Auto-Packages-Installation

auto_installation.sh is a bash script that automates installation of packages that are commonly needed after each new ubuntu re-installation. It is a simple script that you can use as it is, or edit it according to your favourite packages.

Included Packages:

  • Google-Chrome (Stable Version).
  • Python3.6 (It is installed by default in recent ubuntu distros, but I like to make sure it is installed).
  • Pycharm IDE (Community Version).
  • R.
  • Rstudio.
  • Atom (Text-Editor).

How To Use It:

Download the .zip file and extract it. Open the terminal and change directory to the extracted directory :

$ cd <path-to-directory>

Run the script with sudo :

$ sudo ./auto_installation.sh

Features:

  • Automatic download of packages not included in ubuntu software repositories.
  • Resume broken downloads due to network interruption.
  • Automatically accepts installation requests (Y/n).

Notes:

  • Make sure you have strong and stable network access, as the script performs several downloads and updates.
  • Old versions of ubuntu may encounter problems due to un-supported ubuntu package management.

Testing:

The script has been tested on :

  • Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

Contributions and Issues :

Thanks for your interest to contribute! Here are some issues that need your help:

  • Create checklist menu to choose which packages the user wants to be installed.
  • Test the script on more distros, report bugs.
  • Extend its functionality to support rpm packages.
