pkgcore-0.3 < http://www.pkgcore.org >
WHAT IS PKGCORE?
pkgcore is a framework for package management; via the appropriate class plugins,
the design should allow for any underlying repository/config/format to be used;
slackwares tgzs being exempted due to lack of any real metadata, and
autopackage format being exempted due to the fact they effectively embed the
manager in each package (pkgcore *does* require being able to treat the pkg as
data, instead of autopackages method of handing resolution/all manager ops off
to the package script).
WHAT DOES PKGCORE REQUIRE?
At least python verison 2.4, and snakeoil- snakeoil is a utility library with
misc optimizations split out of pkgcore for others to use. Available via
http://pkgcore.org/trac/wiki/Releases .
WHO TO CONTACT IF I FIND A BUG?
Please submit a bug/ticket via http://www.pkgcore.org. Barring that, please at
least send the details to pkgcore-bugs@pkgcore.org. Please do not use
bugs.gentoo.org as the first step; any bugs, pkgcore devs should filter before
passing up at this point.
You can also stop by at #pkgcore on irc.freenode.net.
DOCUMENTATION?
Please take a look at either doc/ and dev-notes/ ; additionally, the code for
the most part has docstrings, thus pydoc is a good reference.
doc/getting-started.rst is a good introduction if you're just getting started.
If you want to start hacking, take a look at dev-notes/developing.rst.
In addition, html documentation is available at
http://api.pkgcore.org/pkgcore/ , as is postscript and pdf.
TOOLS?
pclone_cache: clone a repository cache
pebuild: low-level ebuild operations, go through phases manually
pmaint: generic utility for repository maintenance (syncing, copying...)
pmerge: generic utility for doing resolution, fetching, merging/unmerging,
etc.
pquery: generic utility for querying info about repositories, revdeps, pkg
search, vdb search, etc.
pregen: script for doing ebuild metadata regeneration; can be parallelized
TESTS?
A standalone test runner is integrated in setup.py; to run, just execute
setup.py test
Aside from that, our runner of choice is twisted's trial; ran via-
trial pkgcore
If you're doing development, trial is significantly friendlier; the standalone
runner is designed to be mainly used for installations of pkgcore, where
all tests must pass, else installation is aborted.
INSTALLING:
To build:
tar jxf pkgcore-0.XX.tar.bz2
cd pkgcore-0.XX
python setup.py build
Run tests:
cd pkgcore-0.xx
python setup.py test
or
trial pkgcore
To install:
cd pkgcore-0.xx
python setup.py install
pplugincache
