okay bestie, so this is the manual page for installmgr from the General Commands Manual section, and she is giving command-line-tool-that-does-one-thing-really-well. sit down, grab a strawberry πŸ“, and let's get into it.

installmgr [-r | -rl | -rd] [RemoteSrcName]

installmgr -ri [RemoteSrcName] [ModuleName]

like, look at that menu of options. no notes. πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

So basically, installmgr is a command line utility to manipulate SWORD modules. she can install, remove, list and update SWORD modules, and she does it from both local and network locations β€” she's versatile like that, she contains multitudes, main character energy fr fr. ✨

πŸ’€ okay but listen: please note that modules will be installed into /usr/share/sword without using APT. like, not through your package manager at all. so if you use this utility, you will not be able to uninstall these modules using apt-get, aptitude, synaptic and similar tools. they're just gonna live there. rent free. forever. πŸ™ˆ

not me warning you about future-you's uninstall regret. anyway. 🫢


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -init β€” creates the basic user configuration file. ⚠️ heads up though: this will overwrite the existing one. so if you had a config you loved, it's gone, bestie, she doesn't ask twice.
  • -l β€” lists the SWORD modules you currently have installed. a little inventory moment. πŸ“‹
  • -u [ModuleName] β€” uninstalls the module. bye bye, we hardly knew ye. πŸ‘‹
  • -s β€” lists the available remote sources. window shopping, but for sources. πŸ›οΈ
  • [-r | -rl | -rd] [RemoteSrcName] β€” these bad boys are what you use to manipulate remote sources:
    • -r β€” refreshes the remote source. glow-up time. ✨
    • -rl β€” lists the available modules from the remote source.
    • -rd β€” lists the new/updated modules from the remote source. only the fresh ones, iykyk. πŸ”₯
  • -ri [RemoteSrcName] [ModuleName] β€” installs a module from a remote source. the long-distance-relationship install. πŸ’ž
  • -ll [PATH] β€” lists the available modules at a specified local path. keeping it local, keeping it cute. 🏠
  • -li [PATH] [ModuleName] β€” installs a module from a local path. no network required, just vibes. 🌈
