manjaro-tools
=============
Manjaro-tools-0.9.14
User manual
###1. manjaro-tools.conf
manjaro-tools.conf is the central configuration file for manjaro-tools.
By default, the config is installed in
~~~
/etc/manjaro-tools/manjaro-tools.conf
~~~
A user manjaro-tools.conf can be placed in
~~~
$HOME/.config/manjaro-tools.conf
~~~
If the userconfig is present, manjaro-tools will load the userconfig values, however, if variables have been set in the systemwide
~~~
/etc/manjaro-tools/manjaro-tools.conf
~~~
these values take precedence over the userconfig.
Best practise is to leave systemwide file untouched.
By default it is commented and shows just initialization values done in code.
Tools configuration is done in manjaro-tools.conf or by args.
Specifying args will override manjaro-tools.conf settings.

###2. buildpkg
buildpkg is the chroot build script of manjaro-tools.
It it run in a abs/pkgbuilds directory which contains directories with PKGBUILD.
######manjaro-tools.conf supports the makepkg.conf variables
####Arguments
~~~
$ buildpkg -h
Usage: buildpkg [options] [--] [makepkg args]
-p <pkg> Buildset or pkg [default: default]
-a <arch> Arch [default: auto]
-b <branch> Branch [default: stable]
-r <dir> Chroots directory
[default: /var/lib/manjaro-tools/buildpkg]
-i <pkg> Install a package into the working copy of the chroot
-c Recreate chroot
-w Clean up cache and sources
-n Install and run namcap check
-s Sign packages
-u udev base-devel group (no systemd)
-q Query settings and pretend build
-h This help
~~~
######* build sysvinit package for both arches and branch testing:
* i686(buildsystem is x86_64)
~~~
buildpkg -p sysvinit -a i686 -b testing -cwsn
~~~
* for x86_64
~~~
buildpkg -p sysvinit -b testing -cswn
~~~
You can drop the branch arg if you set the branch in manjaro-tools.conf
The arch can also be set in manjaro-tools.conf, but under normal conditions, it is better to specify the non native arch by -a parameter.
######* -c
* Removes the chroot dir
* If the -c parameter is not used, buildpkg will update the existing chroot or create a new one if none is present.
######* -w
* Cleans pkgcache, and logfiles
######* -s
* Signs the package when built
######* -n
* Installs the built package in the chroot and runs a namcap check
######* -u
* Create udev build root (for eudev builds)
###3. buildiso
buildiso is used to build manjaro-iso-profiles. It is run insde the profiles folder.
#####Packages for livecd only:
* manjaro-livecd-cli-installer
* manjaro-livecd-openrc
* manjaro-livecd-systemd
####Arguments
~~~
$ buildiso -h
Usage: buildiso [options]
-p <profile> Buildset or profile [default: default]
-a <arch> Arch [default: auto]
-b <branch> Branch [default: stable]
-r <dir> Chroots directory
[default: /var/lib/manjaro-tools/buildiso]
-t <dir> Target directory
[default: /var/cache/manjaro-tools/iso]
-c Disable clean work dir
-i Build images only
-s Generate iso only
Requires pre built images (-i)
-v Verbose output, show profies detail (-q)
-q Query settings and pretend build
-h This help
~~~
######* build xfce iso profile for both arches and branch testing on x86_64 build system
* i686 (buildsystem is x86_64)
~~~
buildiso -p xfce -a i686 -b testing
~~~
* for x86_64
~~~
buildiso -p xfce -b testing
~~~
The branch can be defined also in manjaro-tools.conf, but a manual parameter will always override conf settings.
####Special parameters
######* -i
* Build images only
* will stop after all packages have been installed. No iso sqfs compression will be executed
######* -s
* Use this to sqfs compress the chroots if you previously used -i.
###4. buildset
buildpkg and buildiso support building from buildsets
Default location of sets is:
~~~
/etc/manjaro-tools/manjaro-tools/sets/pkg
/etc/manjaro-tools/manjaro-tools/sets/iso
~~~
but it can be configured in the manjaro-tools.conf.
buildset is a little helper tool to easily create buildsets.
It is run inside the abs/pkgbuilds or iso profiles directory.
####Arguments
~~~
$ buildset -h
Usage: buildset [options]
-c <name> Create set
-r <name> Remove set
-s <name> Show set
-i Iso mode
-q Query sets
-h This help
~~~
######* create a pkg buildset for lxqt
~~~
buildset -c lxqt-0.8
~~~
######* create a iso buildset
~~~
buildset -ic manjaro-0.9.0
~~~
The buildset name should not be a name of a package or profile!
Else buildpkg/buildiso won't recognize the build list and will only build the package/profile specified. The -p arg handles set and package/profile name.
If you create a buildset manually, the buildset must have a .set extension.
* Examples:
~~~
/etc/manjaro-tools/sets/pkg/lxqt-0.8.set
/etc/manjaro-tools/sets/iso/manjaro-0.9.0.set
~~~
###5. buildtree
buildtree is a little tools to sync arch abs and manjaro PKGBUILD git repos.
####Arguments
~~~
$ buildtree -h
Usage: buildtree [options]
-s Sync manjaro tree
-a Sync arch abs
-c Clean package tree
-q Query settings
-h This help
~~~
######* sync arch and manjaro trees
~~~
buildtree -as
~~~
###6. manjaro-chroot
manjaro-chroot is a little tool to quickly chroot into a second system installed on the host.
If the automount option is enabled, manjaro-chroot will detect installed systems with os-prober, and pops up a list with linux systems to select from.
If there is only 1 system installed besides the host system, no list will pop up and it will automatically mount the second system.
~~~
$ manjaro-chroot -h
usage: ${0##*/} chroot-dir [command]
-a Automount detected linux system
-q Query settings and pretend
-h Print this help message
If 'command' is unspecified, manjaro-chroot will launch /bin/sh.
~~~
######* automount
~~~
manjaro-chroot -a
~~~
######* mount manually
~~~
manjaro-chroot /mnt /bin/bash
~~~
