Package Installer for Barge

Usage

pkg {build|install} [-f] <package-name> [build options]
pkg show <package-name>
pkg list

pkg build [-f] [build options]

Build a package and create /opt/pkg/<version>/barge-pkg-<package-name>-<version>.tar.gz. Or download it if the prebuilt package is available.
-f option forces it to build a package.

pkg install [-f] [build options]

Install (and build/download if necessary) /opt/pkg/<version>/barge-pkg-<package-name>-<version>.tar.gz into the root filesystem.
-f option forces it to build a package and then install.

pkg show

List files and directroies in /opt/pkg/<version>/barge-pkg-<package-name>-<version>.tar.gz to install.

pkg list

List /opt/pkg/<version>/barge-pkg-*-<version>.tar.gz you have locally.

Notes

It installs files in a package onto the root filesystem in RAM disk, so you have to install the pachage at each boot.
But once a package is built, installed or downloaded succesfully, it is stored at /opt/pkg for the future installation. In most of Barge distribution, /opt is persistent.
You may need [build options] to build a package properly. Please refer to the makefile of the package in Buildroot.
e.g., https://git.busybox.net/buildroot/tree/package/git/git.mk

Customising

You can use your own resources to install/build packages by creating/editing the configuration file /etc/default/pkg as below.

[bargee@barge ~]$ cat /etc/default/pkg
# Docker image to build a package
# BUILDER="ailispaw/barge-pkg"

# Folder to store built packages locally
# PKG_DIR="/opt/pkg"

# URL of a package repository to store pre-built packages
# PKG_URL="https://github.com/bargees/barge-pkg/releases/download"

Note: <VERSION> from /etc/os-release will append to these values as a tag(:<VERSION>) / a subdirectory(/<VERSION>).
