depot-rs

A TUI for managing crates, all at one place.

Features

• A dashboard to view all installed crates with their metadata
• Pick a crate to uninstall from the dashboard
• Shows which crates are outdated and update them at will

Installation

[!NOTE] You need to install Rust before you can proceed.

cargo install depot-rs --locked
depot

Usage

To get started, run the binary:

depot

It should bring you to a loading screen. This may take a while if it is the first time running it. After it has finished fetching all the metadata, you should be able to see a menu.

Dashboard

Press c from the menu to open the dashboard. Use vim-keybindings or arrow keys to navigate up and down, and press d to uninstall a crate.

Update a crate

Press u from the menu to see what crates are outdated. Use vim-keybindings or arrow keys to navigate up and down, and press ENTER to update a crate.

Motivation

I tend to forget about a crate I'd installed the other day after trying it out once or twice. If a crate has an update, it often goes unnoticed unless I'm following their release page closely. This makes me want to build a tool that helps me manage the crates I've installed at one place and not forget about them.
