> A [Scoop](https://scoop.sh/) bucket to install the Playdate SDK.

[![License](https://img.shields.io/github/license/idleberg/scoop-playdate-sdk?style=for-the-badge)](LICENSE)

[![Version](https://img.shields.io/github/v/release/idleberg/scoop-playdate-sdk?style=for-the-badge)](https://github.com/idleberg/scoop-playdate-sdk/releases)

[![Build](https://img.shields.io/github/actions/workflow/status/idleberg/scoop-playdate-sdk/test.yml?style=for-the-badge)](https://github.com/idleberg/scoop-playdate-sdk/releases)

## Usage

After adding the bucket, you can install the Playdate SDK like you would any other software in Scoop:

```powershell

# Add SDK bucket

scoop bucket add playdate-sdk https://github.com/idleberg/scoop-playdate-sdk

# Optional: Install sudo helper to elevate PowerShell

scoop install sudo

# Install SDK

sudo scoop install playdate-sdk

```

:warning: You might need an elevated shell to install/uninstall the SDK, similar to the example above

## Beta Versions

This bucket also allows installing beta versions of the SDK.

```powershell

sudo scoop install playdate-sdk-beta

```

## Known Issues

Occasionally, Scoop might not be able to delete Playdate SDK's install folder and you will end up with an error similar to this:

```

ERROR Couldn't remove '~\scoop\apps\playdate-sdk\1.11.1'; it may be in use.

```

While the mentioned install folder is usually empty, Scoop will still list it as a failed installation. To fix this, you can delete the folder manually.

```powershell

Remove-Item ~\scoop\apps\playdate-sdk

# Beta versions

Remove-Item ~\scoop\apps\playdate-sdk-beta

```
