💖 cdist-type__package_pacman — like, the whole manual, bestie 💖

okay so this is the page for cdist-type__package_pacman(7) from the cdist manual set — it's the one that manages packages with pacman 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

cdist-type__package_pacman — Manage packages with pacman 🌸

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So, pacman? Iconic. It's the package manager that's usually chilling on the Archlinux distribution doing its little package-management thing. That's literally its whole job here. 💅

🎀 REQUIRED PARAMETERS 🎀

None ✨

Like, zero. Nothing. You don't have to pass anything. She's low maintenance, no cap. 😌

👑 OPTIONAL PARAMETERS 👑

  • name — if you supply it, she uses name as the package name instead of using the object id. So basically: "call the package this, not that." 🏷️
  • state — either "present" or "absent". Defaults to "present". Present means we want it here, absent means bye-bye babe. 🚪

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

Make sure zsh is installed:

# Ensure zsh in installed
__package_pacman zsh --state present

If you don't wanna follow the pythonX packages and just always use python:

# If you don't want to follow pythonX packages, but always use python
__package_pacman python --state present --name python2

Removing an obsolete package:

# Remove obsolete package
__package_pacman puppet --state absent
