I’ve just been using https://github.com/topgrade-rs/topgrade
Love this. One of those extremely satisfying terminal commands to pointlessly run over and over, so much so that I added it to my crontab so I don’t do that 😭
Your
echo
statements should be put into a function so you don’t have\n
littered throughout your script.Your url var could be improved. Why have it? If you really want it, why not put type=info in the var?
Switch to
printf
.printf "%s\n" "text goes here"
Nice, I have a similar one. Things I also do there:
flatpak update
tldr -u
to update tldr pages- Check if reboot needed after kernel update, and display a notification about it
pacman-contrib has pacdiff and paccache I like to run at the end of my update scripts
