Note
This is still under development. It currently does not replace even close to all the scoop commands, and is missing a lot of functionality. There is unlikely to be any breaking changes, so there is likely no harm using it as is.
Super fast replacements and additions to scoop commands written in Rust
scoop bucket add extras
scoop install sfsuYou may set up the hooks to use the scoop commands normally
Add the following to your Powershell profile
Invoke-Expression (&sfsu hook)You can also optionally disable certain hooks via the --disable <COMMAND> flag
Invoke-Expression (&sfsu hook --disable list)It also supports Bash in WSL and MSYS2
Add the following to your .bashrc (or its equivalents, i.e .zshrc) file
source <(sfsu.exe hook --shell bash)Nushell is also supported. Run the following command save it to a file.
sfsu hook --shell nu | save -f path/to/some/file.nuThen source it in your config.nu (situated in path $nu.config-path).
source path/to/the/file.nuThe above disable demonstration also works
Benchmarks 1
Note
These benchmarks may not accurately represent the speeds on your system. While they do provide a relative measurement, your environment and results will be different.
On average, sfsu search is ~400 times faster than regular scoop search and ~5 times faster than scoop-search.
sfsu list is ~35 times faster than scoop list
sfsu and hok are pretty comperable in all benchmarks. sfsu wins some benchmarks and hok wins others.

Hok does not have the Updated at and Updated by fields.
As such, for the sake of fairness, I have split the benchmark in two.
The first benchmark compares sfsu without these fields to Hok,
and the second benchmark compares sfsu with these fields to Scoop.

I have a couple of long term goals.
Firstly, I want to create a Rust library to help interacting with Scoop from code. This library would allow for things like installing packages, running updates, etc. It will likely start by providing a function to get the Scoop install path, but hopefully over time it will grow into a fully fledged library, which is used internally by sfsu to interact with Scoop.
My other long term goal is to create a Scoop replacement for those who want it, in a similar vein as Shovel. This is a fairly large undertaking and will definitely take me a lot of time, so this is a very long term goal, and may never happen. Despite this I never really plan to replace Scoop. It is a great package manager and if anything sfsu would just be a command you can run instead of Scoop, but would run on Scoop installations.
In the meantime I will continue working on this independently of Scoop as a collection of seperate tools that work in conjunction with Scoop.

These benchmarks are done after warmups. You will likely see far greater improvements when run on "cold" systems. Results will also differ depending on search request and the number of results, as well as installed buckets, and a few other factors ↩
