DevUp

Rebuild your entire dev environment with one command.

npx devup-cli

New machine? Run once, go grab a coffee, come back — everything's ready.

The Problem

You got a new laptop. Now you need to:

1. Install Git, Node, Python, Docker, FFmpeg...
2. Clone 12 repos scattered across GitHub
3. Figure out which uses npm, which uses pnpm, which uses pip
4. Run the right install command for each one
5. Remember which port each project runs on

That's half a day gone. And you'll forget something.

The Fix

devup

[Phase 1] System tools...

  git OK
  node OK
  Installing docker...
  docker installed!

[Phase 2] Repos...

  CloudPipe: cloning...
  CloudPipe: installing deps (pm2)...
  CloudPipe: done!

  RePic: pulling...
  RePic: installing deps (pnpm)...
  RePic: done!

  Ytify: cloning...
  Ytify: installing deps (pip)...
  Ytify: done!

  All tools & repos ready!

One command. Every tool installed. Every repo cloned. Every dependency resolved.

Smart Detection (powered by ZeroSetup)

DevUp uses ZeroSetup to auto-detect each project:

| Lock File | Detected PM | Install Command | |-----------|-------------|-----------------| | pnpm-lock.yaml | pnpm | pnpm install | | yarn.lock | yarn | yarn install | | bun.lockb | bun | bun install | | package-lock.json | npm | npm install | | uv.lock | uv | uv sync | | Pipfile | pipenv | pipenv install | | poetry.lock | poetry | poetry install | | requirements.txt | pip | pip install -r requirements.txt |

No manual postInstall config needed. DevUp reads your lock files and does the right thing.

It also auto-detects:

• Runtime (Node / Python / both)
• Framework (Express, Next.js, FastAPI, Flask...)
• Entry point and start command
• Global tools needed (pm2, etc.)

New Machine? 3 Steps Done.

拿到新電腦，只要有 Node.js：

npm i -g devup-cli        # 1. 裝 DevUp
devup init                # 2. 生成設定檔 ~/.devup/dev.config.json
# 編輯設定檔，貼上你的 repo URLs
devup                     # 3. 一鍵搞定

設定檔就是一個 JSON，記錄你所有的工具和專案：

{
  "baseDir": "~/workspace",
  "tools": [
    { "name": "git",    "cmd": "git",    "winget": "Git.Git" },
    { "name": "node",   "cmd": "node",   "winget": "OpenJS.NodeJS.LTS" },
    { "name": "python", "cmd": "python", "winget": "Python.Python.3.12" }
  ],
  "repos": [
    { "url": "https://github.com/you/project-a.git" },
    { "url": "https://github.com/you/project-b.git" },
    { "url": "https://github.com/you/project-c.git" }
  ]
}

就這樣。只要 URL。DevUp 自動偵測其他一切。

這個 JSON 跟著你的 devup repo 走（已經在 GitHub 上）。換電腦時 clone devup，devup 一跑 — 所有工具裝好，所有 repo clone 完，所有依賴裝好。比 Docker 還猛，不用容器，直接原生環境。

Install

npm install -g devup-cli

Usage

devup              # Full setup (install tools + clone/pull all repos)
devup init         # Generate sample config at ~/.devup/
devup add <url>    # Add a repo to config
devup scan         # Auto-detect repos in workspace, add missing ones
devup sync         # Sync config across machines (git pull + push)
devup ls           # List all projects with detected run commands
devup run <name>   # Launch a project

Cross-Machine Sync

# Computer A: 加了新專案
devup add https://github.com/someone/new-project.git
devup sync         # push config 到 GitHub

# Computer B: 同步
devup sync         # pull 最新 config
devup              # 自動 clone 新專案 + 裝依賴

Auto-Scan

手動 clone 了一堆東西到 workspace？

devup scan         # 掃描 workspace，自動把新 repo 加進 config
devup sync         # 同步到 GitHub

Config

dev.config.json 放在當前目錄或 ~/.devup/dev.config.json 都行。

Tool fields

| Field | Description | |-------|-------------| | name | Display name | | cmd | Command to check existence (where <cmd>) | | winget | winget package ID for auto-install |

Repo fields

| Field | Description | |-------|-------------| | url | Git clone URL (required) | | name | Folder name override (auto-extracted from URL) | | branch | Branch to checkout (optional) | | logo | Logo path for GUI (optional) | | postInstall | Manual override for install command (optional) | | run | Manual override for start command (optional) |

Manual overrides exist but you almost never need them — ZeroSetup handles detection automatically.

Example: devup ls

Projects:

  CloudPipe              pm2 start ecosystem.config.js
  RePic                  npm run dev [pnpm]
  ReVid                  npm run dev
  Ytify                  python main.py
  PyClick                python tray_clicker.py
  Screenshot-OCR         npm run dev

ZeroSetup + DevUp

These are sister projects:

| | ZeroSetup | DevUp | |---|-----------|-------| | Scope | Single project | Entire dev environment | | Does | Generate setup.bat for any project | Clone all repos + install all tools | | For | End users deploying your app | Developers setting up their workspace |

DevUp uses ZeroSetup as its detection engine. When DevUp clones a repo, ZeroSetup scans it and tells DevUp exactly what to install and how to run it.

GUI

DevUp also includes an Electron desktop app for visual project launching.

cd gui && npm install && npm start

• Tools status at a glance
• One-click Run / Stop for each project
• Sync All button to pull all repos
