# AUR Package Manager

This project uses some packages from the Arch Linux AUR repos. As such, we are going to setup a package manager for those packages. Pacman doesn't support the AUR repos natively and this is the most accessible approach for installing AUR packages.

The commands below will setup the ```yay``` AUR package manager.

``` sh

pacman -S --needed base-devel go
useradd yay -s /usr/bin/nologin
mkdir /home/yay
chown yay: -R /home/yay
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/yay.git /opt/yay
chown yay: -R /opt/yay/
cd /opt/yay
cat > /etc/sudoers.d/yay <<EOF
yay ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
EOF
chmod 600 /etc/sudoers.d/yay
sudo -sHu yay makepkg -si
cat >> ~/.bashrc <<EOF
alias yay="/usr/bin/sudo -sHu yay /usr/bin/yay"
EOF
source ~/.bashrc

```
