mise bootstrap packages install

Install missing system packages from [bootstrap.packages]

Checks which configured packages are missing and installs them with the system package manager. This may elevate with sudo when not running as root (see the system_packages.sudo setting).

Packages can also be given explicitly in manager:package form (e.g. apt:curl, brew:jq); they are installed whether or not they appear in the config. Explicit packages and --manager scope the run to packages only.

Arguments

[PACKAGE]…

Packages in manager:package form; defaults to everything configured in [bootstrap.packages]

Flags

-m --manager <MANAGER>

Only install packages for this manager, e.g. apt, brew, or brew-cask

Choices:

  • apt
  • brew
  • brew-cask
  • dnf
  • pacman

-n --dry-run

Print the commands that would run without running them

-y --yes

Skip the confirmation prompt

--update

Refresh package manager metadata first (apt: apt-get update)

Examples:

mise bootstrap packages install
mise bootstrap packages install apt:curl brew:jq brew-cask:firefox
