NAME¶

pacman-conf - query pacman's configuration file

SYNOPSIS¶

pacman-conf [options] [<directive> ...]

pacman-conf (--repo-list|--help|--version)

DESCRIPTION¶

pacman-conf is a utility for parsing the pacman configuration file and returning script-friendly output. It is designed to properly handle non-trivial configuration features such as variable interpolation and the use of the Include directive, and guarantees that it will return the same configuration values which pacman itself would use.

pacman-conf will output the fully-resolved contents of the configuration file by default, or, if provided with the name of a configuration directive, output the contents of the given directive alone.

OPTIONS¶

-c, --config <path>

-R, --rootdir <path>

-r, --repo <remote>

-v, --verbose

-l, --repo-list

-h, --help

-V, --version

EXAMPLES¶

pacman-conf -r core Usage
