🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

kpackagetool6 is a command line tool to install, list, remove Plasma packages. that's it. that's the whole vibe. it does the thing so you don't have to fight a GUI about it 💅

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -v, --version — Displays version information. it's giving "who am I" but for software 🫶
• -h, --help — Displays this help. the classic cry for guidance, and honestly? valid.
• --hash path — Generate a SHA1 hash for the package at path. hashing era 🔥
• -g, --global — For install or remove, operates on packages installed for all users. that's the shared-with-everyone energy 👑
• -t, --type type — The type of package, corresponding to the service type of the package plugin, e.g. KPackage/Generic, Plasma/Theme, Plasma/Wallpaper, Plasma/Applet, etc. pick your fighter 💜
• -i, --install path — Install the package at path. welcome to the family, bestie ✨
• -s, --show name — Show information of package name. spill the tea ☕
• -u, --upgrade path — Upgrade the package at path. glow-up time 🌈
• -l, --list — List installed packages. roll call!! 📋
• --list-types — Lists all known Package types that can be installed. the full menu of possibilities, lowkey iconic.
• -r, --remove name — Remove the package named name. it's not you, it's... actually it is you. bye 💀
• -p, --packageroot path — Absolute path to the package root. If not supplied, then the standard data directories for this Plasma session will be searched instead. so if you don't say where, it just goes looking on its own 🧚
• --generate-index path — Recreate the plugin index. To be used in conjunction with either the option -t or -g. Recreates the index for the given type or package root. Operates in the user directory, unless -g is used. rebuild-the-whole-thing energy, highkey powerful ⭐

heads up bestie: --generate-index really does want a buddy — pair it with -t or -g or it's just standing there alone at the party. and remember it works in the user directory unless you pass -g. 🫶
