NOTE

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

  • 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

3. Copy Your Script

choco upgrade acrylic-dns-proxy -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'0.9.35'" [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 acrylic-dns-proxy -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'0.9.35'" 
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE

Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
  Exit 0
}

Exit $exitCode

Description

Overview

Acrylic is a local DNS proxy for Windows which improves the performance of your computer by caching the responses coming from your DNS servers and helps you fight unwanted ads through a custom HOSTS file (optimized for handling hundreds of thousands of domain names) with support for wildcards and regular expressions.

This package will install Acrylic DNS Proxy into Program Files (x86), it will also add a Windows service called Acrylic DNS Proxy which will be automatically started and set to start on startup. The service will not run if you already have something bound to port 53 UDP on IPv4 or IPv6.

It also automatically creates an Inbound Firewall Rule called Allow Acrylic DNS Proxy Service, it is enabled on all interfaces, allowing any packet to hit AcrylicService.exe. The service itself however is configured to limit its responses to local IPs, this is configurable.

The 2 executables to play with are AcrylicController.exe and AcrylicConsole.exe. The controller controls the service, while the console is an interactive foreground version of the service.

All configuration occurs inside the installation folder.

Uninstallation is not automated at the moment. To uninstall, navigate to installation directory and run Uninstall.exe /S.

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).
