Download and verify a Manjaro ISO.
When I wrote the https://forum.manjaro.org/t/root-tip-how-to-forum-mini-guide-to-verify-iso-signature/146680 I vaguely recalled a shell script in the repo manjaro-iso-downloader but it doesn't work - at least not for me.
So I decided to wrap up some python code.
The tool provides a convenient way of downloading and verifying an ISO as they are listed on https://manjaro.org/download.
Neither Sway nor ARM is supported, sway because the files is located elsewhere and ARM because there is no signature.
Setup
The script relies on a single python package - python-requests.
On Manjaro you don't need to install it - it is default available as a dependency of pacman-mirrors.
Create the folder ~/.local/bin
mkdir -p ~/.local/bin
Then create a new file in this bin folder - name the file get-iso - then use your favorite text editor to copy paste below code into the new file.
Make the file executable
chmod +x ~/.local/bin/get-iso
Usage
$ get-iso -h
usage: get-iso [-h] [-f] {plasma,xfce,gnome,budgie,cinnamon,i3,mate}
This tool will download a named Manjaro ISO and verify the signature
positional arguments:
{plasma,xfce,gnome,budgie,cinnamon,i3,mate}
edition e.g. plasma or xfce
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-f, --full Download full ISO
get-iso version 0.1 - License GPL v3 or later
The downloaded files is placed your home folder. The script defaults to pull the minimal ISO
get-iso plasma
If you rather take the full
get-iso plasma -f
Example result of running the script
$ get-iso -f mate
Downloading: manjaro-mate-22.0-230104-linux61.iso
Downloading: manjaro-mate-22.0-230104-linux61.iso.sig
