There are two related problems that this issue is discussing, both highlighted in the linked issues:
- How do I discover DSC Resources that aren't already on my machine?
- How do I install those resources other than finding and downloading/installing them manually or with separate software depending on my platform, how the software is packaged, etc?
#92 addresses the discoverability problem by proposing a registry of DSC Resources, similar to the PowerShell Gallery.
#47 is specifically discussing a functional-within-DSC mechanism for the installation problem.
This situation is more complicated for DSCv3 than in PSDSC - in PSDSC, you could always just rely on a PowerShell repository for both discovery and install, because there was only one package type independent of platform. For DSCv3, a resource might be available through one or more package management tools and only some subset of available operating systems.
It seems unlikely that we'll write a meta resource that itself handles installing apt, yum, winget, MSI, standalone binary, and OSX packages. More likely, we'll have to do something like I proposed in #92, where resource manifests advertise how to install their associated CLI software (and any resource without the install
property can only be manually installed):
{
"$schema": "https://aka.ms/dsc/schemas/resource_manifest",
"manifestVersion": "1.0",
"type": "TSToy/gotstoy",
"version": "0.1.0",
"install": {
"type": "DSC/Intall.GitHubRelease",
"properties": {
"repo": "TSToy/gotstoy"
"version": "0.1.0"
}
},
}
