NAME¶
dnf4-groups-manager - DNF groups-manager Plugin
Create and edit groups repository metadata files.
SYNOPSIS¶
dnf groups-manager [options] [package-name-spec [package-name-spec ...]]
DESCRIPTION¶
groups-manager plugin is used to create or edit a group metadata file for a repository. This is often much easier than writing/editing the XML by hand. The groups-manager can load an entire file of groups metadata and either create a new group or edit an existing group and then write all of the groups metadata back out.
ARGUMENTS¶
- <package-name-spec>
- Package to add to a group or remove from a group.
OPTIONS¶
All general DNF options are accepted, see Options in dnf(8) for details.
- --load=<path_to_comps.xml>
- Load the groups metadata information from the specified file before performing any operations. Metadata from all files are merged together if the option is specified multiple times.
- --save=<path_to_comps.xml>
- Save the result to this file. You can specify the name of a file you are loading from as the data will only be saved when all the operations have been performed. This option can also be specified multiple times.
- --merge=<path_to_comps.xml>
- This is the same as loading and saving a file, however the “merge” file is loaded before any others and saved last.
- Also print the result to stdout.
- --id=<id>
- The id to lookup/use for the group. If you don’t specify an <id>, but do specify a name that doesn’t refer to an existing group, then an id for the group is generated based on the name.
- -n <name>, --name=<name>
- The name to lookup/use for the group. If you specify an existing group id, then the group with that id will have it’s name changed to this value.
