NAME

6       bpkg-pkg-unpack - unpack package archive
7

SYNOPSIS

9       bpkg pkg-unpack [options] (pkg[/ver] | --existing|-e dir)
10

DESCRIPTION

12       If  only  the  package  name  is specified, then the pkg-unpack command
13       unpacks the archive  for  the  previously  fetched  (bpkg-pkg-fetch(1))
14       package. The resulting package state is unpacked (bpkg-pkg-status(1)).
15
16       If  the  package version is also specified, then the (source) directory
17       from one of the directory-based repositories (bpkg-rep-add(1)) is  used
18       in  place,  without copying it into the configuration directory. Such a
19       package is called external.
20
21       If the --existing|-e option is used, then instead of the package  name,
22       pkg-unpack  expects  a  local path to an existing package directory. In
23       this case, bpkg will use the (source) directory in place, the  same  as
24       for  packages  from  directory-based  repositories.  Also,  unless  the
25       --purge|-p option is specified, bpkg will not attempt  to  remove  this
26       directory  when  the package is later purged with the bpkg-pkg-purge(1)
27       command. Such a package is also external.
28
29       If --existing|-e is specified together with  the  --replace|-r  option,
30       then  pkg-unpack  will replace the archive and/or source directory of a
31       package that is already in the unpacked or fetched state.
32
33       An external package triggers several changes in semantics compared to a
34       normal package: The package (output) directory inside the configuration
35       is called just pkg rather than pkg-ver. It is  also  assumed  that  the
36       packaging information (package manifest and lockfile) for such packages
37       may change without incrementing the package version (for example,  dur‐
38       ing  development).  To support this, bpkg implements the package itera‐
39       tion mechanism which may result in iteration numbers  to  be  shown  as
40       part  of the package version, for example, 1.2.3#1 (see Package Version
41       (#package-version)).
42

PKG-UNPACK OPTIONS

44       --existing|-e
45              Treat the argument as an existing package directory path  rather
46              than the package name to unpack.
47
48       --purge|-p
49              Remove  the  existing  package  directory  when  the  package is
50              purged.
51
52       --replace|-r
53              Replace the source directory if the package is already  unpacked
54              or fetched.  Can only be specified with an external package.
55
56       --directory|-d dir
57              Assume  configuration is in dir rather than in the current work‐
58              ing directory.
