NOTE: This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.

1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment

Please see the organizational deployment guide

  • 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://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. Enter your internal repository url

(this should look similar to https://chocolatey.org/api/v2)

4. Choose your deployment method:


choco upgrade mbruler -y --source="'STEP 3 URL'" [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 mbruler -y --source="'STEP 3 URL'"
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE

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

Exit $exitCode

Description

MB-Ruler offers several measurement instruments for measuring distances and angles on the screen.

All measurement instruments are displayed in an unobtrusive, almost-transparent layer above all other items on the screen. Therefore, you can integrate its use neatly with other applications while continuing to work with the applications below the MB-Ruler.

Features

  • triangular ruler
  • coordinate system
  • screen cutter (for the easy creation of screen shots)
  • RGB picker
  • screen loupe
  • overlay objects
  • remote interface

The general use of MB-Ruler is very easy. All functions can be accessed through the context menu (right mouse button) of the MB-Ruler Icon in the taskbar. Help on using MB-Ruler can be found here and here.

License

MB-Ruler is freeware for private and non-commercial use.
If you use MB-Ruler in a commercial environment, you must order a license after a test period of 14 days.
