get-waterfox's Introduction

get-waterfox

Installs Waterfox on every Linux machine, as simple as possible! This application is intended for network admins. But can also be used for private use without problems.

Install this tool

If you wish to install my tool (not needed, it works perfectly without beeing installed), just run:
$ sudo ./get-waterfox-install

How to use it

First thing you have to do is to run the init:
$ sudo get-waterfox init
This will create the folders /usr/share/waterfox & /usr/share/waterfox-data, you only have to execute it once.

Then you can download Waterfox from the official source:
$ get-waterfox download
With testrun you can check whether the new version works (optional)
$ get-waterfox testrun
After that, we are ready to install it:
$ sudo get-waterfox install

Update Waterfox

If you wish to update your installed Waterfox, just run:
$ sudo get-waterfox update

If you only wish to check if there is an update for waterfox:
$ sudo get-waterfox checkupdate

Target Waterfox

You can choose if you want to use Waterfox Classic or G4
$ get-waterfox target classic
or
$ get-waterfox target G4

Cleanup your cache

If you wish to remove the cache copy of the Waterfox tarball in /usr/share/waterfox-data, just run:
$ sudo get-waterfox cleanup

Remove Waterfox

If you wish to remove Waterfox, just run:
$ sudo get-waterfox remove
This will remove /usr/share/waterfox & /usr/share/waterfox-data too. If you want to install Waterfox again, you need to reexecute init first.

If you wish to remove this tool, just run:
$ sudo ./get-waterfox-remove
