A dead simple module wrapping calls to the Chocolatey package manager (http://chocolatey.org)
New in version 2014.1.0.
salt.modules.chocolatey.
bootstrap
(force=False)¶Download and install the latest version of the Chocolatey package manager via the official bootstrap.
Chocolatey requires Windows PowerShell and the .NET v4.0 runtime. Depending on the host's version of Windows, chocolatey.bootstrap will attempt to ensure these prerequisites are met by downloading and executing the appropriate installers from Microsoft.
Note that if PowerShell is installed, you may have to restart the host machine for Chocolatey to work.
CLI Example:
salt '*' chocolatey.bootstrap
salt '*' chocolatey.bootstrap force=True
salt.modules.chocolatey.
