# scoop settings

Allow managing [scoop](https://scoop.sh).

{% hint style="warning" %}
**scoop** is only available for Windows.
{% endhint %}

## pkgs

`pkgs` allow installing some scoop packages (cf [github](https://github.com/lukesampson/scoop)).

You need to specify the name of the packages to install.

A simple example, in the [vscode-anywhere.sls](https://gigi206.gitbook.io/vscode-anywhere/structure/conf/saltstack/pillar#vscode-anywhere-sls) file to ask to install the [scoop python 3.8.2 package](https://chocolatey.org/packages/python/3.8.2) in the `python3`module:

```yaml
vscode-anywhere:
    python3:
        enabled: True
        scoop:
            pkgs:
                opts:
                    global: {}
                    install: {}
                    update: {}
                    uninstall: {}
                python:
                    enabled: True
                    opts:
                        global: {}
                        install:
                            version: '3.8.2'
                        update: {}
                        uninstall: {}
```

### enabled

`True` to `enable`, `False` to skip (default to `False`).

### opts

`opts` is not mandatory but allows to pass extra args.

Extra args can be arguments described in the [Saltstack scoop states](https://docs.saltstack.com/en/master/ref/states/all/salt.states.chocolatey.html) or can be [global Saltstack arguments](https://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/ref/states/requisites.html).
