DESCRIPTION¶

rypper is a wrapper around zypper for performing repository operations in batch. It allows selection of which repositories to operate on via a number of different repository selection specifiers.

The zypper commands which can be wrapped are:

  removerepo, rr          Remove specified repository.
  modifyrepo, mr          Modify specified repository.
  refresh, ref            Refresh all repositories.
  clean                   Clean local caches.

Additionally, the zypper pseudo-command 'l' can be used to list matching repos. There are a number of options controlling the output format; run "rypper --help" for details.

If no zypper command is provided, it defaults to the 'l' pseudo-command, trying to intelligently choose which fields to display, e.g. omitting any which were included in the repo selection parameters.
