Package Management

Termux uses apt and dpkg for package management, similar to Ubuntu or Debian. Many quirks from Ubuntu are carried over here.

Install package(s):

pkg i <package name>

Update and upgrade packages:

pkg up <package name>

Remove/Uninstall Package(s):

pkg un <package name>

List files 'owned' by package:

pkg f <package name>

Reinstall a Package(s):

pkg re <package name>

Show some info about package(s):

pkg sh <package name>

Search package(s):

pkg se <package name> or <regex>

List all packages:

pkg list-a

List all installed packages:

pkg list-i
  • A quick warning for root users: if you prefer to use apt over pkg - never run it as root as you will mess up file permissions and SELinux contexts so you won't be able to use it as normal user. If you did this and your environment was broken, do not ask for help - this is your own fault !

Servers & Daemons

Termux is capable of accessing remote devices by using some common tools. It is also possible to turn a device running Termux into remote controlled server.

  • FTP Server (requires busybox):
busybox tcpsvd -vE 0.0.0.0 2121 busybox ftpd -w path/to/serve

Warning: -w allows upload and don't use port below 1024 or else you may get permission denied error.

busybox httpd -p 0.0.0.0:8080
  • HTTP Proxy Server
tinyproxy -d

Tinyproxy
