DESCRIPTION
pkg_create_new() Allocates a new struct pkg_create * which should be
freed by the caller using pkg_create_free().
pkg_create_set_format() will define the compresion format to use. By
default "txz" except if specified otherwise in pkg.conf(5). It returns
false if the compression format is unknown and fallback the the default
format.
pkg_create_set_compression_level() take a int arguments which represents
the expect compression level. 3 special values are accepted:
INT_MIN Set the fastest compression format value
0 Set the default (as specified in libarchive)
INT_MAX Set the best compression ratio
pkg_create_set_overwrite() Accept Va a boolean to define the default
behaviour when creating a package and a local file already exists. The
default behaviour is to overwrite.
pkg_create_set_rootdir() tells the program where to find the root used
for packaging (also called sometime staging area). If none is provided
pkg will consider `/'.
pkg_create_set_output_dir() Tells the program where to create the new
packages. By default it will consider the current directory of the
running program.
pkg_create_set_timestamp() Define the timestamp to use ad creation and
modification time for the files to be packaged. By default it will use
the timestamp of the files on the filesystem.
pkg_create() create a package from scratch using the metadata and plist
as input. The metadata can be either directly a UCL manifest, or a
directory containing multiple files:
+MANIFEST The UCL manifest
+DESC A textual description (optional)
shell scripts (optional):
+INSTALL Shell script that will be run during both
in post and pre install (DEPRECATED)
+PRE_INSTALL Shell script that will be run during pre
install phase
+POST_INSTALL Shell script that will be run during post
install phase
+DEINSTALL Shell script that will be run during both
in post and pre deinstall (DEPRECATED)
+PRE_DEINSTALL Shell script that will be run during pre
deinstall phase
+POST_DEINSTALL Shell script that will be run during post
deinstall phase
pkg-install Shell script that will be run during both
in post and pre install (DEPRECATED)
pkg-pre-install Shell script that will be run during pre
install phase
pkg-post-install Shell script that will be run during post
install phase
pkg-deinstall Shell script that will be run during both
in post and pre deinstall (DEPRECATED)
pkg-pre-deinstall Shell script that will be run during pre
deinstall phase
pkg-post-deinstall Shell script that will be run during post
deinstall phase
lua scripts (optional):
pkg-pre-install.lua Lua script that will be run during pre
install phase
pkg-post-install.lua Lua script that will be run during
post install phase
pkg-pre-deinstall.lua Lua script that will be run during pre
deinstall phase
pkg-post-deinstall.lua Lua script that will be run during
post deinstall phase
pkg_create_i() create a package for the provided installed pkg. If hash
is set to true then the file name will in the form:
<pkgname>-<pkgversion>-<shorthash>.<extention> instead of
<pkgname>-<pkgversion>.<extension>.
