bob

bob is a Binary Only package manager that is for managing my publicly published softwares. Sample repository can be found on here, only works on musl-libc system.

It is recommended to have XDG_DATA_HOME defined to store the database for bob, otherwise database file would be created at ~/.cache

Customizing

You may use your own Github repository for supplying the binaries, or other platforms but requiring you to modify the source to use other URL to download.

All these customizations can be done in bob.h
