Chocolatey is a Windows package manager that permits Command Line installation of apps.

Chocolatey will help to eliminate overly long installation procedures by allowing efficient software updating and deployment. It works with over 20+ installer technologies for Windows, but it can manage things you would normally Xcopy deploy (like runtime binaries and zip files). You also have the option to work with registry settings or manage files and configurations or any combination. Since it uses PowerShell, the sky is the limit for your creativity.

Chocolatey builds on technologies that are familiar:

PowerShell
Unattended installations
