Its README positions the tool as a narrower alternative to the GitHub CLI for release-asset downloads, emphasizing public downloads without authentication, asset pattern generation, automatic OS and architecture selection, and optional installation of common archive and package formats. ### Adoption history DRA is packaged for Homebrew, Arch Linux, Scoop, and winget, matching its role as a small cross-platform utility for users who often install tools from GitHub Releases. ### How it is used Users run dra download against an owner/repository pair, either interactively or in automation with automatic or pattern-based asset selection. The tool can also be used to update itself by downloading a matching asset from its own releases. ### Why package nerds care DRA is package-nerd tooling about packages themselves: it automates the recurring problem of finding the right binary asset among inconsistent GitHub Release naming schemes. ### Timeline - 2021: devmatteini/dra was created on GitHub. - 2020s: the README documented installation through prebuilt binaries, Homebrew, Arch Linux, and source builds. - 2026: the project continued publishing 0.10.x releases. ### Related projects - GitHub CLI - GitHub Releases - Homebrew - Scoop - winget ### Sources - - - - ## Security Notes broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. - **Geiger risk:** blue / medium - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal ## Source Database Details - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** dra - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Head Version:** HEAD - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** head, stable ## Other Package-Manager Records - pacman - dra - 0.10.2-1: normalized package name match | Arch Linux sync databases: dra from https://geo.mirror.pkgbuild.com/extra/os/x86_64/extra.db.tar.gz | A command line tool to download assets from GitHub releases | https://github.com/devmatteini/dra - Scoop - extras/dra: normalized package name match | Scoop official bucket manifest trees: bucket/dra.json from https://api.github.com/repos/ScoopInstaller/Extras/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - winget - CosimoMatteini.DRA: normalized package name match | Windows Package Manager source index: CosimoMatteini.DRA from https://cdn.winget.microsoft.com/cache/source.msix ## Related links - [Source-control packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/source-control-tools/) - Belongs to a source-control command family. - [Secret-risk packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/secret-risk-packages/) - Has protected-tool coverage, approval-gate, or non-low Geiger security signals. - [Terminal utility packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Text processing packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/text-processing-tools/) - Matched text, document, or structured-data processing metadata. - [rust](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/rust/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [convco](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/convco/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, release-management, rust. - [commitizen](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/commitizen/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, release-management. - [fetch](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/fetch/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, download, github. - [github-release](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/github-release/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, github, release-management, releases. - [nvchecker](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/nvchecker/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, release-management. - [prr](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/prr/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, github, rust. - [action-validator](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/action-validator/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, rust. - [add-determinism](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/add-determinism/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, rust. - [cargo-release](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/cargo-release/) - Both packages touch the same language runtime or ecosystem.
