Install module from command line

[danielporto]

Is it possible to install a zmodule with a command line instead of editing a file then calling update?
it would be nice to have something like:
zmodule install url bla and the zimrc file be updated ?
I know people like to annotate config files it but adding that line at the end of the file automatically might be useful.

Sorry, I know this is two years old, butI wrote this function (two variations of, actually) for myself to accomplish just that (I'm using OSX Ventura):

adding module from most recent contents of clipboard

zim_mod_pb() {gsed -i "$azmodule pbpaste" $ZDOTDIR/.zimrc && zimfw install}
and

adding module from string given on command line

zim_mod_cl() {gsed -i "\$azmodule $1" $ZDOTDIR/.zimrc && zimfw install}

I also wrote one for removing modules:

zim_rm() {rm -r -f $ZIM_HOME/modules/$1 && gsed -i "/$1\$/d" $ZDOTDIR/.zimrc}

I also ALSO made a MacOS shortcut for installing a module, if you'd be interested. It uses BetterTouchTools 'Get Selected Text' action, but could be modified to run with all native actions too. Hopefully this finds you well enough two years late!
