repo(src, baseurl=None, present=True, description=None, enabled=True, gpgcheck=True, gpgkey=None, type='rpm-md')

Add/remove/update zypper repositories.

  • src: URL or name for the .repo file
  • baseurl: the baseurl of the repo (if name is not a URL)
  • present: whether the .repo file should be present
  • description: optional verbose description
  • enabled: whether this repo is enabled
  • gpgcheck: whether set gpgcheck=1
  • gpgkey: the URL to the gpg key for this repo
  • type: the type field this repo (defaults to rpm-md)

Baseurl/description/gpgcheck/gpgkey: These are only valid when name is a filename (ie not a URL). This is for manual construction of repository files. Use a URL to download and install remote repository files.

Examples:

.. code:: python

# Download a repository file
zypper.repo(
    name="Install container virtualization repo via URL",
    src="https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Virtualization:containers/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/Virtualization:containers.repo",
)

# Create the repository file from baseurl/etc
zypper.repo(
    name="Install container virtualization repo",
    src=="Virtualization:containers (openSUSE_Tumbleweed)",
    baseurl="https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Virtualization:/containers/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/",
)

rpm(src, present=True)

Add/remove .rpm file packages.

  • src: filename or URL of the .rpm package
  • present: whether ore not the package should exist on the system

URL sources with present=False: If the .rpm file isn't downloaded, pyinfra can't remove any existing package as the file won't exist until mid-deploy.

Example:

.. code:: python

zypper.rpm(
   name="Install task from rpm",
   src="https://github.com/go-task/task/releases/download/v2.8.1/task_linux_amd64.rpm",
)
