    I have a similar one but I did it this way:

    
    function ins {
      PACKAGE="${1}"
      exists() {
        command -v "$1" >/dev/null 2>&1
      }
    
      if exists dnf; then #Fedora
        sudo dnf update && sudo dnf install -y $PACKAGE
      elif exists apt; then #Debian
        sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y $PACKAGE
      elif exists apk; then #Alpine
        apk -U upgrade && apk add $PACKAGE
      elif exists emerge; then #Gentoo
        sudo emerge $PACKAGE
      elif exists zypper; then #Suse
        sudo zypper ref && sudo zypper install $PACKAGE
      elif exists pacman; then #Arch
        pacman -S $PACKAGE
      elif exists brew; then #MacOS
        brew install $PACKAGE
      else
        echo "Error can't install package $PACKAGE. No package manager is detected."
        exit 1;
      fi
    }

      Actually that’s the install one. Here’s the upgrade one:

      
      function upg {
        exists() {
          command -v "$1" >/dev/null 2>&1
        }
      
        if exists dnf; then #Fedora
          sudo dnf update && sudo dnf -y upgrade && sudo dnf -y autoremove
        elif exists apt; then #Debian
          sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade -y
        elif exists apk; then #Alpine
          apk -U upgrade
        elif exists emerge; then #Gentoo
          sudo emerge --ask --verbose --update --deep --newuse @world && sudo emerge --ask --verbose --depclean
        elif exists zypper; then #Suse
          sudo zypper ref && sudo zypper update
        elif exists pacman; then #Arch
          pacman -Syu
        elif exists brew; then #MacOS
          brew update && brew upgrade
        else
          echo "Error: cannot update packages. No package manager is detected."
          exit 1;
        fi
      
        if exists snap; then #Snaps
          sudo snap refresh
        fi
        if exists flatpak; then #Flatpak
          flatpak update -y
        fi
      }
