New Command

Chocolatey will generate package specification files for a new package.

Usage

    choco new <name> [<options/switches>] [<property=value> <propertyN=valueN>]

Possible properties to pass:
    packageversion
    maintainername
    maintainerrepo
    installertype
    url
    url64
    silentargs

NOTE: You can pass arbitrary property value pairs
 through to templates. This really unlocks your ability to create
 packages automatically!

NOTE: Chocolatey for Business can create complete packages by just
 pointing the new command to native installers!

NOTE: Chocolatey for Business can also download and internalize remote
 resources from existing packages so that existing packages can be used
 without being tied to the internet.
 This is called automatic recompile.

Examples

    choco new bob
    choco new bob -a --version 1.2.0 maintainername="'This guy'"
    choco new bob silentargs="'/S'" url="'https://somewhere/out/there.msi'"
    choco new bob --outputdirectory Packages

NOTE: See scripting in the command reference (`choco -?`) for how to
 write proper scripts and integrations.
