Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository.

If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:
choco upgrade saltminion -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'2017.7.1'"
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE
Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
Exit 0
}

This package was approved as a trusted package on 15 Aug 2017.
This package installs a salt minion on your system as a windows service. The Salt minion receives commands from the central Salt master and replies with the results of said commands. It can also be used in standalone mode to apply states to a machine without a master by using C:\salt\salt-call.bat --local state.sls [yoursls]
or similar commands with --local
.
Note that this package supports two arguments: /master=yoursaltmaster and /minion=yourminionname (note the installer itself uses /minion-name, but parsing dictionary keys with the -
is painful).
These arguments can be passed to the package via the --params '/master=yoursaltmaster'. The custom salt master is recommended in most environments, the minion name is optional will default to the hostname if not supplied.
# Need to keep a copy of the C:\salt\conf\minion and minion.d files in case the user is upgrading and wants to persist their existing settings.
$chocoBackup = '$env:ProgramData\chocolatey\lib-bkp\saltconfig'
$saltConfig = 'C:\salt\conf\'
# Items to keep around, 'pki' is "identity", 'minion[_id]' is settings and ID, 'minion.d' is additional settings
#if (Test-Path $saltConfig ) { copy-item $saltConfig $chocoBackup -recurse }
# In chocolateyInstall.ps1 will need to look for a previous backup and restore files either before install or after upgrade (only IF the master & minion ID match?)
# if (Test-Path $chocoBackup) { copy-item $chocoBackup $saltConfig -recurse }
# Maybe do the backup via another package that simply assumes C:\salt\conf and performs the backup? but reverse-depends don't work here
# In chocolateyUninstall.ps1 will need to remove $chocoBackup if it exists but only if doing a real uninstall and not an upgrade
# By default, salt installs in c:\salt This package will attempt to call the uninstall executable from there.

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).
