Primary LanguageShellGNU General Public License v3.0GPL-3.0

standalone copr command

This Tool is not made or supported by the Fedora Project, but aims to reproduce the dnf copr functionalities for easily adding COPRs on Fedora Atomic.

It does everything rootless (unlike dnf copr) and only requires privilege escalation using pkexec for writing the repo file. Thus is also works without sudo.

Usage: copr [OPTION] [ARGUMENT]

Options:
  enable    Add COPR repository.
  remove    Remove COPR repository after backing it up.
  list      List all COPR repositories in your repo folder.
  search    Search for a COPR repository by name (in your Browser)
  disable   Keep a repo but disable it
  enable    Make a disabled repo active
  help      Display this help text.

Arguments:
  [ARGUMENT]  Name of the COPR repository (for search) or `author/repo` (for install and remove)

Examples:
  copr enable kdesig/kde-nightly-qt6
  copr remove kdesig/kde-nightly-qt6
  copr list
  copr search uutils

Install:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/trytomakeyouprivate/COPR-OSTree/main/copr -P ~/.local/bin/ &&\
chmod +x ~/.local/bin/copr

NOTE: COPR repos are version-independent, but there could be a chance they are unmaintained and thus dont support the current version. A solution like at least warning about it, or even removing them, could be useful. I did not test such a case on Fedora Atomic, and guess such a package would simply result in an rpm-ostree error.
