💖 RPMAUTOSPEC 💖

ok so bestie. rpmautospec is the vibe. it's giving command-line tool, it's giving main character, and it's literally here to make your spec files stop being a whole mess. this page is the top-level one — the mothership, if you will — and it's written in the rpmautospec manual. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

rpmautospec [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

like, options first, then a command, then whatever args that command wants. simple. iconic. no notes. 💅

🦋 OPTIONS 🦋

  • --pager / --no-pager — do you want a pager to pop open automatically? this one says yes pls. [default: pager]
  • -q, --quiet — be less talkative. shhh. 🤫
  • --debug — turn on debugging output so you can actually see what's going on under the hood. 🔍
  • --error-on-unparseable-spec / --no-error-on-unparseable-spec — if the current version of the spec file can't be parsed, do we throw an error? [default: error-on-unparseable-spec] yes babe, we scream about it. that's the default. 🔥
