salt.modules.zypper

Package support for openSUSE via the zypper package manager

salt.modules.zypper.available_version(*names)

Return the latest version of the named package available for upgrade or installation. If more than one package name is specified, a dict of name/version pairs is returned.

If the latest version of a given package is already installed, an empty string will be returned for that package.

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.available_version <package name>
salt '*' pkg.available_version <package1> <package2> <package3> ...

salt.modules.zypper.compare(pkg1='', oper='==', pkg2='')

Compare two version strings.

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.compare '0.2.4-0' '<' '0.2.4.1-0'
salt '*' pkg.compare pkg1='0.2.4-0' oper='<' pkg2='0.2.4.1-0'

salt.modules.zypper.install(name=None, refresh=False, pkgs=None, sources=None, **kwargs)

Install the passed package(s), add refresh=True to run 'zypper refresh' before package is installed.

name

The name of the package to be installed. Note that this parameter is ignored if either "pkgs" or "sources" is passed. Additionally, please note that this option can only be used to install packages from a software repository. To install a package file manually, use the "sources" option.

CLI Example::

salt '*' pkg.install <package name>

refresh

Whether or not to refresh the package database before installing.

version

Can be either a version number, or the combination of a comparison operator (<, >, <=, >=, =) and a version number (ex. '>1.2.3-4'). This parameter is ignored if "pkgs" or "sources" is passed.

Multiple Package Installation Options:

pkgs

A list of packages to install from a software repository. Must be passed as a python list. A specific version number can be specified by using a single-element dict representing the package and its version. As with the version parameter above, comparison operators can be used to target a specific version of a package.

CLI Examples::

salt '*' pkg.install pkgs='["foo", "bar"]' salt '*' pkg.install pkgs='["foo", {"bar": "1.2.3-4"}]' salt '*' pkg.install pkgs='["foo", {"bar": "<1.2.3-4"}]'

sources

A list of RPM packages to install. Must be passed as a list of dicts, with the keys being package names, and the values being the source URI or local path to the package.

CLI Example::

salt '*' pkg.install sources='[{"foo": "salt://foo.rpm"},{"bar": "salt://bar.rpm"}]'

Returns a dict containing the new package names and versions:

{'<package>': {'old': '<old-version>',
               'new': '<new-version>'}}

salt.modules.zypper.list_pkgs()

List the packages currently installed as a dict:

{'<package_name>': '<version>'}

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.list_pkgs

salt.modules.zypper.list_upgrades(refresh=True)

List all available package upgrades on this system

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.list_upgrades

salt.modules.zypper.perform_cmp(pkg1='', pkg2='')

Do a cmp-style comparison on two packages. Return -1 if pkg1 < pkg2, 0 if pkg1 == pkg2, and 1 if pkg1 > pkg2. Return None if there was a problem making the comparison.

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.perform_cmp '0.2.4-0' '0.2.4.1-0'
salt '*' pkg.perform_cmp pkg1='0.2.4-0' pkg2='0.2.4.1-0'

salt.modules.zypper.purge(name, **kwargs)

Recursively remove a package and all dependencies which were installed with it, this will call a zypper remove -u

Return a list containing the removed packages.

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.purge <package name>

salt.modules.zypper.refresh_db()

Just run a zypper refresh, return a dict:

{'<database name>': Bool}

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.refresh_db

salt.modules.zypper.remove(name, **kwargs)

Remove a single package with zypper remove

Return a list containing the removed packages.

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.remove <package name>

salt.modules.zypper.upgrade(refresh=True)

Run a full system upgrade, a zypper upgrade

Return a dict containing the new package names and versions:

{'<package>': {'old': '<old-version>',
               'new': '<new-version>'}}

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.upgrade

salt.modules.zypper.upgrade_available(name)

Check whether or not an upgrade is available for a given package

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.upgrade_available <package name>

salt.modules.zypper.version(*names)

Returns a string representing the package version or an empty string if not installed. If more than one package name is specified, a dict of name/version pairs is returned.

CLI Example:

salt '*' pkg.version <package name>
salt '*' pkg.version <package1> <package2> <package3> ...
