Deployment Method:
This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.
1. Enter Your Internal Repository Url
(this should look similar to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/)
2. Setup Your Environment
1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment
Please see the organizational deployment guide
2. Get the package into your environment
Option 1: Cached Package (Unreliable, Requires Internet - Same As Community)-
Open Source or Commercial:
- Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. 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. See source command for more information.
- You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download
-
Open Source
-
Download the package:
Download - Follow manual internalization instructions
-
-
Package Internalizer (C4B)
-
Run: (additional options)
choco download choco-protocol-support --internalize --version=0.0.1 --source=https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/
-
For package and dependencies run:
choco push --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'"
- Automate package internalization
-
Run: (additional options)
3. Copy Your Script
choco upgrade choco-protocol-support -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'0.0.1'" [other options]
See options you can pass to upgrade.
See best practices for scripting.
Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.
If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:
choco upgrade choco-protocol-support -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'0.0.1'"
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE
Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
Exit 0
}
Exit $exitCode

Implements installing of Chocolatey packages from the web using choco:// Protocol with choco-protocol-support.cmd (and Sudo).
WHO IS THIS FOR?
choco-protocol-support is designed for those who aren't comfortable with the Command Prompt or just don't like to type much. choco-protocol-support allows you to install Chocolatey packages by simply clicking choco:// URLs in your web browser. choco-protocol-support is also useful for support professionals who know the difficulty of getting end users to type in commands correctly. Now you can give end users a URL via e-mail or corporate software web page to click and have a Chocolatey package installed!
If you like the convienance of this package, you should also check out Install Chocolatey Packages from your Web Browser which is very similar in concept as well as (unofficial) Chocolatey Shortcuts (Config). All three of these make installing Chocolatey packages very user friendly.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
choco-protocol-support configures Windows to use choco://packagename URLs and pass them along to choco-protocol-support.cmd which then processes the URL and runs Chocolatey's cinst.exe ("choco install" shim) with help from Sudo to install the package. Lets hope this functionality gets built into a future version of Chocolatey and then this package can be deprecated. UPDATE: Added to Chocolatey 1.0.0 milestone!
USAGE INSTRUCTIONS:
Just click a choco://packagename URL on a web page and the package will install after one or two approval clicks.
Browser examples: Chrome | Firefox | Opera
Easy peasy, Chocolateasy!

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).
Chocolatey Pro provides runtime protection from possible malware.
