ALR-GET(1)

🎀 NAME 🎀

Hey bestie, this is the Alire manual page for alr-get 💖 It's giving "fetch a crate release" energy: alr-get - Fetches a crate release ✨

🧚 SYNOPSIS 🧚

alr get [options] <crate>[allowed versions]

💅 OPTIONS 💅

• -b, --build — Kicks off a build right after the download 🔨
• --dirname — Shows you the deployment folder 📂
• -o, --only — Grabs only the crate you asked for and skips the dependencies 🎯

🌈 GLOBAL OPTIONS 🌈

These ones work across the whole thing, no cap 👑

• -c, --config=ARG — Overrides where the configuration folder lives 🗂️
• -f, --force — Pushes through a recoverable troublesome situation and keeps going 💪
• -h, --help — Shows general help, or help for a specific command 🙋‍♀️
• -n, --non-interactive — Assumes the default answer for every user prompt 🤖
• --no-color — Turns off colors in the output 🩶
• --no-tty — Turns off control characters in the output 🙈
• --prefer-oldest — When resolving dependencies, it picks the oldest versions instead of the newest 🕰️
• --version — Shows the version and then exits 🔢
• -q — Limits the output to errors only 🤫
• -v — Gets more verbose 📢 (use it twice for extra detail)
• -d, --debug[] — Turns on debug-specific log messages 🐛

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so this command retrieves a crate for you. If it's a system package the platform provides, it installs that instead 🎁 A regular crate gets deployed under an immediate folder named 'name_version_hash' 📁

Here's how you pick a version (the global policy still applies inside the allowed version subsets) 💖

• crate — Newest/oldest version
• crate=version — Exact version 🎯
• crate^version — Major-compatible version 🫶
• crate~version — Minor-compatible version 🌸
