DESCRIPTION

Package mtree reading functions are provided to fill gaps in libarchive's mtree reader, notably "md5digest" and "sha256digest" which are currently not read by libarchive. Support is incomplete and should only be used to supplement libalpm's native mtree reader.

pu_mtree_reader_t *pu_mtree_reader_open_stream(FILE *stream);

Open a file stream for parsing.

pu_mtree_reader_t *pu_mtree_reader_open_package(alpm_handle_t *h, alpm_pkg_t *p);

Open an installed package's mtree file for parsing. Results are undefined if "p" is not a locally installed package.

pu_mtree_t *pu_mtree_reader_next(pu_mtree_reader_t *reader, pu_mtree_t *dest);

Read and return the next entry in the mtree file. If "dest" is "NULL" a new "pu_mtree_t" object will be allocated that should be freed by the caller. Otherwise, it will be filled with the parsed data. Internally allocated memory will automatically be freed as needed.

void pu_mtree_free(pu_mtree_t *mtree);

Free a "pu_mtree_t" struct.

void pu_mtree_reader_free(pu_mtree_reader_t *reader);

Free a "pu_mtree_reader_t" object.

alpm_list_t *pu_mtree_load_pkg_mtree(alpm_handle_t *handle, alpm_pkg_t *pkg);

Returns a list of mtree entries for "pkg". DEPRECATED: use "pu_mtree_reader_open_package" instead.

EXAMPLES

Print file md5sums for a package:

pu_mtree_t *m;
pu_mtree_reader_t *r;
if((r = pu_mtree_reader_open_package(handle, pkg)) == NULL) {
    fprintf(stderr, "error: unable to load mtree data for '%s'\n",
       alpm_pkg_get_name(pkg));
    return;
}
while((m = pu_mtree_reader_next(r, NULL))) {
    const char *md5 = m->md5digest;
    printf("%s: %s\n", m->path,
        md5 && md5[0] != '\0' ? md5 : "(no md5sum provided)");
    pu_mtree_free(m);
}
if(!reader->eof) {
    fprintf(stderr, "error: unable to read mtree data for '%s'\n",
       alpm_pkg_get_name(pkg));
}
pu_mtree_reader_free(r);
