In this stream, we looked into the process of converting a manually updated Chocolatey Package into one which is automatically automated. This was done using the AU PowerShell Module:

I was joined on this stream by Maurice Kevenaar (  / mkevenaar  ) who is a Community Chocolatey Package Maintainer, with 81 packages to his name. He currently uses the AU system, and helped walk through what is required to convert to using AU for this package.

This entailed creating a update.ps1 file, with the specific functions that are required to make AU work. The end result of this stream can be seen here:
