salt.modules.opkg module¶

Support for Opkg

salt.modules.opkg.available_version(*names, **kwargs)¶

Return the latest version of the named package available for upgrade or installation. If more than one package name is specified, a dict of name/version pairs is returned.

If the latest version of a given package is already installed, an empty string will be returned for that package.

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.latest_version <package name>
salt '*' pkg.latest_version <package name>
salt '*' pkg.latest_version <package1> <package2> <package3> ...

Delete a repo from /etc/opkg/*.conf

If the file does not contain any other repo configuration, the file itself will be deleted.

CLI Examples:

salt '*' pkg.del_repo alias

salt.modules.opkg.file_dict(*packages)¶

List the files that belong to a package, grouped by package. Not specifying any packages will return a list of _every_ file on the system's package database (not generally recommended).

CLI Examples:

salt '*' pkg.file_list httpd
salt '*' pkg.file_list httpd postfix
salt '*' pkg.file_list

salt.modules.opkg.file_list(*packages)¶

List the files that belong to a package. Not specifying any packages will return a list of _every_ file on the system's package database (not generally recommended).

CLI Examples:

salt '*' pkg.file_list httpd
salt '*' pkg.file_list httpd postfix
salt '*' pkg.file_list

salt.modules.opkg.get_repo(alias)¶

Display a repo from the /etc/opkg/*.conf

CLI Examples:

salt '*' pkg.get_repo alias

salt.modules.opkg.hold(name=None, pkgs=None, sources=None, **kwargs)¶

Set package in 'hold' state, meaning it will not be upgraded.

name

The name of the package, e.g., 'tmux'

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.hold <package name>

pkgs

A list of packages to hold. Must be passed as a python list.

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.hold pkgs='["foo", "bar"]'

salt.modules.opkg.install(name=None, refresh=False, pkgs=None, sources=None, **kwargs)¶

Install the passed package, add refresh=True to update the opkg database.

name

The name of the package to be installed. Note that this parameter is ignored if either "pkgs" or "sources" is passed. Additionally, please note that this option can only be used to install packages from a software repository. To install a package file manually, use the "sources" option.

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.install <package name>

refresh

Whether or not to refresh the package database before installing.

Multiple Package Installation Options:

pkgs

A list of packages to install from a software repository. Must be passed as a python list.

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.install pkgs='["foo", "bar"]'

sources

A list of IPK packages to install. Must be passed as a list of dicts, with the keys being package names, and the values being the source URI or local path to the package. Dependencies are automatically resolved and marked as auto-installed.

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.install sources='[{"foo": "salt://foo.deb"},{"bar": "salt://bar.deb"}]'

install_recommends

Whether to install the packages marked as recommended. Default is True.

Returns a dict containing the new package names and versions:

{'<package>': {'old': '<old-version>',
               'new': '<new-version>'}}

salt.modules.opkg.latest_version(*names, **kwargs)¶

Return the latest version of the named package available for upgrade or installation. If more than one package name is specified, a dict of name/version pairs is returned.

If the latest version of a given package is already installed, an empty string will be returned for that package.

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.latest_version <package name>
salt '*' pkg.latest_version <package name>
salt '*' pkg.latest_version <package1> <package2> <package3> ...

salt.modules.opkg.list_pkgs(versions_as_list=False, **kwargs)¶

List the packages currently installed in a dict:

{'<package_name>': '<version>'}

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.list_pkgs
salt '*' pkg.list_pkgs versions_as_list=True

salt.modules.opkg.list_repos()¶

Lists all repos on /etc/opkg/*.conf

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.list_repos

salt.modules.opkg.list_upgrades(refresh=True)¶

List all available package upgrades.

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.list_upgrades

salt.modules.opkg.mod_repo(alias, **kwargs)¶

Modify one or more values for a repo. If the repo does not exist, it will be created, so long as uri is defined.

The following options are available to modify a repo definition:

alias

alias by which opkg refers to the repo.

compressed

defines (True or False) if the index file is compressed

enabled

salt '*' pkg.mod_repo alias enabled=False

salt.modules.opkg.owner(*paths)¶

Return the name of the package that owns the file. Multiple file paths can be passed. Like pkg.version <salt.modules.opkg.version, if a single path is passed, a string will be returned, and if multiple paths are passed, a dictionary of file/package name pairs will be returned.

If the file is not owned by a package, or is not present on the minion, then an empty string will be returned for that path.

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.owner /usr/bin/apachectl salt '*' pkg.owner /usr/bin/apachectl /usr/bin/basename

salt.modules.opkg.purge(name=None, pkgs=None, **kwargs)¶
