Usage

In this doc we will refer to installable packages as "parts". You can view all the parts which Autoparts supports by running the following command:

$ parts search

Autoparts will automatically update when a box is started, but if needed you can manually update the repo if you are not seeing the latest updates:

$ parts update

To install a part (or update an existing part), utilize the install command. For example, to install PostgreSQL you will need to run the following command:

$ parts install postgresql

Certain parts such as databases will need to be started in order to be utilized. Some box templates will start a database upon boot, but if not you can start/stop it manually.

$ parts start postgresql
$ parts stop postgresql

For a full list of commands, run parts help.
