Those of you subscribed to a snap channel may have noticed some nice
changes that happened with 2.1 release. The juju snap package now
utilizes classic mode, and all channels (including stable) are now
active. You should expect feature parity (including things like bash
completion) with the debian package of juju. In addition, the juju snap
also shares environments with the debian installed version. This means
your current models and credentials are utilized.
I would encourage those that haven't yet tried out the snap to do so and
provide feedback. I think you'll find it a quick and easy way to get juju.
snap install juju --classic
Those of you who want to build your own snap to share will also find it
much easier. By default, running snapcraft on the juju tree will build a
snap using your local tree and will bundle the needed agent. The
snapcraft.yaml also points out how easily you can grab a specific
branch, commit or tag to snap up. Sharing your own version of the juju
client with the world is as simple as "snapcraft, snapcraft release".
You'll find the snap related things in the snap folder in the juju git
tree. As always PRs welcome!
