nala-list(8)

nala-list8

List all packages or only packages based on the provided name

Usage

nala list [--options] PKGS ...

Overview

List all packages or only packages based on the provided name, glob or regex.

By default list will only glob.

If you start your query with r/, list will only regex.

Note: You may need to quote the pattern so the shell doesn't glob first

Examples:

Glob that will match nala and anything text after it:

sudo nala list "g/nala*"

A question mark in a glob will match any single character:

sudo nala list "g/na?a"

This would match nala or even nada

Regex works similar to globbing but is much more powerful.

For more information on Glob and Regex pattern matching:

man glob.7

man regex.7
