Add gpth to Scoop Main

[oxjihun]

Scoop is a command-line installer for Windows. I would like to add the following manifest to https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Main so that the binary is available via scoop install main/gpth:

{
    "version": "3.4.3",
    "description": "Script that organizes the Google Takeout archive into one big chronological folder",
    "homepage": "https://github.com/TheLastGimbus/GooglePhotosTakeoutHelper",
    "license": "Apache-2.0",
    "url": "https://github.com/TheLastGimbus/GooglePhotosTakeoutHelper/releases/download/v3.4.3/gpth-windoza.exe#/gpth.exe",
    "hash": "a36ef8b546e381a05f47b2762bc17819148dbf9984e03ac979db3b2c4963d18d",
    "bin": "gpth.exe",
    "checkver": "github",
    "autoupdate": {
        "url": "https://github.com/TheLastGimbus/GooglePhotosTakeoutHelper/releases/download/v$version/gpth-windoza.exe#/gpth.exe"
    }
}

Note that, with this manifest, the binary will be automatically renamed into gpth.exe and get to exist on the PATH. This issue was written to get permission prior to any PRs. Also, is this a 32-bit binary? (asking since it will affect the manifest)

oh yeah sure

is this a 32-bit binary

nooooo? i heavily doubt it... nope probably not

if instruct me on how, and write a github action for this (or add code to existing one), i could add this officially from my account (or smth), i just didn't have the time/will to get into the details of this myself

If you would like to have a look into this by yourself, the Scoop Wiki is a great starting point; I highly recommend these two pages

• https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Scoop/wiki/App-Manifests
• https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Scoop/wiki/App-Manifest-Autoupdate

Then, you could either try to add the manifest to the official Scoop's bucket (Main) or host your own bucket by using the https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/BucketTemplate. (Buckets are roughly collections of manifests) Note that the bucket template seems to contain necessary GitHub Actions to keep manifests up-to-date.

Please feel free to ask anything, as I'd be happy to help with any unclarity or issues
