NAME

sbozyp - A package manager for Slackware's SlackBuilds.org

DESCRIPTION

Sbozyp is a command-line package manager for the SlackBuilds.org package repository. SlackBuilds.org is a collection of third-party SlackBuild scripts used to build Slackware packages. Sbozyp assumes an understanding of SlackBuilds and the SlackBuilds.org repository.

OVERVIEW

Usage: sbozyp [global_opts] <command> [command_opts] <command_args>

Every command has its own options, these are just the global ones:

-C                  Re-clone repository before running the command
-F FILE             Use FILE as the configuration file
-R REPO_NAME        Use repository REPO_NAME instead of REPO_PRIMARY
-S                  Sync repository before running the command

Commands are:

install|in          Install or upgrade a package
null|nu             Do nothing, useful in conjunction with -C or -S opts
query|qr            Query for information about a package
remove|rm           Remove a package
search|se           Search for a package using a Perl regex

Examples:

sbozyp --help
sbozyp --version
sbozyp install -S -R $REPO -f system/password-store
sbozyp query -q password-store
sbozyp remove password-store
sbozyp search system/.+
sbozyp sync
sbozyp -R $REPO -C null

CONFIGURATION

Sbozyp is configured via the /etc/sbozyp/sbozyp.conf file unless ~/.sbozyp.conf is present. An alternate configuration file can be used with the -F option.

REPOSITORY DEFINITIONS

You can define as many repositories as you wish in the configuration file. A repository definition requires these 3 variables to be set ($N is any non-negative integer):

REPO_$N_NAME
REPO_$N_GIT_URL
REPO_$N_GIT_BRANCH

Example:

REPO_7_NAME=fifteenpoint0
REPO_7_GIT_URL=git://git.slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds.git
REPO_7_GIT_BRANCH=15.0

This defines a repository that will be downloaded with git with a command like: git clone --branch $REPO_7_GIT_BRANCH $REPO_7_GIT_URL.

You can use this repository with sbozyp by specifying its name (fifteenpoint0) with the -R option. You can also make this repository the default (used when -R is omitted) by setting REPO_PRIMARY=fifteenpoint0 in your configuration file.

OTHER CONFIGURATION VARIABLES

REPO_PRIMARY

The repo to use by default when not specifying one with the -R flag. There is no default value for this variable.

REPO_ROOT

The directory to store local copies of SBo.

Defaults to REPO_ROOT=/var/lib/sbozyp/SBo.

TMPDIR

The directory used for placing working files.

Defaults to TMPDIR=/tmp.

CLEANUP

If 0 then keep built packages after installation. If 1 then remove them.
