SYNOPSIS

osc [GLOBALOPTS] SUBCOMMAND [OPTS] [ARGS...]

osc help SUBCOMMAND

DESCRIPTION

openSUSE build service command-line tool.

COMMANDS

add

Mark files to be added upon the next commit

In case a URL is given the file will get downloaded and registered to be downloaded by the server as well via the download_url source service.

This is recommended for release tar balls to track their source and to help others to review your changes esp. on version upgrades.

usage:

    osc add URL [URL...]
    osc add FILE [FILE...]

addremove (ar)

Adds new files, removes disappeared files

Adds all files new in the local copy, and removes all disappeared files.

ARG, if specified, is a package working copy.

Usage:

    osc addremove [ARGS...]

Options:

    -h, --help  show this help message and exit
    -r, --recursive
                If CWD is a project dir then scan all package dirs as
                well

aggregatepac

"Aggregate" a package to another package

Aggregation of a package means that the build results (binaries) of a package are basically copied into another project. This can be used to make packages available from building that are needed in a project but available only in a different project. Note that this is done at the expense of disk space. See http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_Tips_and_Tricks#link_and_aggregate for more information.

The DESTPAC name is optional; the source packages' name will be used if DESTPAC is omitted.

usage:

    osc aggregatepac SOURCEPRJ SOURCEPAC DESTPRJ [DESTPAC]

Options:

    -h, --help  show this help message and exit
    -d, --disable-publish
                disable publishing of the aggregated package
    -m SRC=TARGET[,SRC=TARGET], --map-repo=SRC=TARGET[,SRC=TARGET]
                Allows repository mapping(s) to be given as
                SRC=TARGET[,SRC=TARGET]
    --nosources
                ignore source packages when copying build results to
                destination project

api

Issue an arbitrary request to the API

Useful for testing.

URL can be specified either partially (only the path component), or fully with URL scheme and hostname ('http://...').

Note the global -A and -H options (see osc help).

Examples:

  osc api /source/home:user
  osc api -X PUT -T /etc/fstab source/home:user/test5/myfstab

Usage:

    osc api URL

Options:

    -h, --help  show this help message and exit

                specify filename to upload, uses PUT mode by default
    -d STRING, --data=STRING
                specify string data for e.g. POST
    -X HTTP_METHOD, -m HTTP_METHOD, --method=HTTP_METHOD
                specify HTTP method to use (GET|PUT|DELETE|POST)

branch (bco, branchco, getpac)

Branch a package

[See http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_Collaboration for information on this topic.]

Create a source link from a package of an existing project to a new subproject of the requesters home project (home:branches:)

    home:USERNAME:branches:PROJECT/PACKAGE

if nothing else specified.

With getpac or bco, the branched package will come from one of

    openSUSE:Factory

(list of projects from oscrc:getpac_default_project) if nothing else is specfied on the command line.

    -c, --checkout
                Checkout branched package afterwards using "co -e
                -S"('osc bco' is a shorthand for this option)
    --nodevelproject
                do not follow a defined devel project (primary project
                where a package is developed)

build

Build a package on your local machine

You need to call the command inside a package directory, which should be a buildsystem checkout. (Local modifications are fine.)

The arguments REPOSITORY and ARCH can be taken from the first two columns of the 'osc repos' output. BUILD_DESCR is either a RPM spec file, or a Debian dsc file.

The command honours packagecachedir, build-root and build-uid settings in .oscrc, if present. You may want to set su-wrapper = 'sudo' in .oscrc, and configure sudo with option NOPASSWD for /usr/bin/build.

If neither --clean nor --noinit is given, build will reuse an existing build-root again, removing unneeded packages and add missing ones. This is usually the fastest option.

If the package doesn't exist on the server please use the --local-package option. If the project of the package doesn't exist on the server please use the --alternative-project <alternative-project> option: Example:

    osc build [OPTS] --alternative-project openSUSE:10.3 standard i586 BUILD_DESCR

usage:

    osc build [OPTS] REPOSITORY ARCH BUILD_DESCR
    osc build [OPTS] REPOSITORY ARCH
    osc build [OPTS] REPOSITORY (ARCH = hostarch, BUILD_DESCR is detected automatically)
    osc build [OPTS] ARCH (REPOSITORY = build_repository (config option), BUILD_DESCR is detected automatically)
    osc build [OPTS] BUILD_DESCR (REPOSITORY = build_repository (config option), ARCH = hostarch)
    osc build [OPTS] (REPOSITORY = build_repository (config option), ARCH = hostarch, BUILD_DESCR is detected automatically)

# Note: # Configuration can be overridden by envvars, e.g. # OSC_SU_WRAPPER overrides the setting of su-wrapper. # OSC_BUILD_ROOT overrides the setting of build-root. # OSC_PACKAGECACHEDIR overrides the setting of packagecachedir.

Options:

buildconfig

Shows the build config

Shows the build configuration which is used in building a package. This command is mostly used internally by the 'build' command.

The returned data is the project-wide build configuration in a format which is directly readable by the build script. It contains RPM macros and BuildRequires expansions, for example.

The argument REPOSITORY an be taken from the first column of the 'osc repos' output.

usage:

    osc buildconfig REPOSITORY                      (in pkg or prj dir)
    osc buildconfig PROJECT REPOSITORY

buildhistory (buildhist)

Shows the build history of a package

The arguments REPOSITORY and ARCH can be taken from the first two columns of the 'osc repos' output.

usage:

   osc buildhist REPOSITORY ARCHITECTURE
   osc buildhist PROJECT PACKAGE REPOSITORY ARCHITECTURE

Options:

    -h, --help  show this help message and exit
    --csv       generate output in CSV (separated by |)

buildinfo

Shows the build info

Shows the build "info" which is used in building a package. This command is mostly used internally by the 'build' subcommand. It needs to be called from within a package directory.

The BUILD_DESCR argument is optional. BUILD_DESCR is a local RPM specfile or Debian "dsc" file. If specified, it is sent to the server, and the buildinfo will be based on it. If the argument is not supplied, the buildinfo is derived from the specfile which is currently on the source repository server.

The returned data is XML and contains a list of the packages used in building, their source, and the expanded BuildRequires.

The arguments REPOSITORY and ARCH are optional. They can be taken from the first two columns of the 'osc repos' output. If not specified, REPOSITORY defaults to the 'build_repositoy' config entry in your '.oscrc' and ARCH defaults to your host architecture.

usage:

    in a package working copy:
        osc buildinfo [OPTS] REPOSITORY ARCH BUILD_DESCR
        osc buildinfo [OPTS] REPOSITORY (ARCH = hostarch, BUILD_DESCR is detected automatically)
        osc buildinfo [OPTS] ARCH (REPOSITORY = build_repository (config option), BUILD_DESCR is detected automatically)
        osc buildinfo [OPTS] BUILD_DESCR (REPOSITORY = build_repository (config option), ARCH = hostarch)
        osc buildinfo [OPTS] (REPOSITORY = build_repository (config option), ARCH = hostarch, BUILD_DESCR is detected automatically)
        Note: if BUILD_DESCR does not exist locally the remote BUILD_DESCR is used
    osc buildinfo [OPTS] PROJECT PACKAGE REPOSITORY ARCH [BUILD_DESCR]

Options:

    -h, --help  show this help message and exit
    -p DIR, --prefer-pkgs=DIR
                Prefer packages from this directory when installing
                the build-root
    -x PAC, --extra-pkgs=PAC
                Add this package when computing the buildinfo
    -d, --debug
                verbose output of build dependencies

buildlog (bl, blt, buildlogtail)

Shows the build log of a package

Shows the log file of the build of a package. Can be used to follow the log while it is being written. Needs to be called from within a package directory.

When called as buildlogtail (or blt) it just shows the end of the logfile. This is useful to see just a build failure reasons.

The arguments REPOSITORY and ARCH are the first two columns in the 'osc results' output. If the buildlog url is used buildlog command has the same behavior as remotebuildlog.

Usage:

    osc buildlog [ARGS...]

[REPOSITORY ARCH | BUILDLOGURL] Options:

    -h, --help  show this help message and exit
    -s, --strip-time

Create request to change the devel package definition.

[See http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_Collaboration for information on this topic.]

See the "request" command for showing and modifing existing requests.

osc changedevelrequest PROJECT PACKAGE DEVEL_PROJECT [DEVEL_PACKAGE]

checkout (co)

Check out content from the repository

Check out content from the repository server, creating a local working copy.

When checking out a single package, the option --revision can be used to specify a revision of the package to be checked out.

When a package is a source link, then it will be checked out in expanded form. If --unexpand-link option is used, the checkout will instead produce the raw _link file plus patches.

usage:

    osc co PROJECT [PACKAGE] [FILE]
       osc co PROJECT                    # entire project
       osc co PROJECT PACKAGE            # a package
       osc co PROJECT PACKAGE FILE       # single file -> to current dir
    while inside a project directory:
       osc co PACKAGE                    # check out PACKAGE from project
    with the result of rpm -q --qf '%{DISTURL}\n' PACKAGE

createrequest (creq)

create multiple requests with a single command

usage:

    osc creq [OPTIONS] [
        -a submit SOURCEPRJ SOURCEPKG DESTPRJ [DESTPKG]
        -a delete PROJECT [PACKAGE]
        -a change_devel PROJECT PACKAGE DEVEL_PROJECT [DEVEL_PACKAGE]

        ]
    Option -m works for all types of request, the rest work only for submit.

example:

    osc creq -a submit -a delete home:someone:branches:openSUSE:Tools -a change_devel openSUSE:Tools osc home:someone:branches:openSUSE:Tools -m ok
    This will submit all modified packages under current directory, delete project home:someone:branches:openSUSE:Tools and change the devel project to home:someone:branches:openSUSE:Tools for package osc in project openSUSE:Tools.

Options:

    -h, --help  show this help message and exit
    --yes       proceed without asking.
    --no-update
                never touch source package on accept (will break
                source links)
    --no-cleanup
                never remove source package on accept, but update its
                content
    --cleanup   remove package if submission gets accepted (default
                for home:<id>:branch projects)
    --nodevelproject
                do not follow a defined devel project (primary project
                where a package is developed)
    -s SUPERSEDE, --supersede=SUPERSEDE
                Superseding another request by this one

                submit/delete/change_devel/add_role/set_bugowner

delete (del, remove, rm)

Mark files or package directories to be deleted upon the next 'checkin'

usage:

    cd .../PROJECT/PACKAGE
    osc delete FILE [...]
    cd .../PROJECT
    osc delete PACKAGE [...]

This command works on check out copies. Use "rdelete" for working on server side only. This is needed for removing the entire project.

As a safety measure, projects must be empty (i.e., you need to delete all packages first).

If you are sure that you want to remove a package and all its files use '--force' switch. Sometimes this also works without --force.

Options:

    -h, --help  show this help message and exit
    -f, --force
                forces removal of entire package and its files

deleterequest (deletereq, dr, dropreq, droprequest)

Options:

    -h, --help  show this help message and exit
    --accept-in-hours=TEXT
                specify message time when request shall get accepted
                automatically. Only works with write permissions in
                target.

                specify message TEXT
    -m TEXT, --message=TEXT
                specify message TEXT

dependson (whatdependson)

Show the build dependencies

The command dependson and whatdependson can be used to find out what will be triggered when a certain package changes. This is no guarantee, since the new build might have changed dependencies.

dependson shows the build dependencies inside of a project, valid for a given repository and architecture. NOTE: to see all binary packages, which can trigger a build you need to

      refer the buildinfo, since this command shows only the dependencies
      inside of a project.

The arguments REPOSITORY and ARCH can be taken from the first two columns of the 'osc repos' output.

usage in package or project directory:

    osc dependson REPOSITORY ARCH
    osc whatdependson REPOSITORY ARCH

usage:

    osc dependson PROJECT [PACKAGE] REPOSITORY ARCH
    osc whatdependson PROJECT [PACKAGE] REPOSITORY ARCH

                against the revision (rev1) on the server. If rev1 and
                rev2 are specified it will compare rev1 against rev2
                (NOTE: changes in your working copy are ignored in
                this case)
    -c rev, --change=rev
                the change made by revision rev (like -r rev-1:rev).If
                rev is negative this is like -r rev:rev-1.

This command shows the available distributions. For active distributions it shows the name, project and name of the repository and a suggested default repository name.

usage:

    osc distributions

getbinaries

A new package dir will be created inside the project dir (if no project is specified and the current working dir is a project dir the package will be created in this project). If the package does not exist on the server it will be created too otherwise the meta data of the existing package will be updated (<title /> and <description />). The src.rpm will be extracted into the package dir. The files won't be committed unless you explicitly pass the --commit switch.

SRPM is the path of the src.rpm in the local filesystem, or an URL.

Usage:

    osc importsrcpkg SRPM

Usage:

    osc info [ARGS...]

init

Initialize a directory as working copy

Initialize an existing directory to be a working copy of an (already existing) buildservice project/package.

(This is the same as checking out a package and then copying sources into the directory. It does NOT create a new package. To create a package, use 'osc meta pkg ... ...')

You wouldn't normally use this command.

To get a working copy of a package (e.g. for building it or working on it, you would normally use the checkout command. Use "osc help checkout" to get help for it.

usage:

    osc init PRJ
    osc init PRJ PAC

linkpac

"Link" a package to another package

A linked package is a clone of another package, but plus local modifications. It can be cross-project.

The DESTPAC name is optional; the source packages' name will be used if DESTPAC is omitted.

Afterwards, you will want to 'checkout DESTPRJ DESTPAC'.

To add a patch, add the patch as file and add it to the _link file. You can also specify text which will be inserted at the top of the spec file.

See the examples in the _link file.

NOTE: In case you want to fix or update another package, you should use the 'branch'

      command. A branch has correct repositories (and a link) setup up by default and
      will be cleaned up automatically after it was submitted back.

usage:

    osc linkpac SOURCEPRJ SOURCEPAC DESTPRJ [DESTPAC]

Options:

    -h, --help  show this help message and exit

meta

Show meta information, or edit it

Show or edit build service metadata of type <prj|pkg|prjconf|user|pattern>.

This command displays metadata on buildservice objects like projects, packages, or users. The type of metadata is specified by the word after "meta", like e.g. "meta prj".

prj denotes metadata of a buildservice project. prjconf denotes the (build) configuration of a project. pkg denotes metadata of a buildservice package. user denotes the metadata of a user. pattern denotes installation patterns defined for a project.

To list patterns, use 'osc meta pattern PRJ'. An additional argument will be the pattern file to view or edit.

With the --edit switch, the metadata can be edited. Per default, osc opens the program specified by the environmental variable EDITOR with a temporary file. Alternatively, content to be saved can be supplied via the --file switch. If the argument is '-', input is taken from stdin: osc meta prjconf home:user | sed ... | osc meta prjconf home:user -F -

When trying to edit a non-existing resource, it is created implicitly.

Examples:

    osc meta prj PRJ
    osc meta pkg PRJ PKG
    osc meta pkg PRJ PKG -e
    osc meta attribute PRJ [PKG [SUBPACKAGE]] [--attribute ATTRIBUTE] [--create|--delete|--set [value_list]]

pull

merge the changes of the link target into your working copy.

rdelete

Delete a project or packages on the server.

As a safety measure, project must be empty (i.e., you need to delete all packages first). Also, packages must have no requests pending (i.e., you need to accept/revoke such requests first). If you are sure that you want to remove this project and all its packages use '--recursive' switch. It may still not work because other depends on it. If you want to ignore this as well use '--force' switch.

usage:

   osc rdelete [-r] [-f] PROJECT [PACKAGE]

Options:

    -h, --help  show this help message and exit
    -m TEXT, --message=TEXT
                specify log message TEXT

usage:

    osc rdiff OLDPRJ OLDPAC NEWPRJ [NEWPAC]
    osc rdiff PROJECT PACKAGE

Options:

    -h, --help  show this help message and exit
    -u, --unexpand
                diff unexpanded version if sources are linked
    --missingok

                does not exist on the server
    -c rev, --change=rev
                the change made by revision rev (like -r rev-1:rev).
                If rev is negative this is like -r rev:rev-1.
    -p, --plain
                output the diff in plain (not unified) diff format
    -r N[:M], --revision=N[:M]

                package to compare against (deprecated, use 3 argument
                form)
    --oldprj=OLDPRJ
                project to compare against (deprecated, use 3 argument
                form)

rebuild (rebuildpac)

Trigger package rebuilds

Note that it is normally NOT needed to kick off rebuilds like this, because they principally happen in a fully automatic way, triggered by source check-ins. In particular, the order in which packages are built is handled by the build service.

The arguments REPOSITORY and ARCH can be taken from the first two columns of the 'osc repos' output.

usage:

    osc rebuild [PROJECT [PACKAGE [REPOSITORY [ARCH]]]]

Options:

    -h, --help  show this help message and exit
    --all       Rebuild all packages of entire project
    -f, --failed

request (review, rq)

Show or modify requests and reviews

[See http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_Collaboration for information on this topic.]

The 'request' command has the following sub commands:

"log" will show the history of the given ID

"show" will show the request itself, and generate a diff for review, if used with the --diff option. The keyword show can be omitted if the ID is numeric.

"decline" will change the request state to "declined"

"reopen" will set the request back to new or review.

"setincident" will direct "maintenance" requests into specific incidents

"supersede" will supersede one request with another existing one.

"revoke" will set the request state to "revoked"

"accept" will change the request state to "accepted" and will trigger the actual submit process. That would normally be a server-side copy of the source package to the target package.

"checkout" will checkout the request's source package ("submit" requests only).

"priorize" change the prioritity of a request to either "critical", "important", "moderate" or "low"

The 'review' command has the following sub commands:

signkey

Manage Project Signing Key

osc signkey [--create|--delete|--extend] <PROJECT> osc signkey [--notraverse] <PROJECT>

This command is for managing gpg keys. It shows the public key by default. There is no way to download or upload the private part of a key by design.

However you can create a new own key. You may want to consider to sign the public key with your own existing key.

If a project has no key, the key from upper level project will be used (eg. when dropping "KDE:KDE4:Community" key, the one from "KDE:KDE4" will be used).

WARNING: THE OLD KEY WILL NOT BE RESTORABLE WHEN USING DELETE OR CREATE

Usage:

    osc signkey [ARGS...]

Options:

    -h, --help  show this help message and exit
    --sslcert   fetch SSL certificate instead of GPG key

    --delete    delete the gpg signing key in this project

  - source change (eg. on updating sources)
  - meta change (packages which are used for building have changed)
  - rebuild count sync (In case that it is configured to sync release numbers)
