User defined config? (And merge efforts?)

[Zykino]

I recently started doing a project and even more recently heard about topgrade.

Turns out both projects have a similar objective: update user’s system. The approach is quite different because I wanted the users to be able to configure any program useful to them. For example here is my setup to update helix installed with git & cargo install --path.

My naming and format are still evolving… but I think what I call "packages" is topgrade’s executors. Ask me if you want clarifications on any-thing.

What I have come up with is having any number of command as fetch, then compile commands to execute in preparation. The install one is the only required and is unique. And then, another list of commands for post-installation actions.
I took inspiration on apt’s steps, and usual git installations setups too.

Maybe having 2 districts projects in the same language to achieve the same objective is too much. Do you think it would be possible to integrate some kind of config like my yamls?

This would definitely be something to think about, there are definitely a lot of things we could merge together. I especially like the system of user configured commands you did, which is better then our system.
