's life when you feel the need to write an AUR helper because there are only about 20 of them. So say hi to 20+1.

Yay was created with a few objectives in mind and based on the design of yaourt and apacman:

• Have almost no dependencies.
• Provide an interface for pacman.
• Have yaourt like search.
• Know when git packages are due for an upgrade (missing this one for now).

Custom Operations

• yay <Search Term> presents package selection menu
• yay -Qstats delivers system statistics
• yay -Cd cleans unneeded dependencies
