This article will explain in detail how to use the zypper command in Linux. The editor thinks it is very practical, so I share it for you as a reference. I hope you can get something after reading this article.

Zypper is an easy-to-use command line package manager that uses a package management library called libzypp. Zypper can manipulate software installation sources (such as Build Service or standard openSUSE installation sources), search for packages, install, remove, or update packages, and so on. It can be used as stand-alone software, in scripts, or by other software.

Examples of zypper command usage

i. Managing software packages with zypper

1. Installation package

Syntax: # zypper install example: install Mozilla firefox

[root@linuxprobe] # zypper install MozillaFirefoxLoading repository data...Reading installed packages...Resolving package dependencies...The following NEW packages are going to be installed: MozillaFirefox MozillaFirefox-branding-SLEDThe following packages are not supported by their vendor: MozillaFirefox MozillaFirefox-branding-SLED2 new packages to install.Overall download size: 964.0 KiB.

5. Look up the package

Syntax: # zypper search example: find all packages at the beginning of usb

[root@linuxprobe ~] # zypper search usb*Loading repository data...Reading installed packages...S | Name | Summary | Type--+-+-- -- + | usb_modeswitch | A mode switching tool for controlling multiple-device USB gear | package | usb_modeswitch-data | A mode switching tool for controlling multiple-device USB gear | package | usbip-devel | Headers and static libraries | packagei | usbutils | | Tools and libraries for USB devices | package |

6. View package details

Syntax: zypper info example: view usbutils information

[root@linuxprobe] # zypper info usbutilsLoading repository data...Reading installed packages...Information for package usbutils:Repository: LINUXPROBEName: usbutilsVersion: 0.73-38.19Arch: x86_64Vendor: SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Nuernberg, GermanySupport Level: unknownInstalled: YesStatus: up-to-dateInstalled Size: 461.0 KiBSummary: Tools and libraries for USB devicesDescription:This package contains a utility for inspecting devices connected to USBports.It requires kernel version 2.3.99-pre7 or newer, or the USB backportwhich was introduced in 2.2.18 (supporting the / proc/bus/usbinterface).

7. Make a patch

Check out all available patches: zypper patches

Install the specified patch: zypper patch

8. Lock the bag

Once the package is locked, it cannot be removed or upgraded. Here's how to lock it.

1) add the al option to lock the package file "usbutils". Al is the abbreviation of add lock.

[root@linuxprobe] # zypper al usbutilsSpecified lock has been successfully added.

\ 2) add the ll option to view all locked software packages. Ll is the abbreviation of List Locks.

[root@linuxprobe ~] # zypper ll# | Name | Type | Repository--+-1 | usbutils | package | (any)

9. Unlock the bag

Unlock usbutils with rl option. Rl is the abbreviation of remove lock.

[root@linuxprobe] # zypper rl usbutils1 lock has been successfully removed. [root@linuxprobe ~] # zypper llThere are no package locks defined.

ii. Managing Warehouse with zypper

10. Add libraries with zypper

Syntax: # zypper addrepo

[root@linuxprobe] # zypper addrepo-check-refresh-name "Mozilla-repo" http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/mozilla/SLE_11/ "Mozillarepo" Adding repository 'Mozilla-repo' [done] Repository' Mozilla-repo' successfully addedEnabled: YesAutorefresh: YesURI: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/mozilla/SLE_11/

11. Create a local library

We can use zypper to create a local library that contains all the rpm files from the local directory

Syntax: # zypper addrepo

Example: create a local directory called Linuxprobe_Repo that contains all rpm files

[root@linuxprobe ~] # zypper addrepo / var/stormgt/dsminst Linuxprobe_RepoAdding repository 'Linuxprobe_Repo' [done] Repository' Linuxprobe_Repo' successfully addedEnabled: YesAutorefresh: NoURI: dir:///var/stormgt/dsminst [root@linuxprobe ~] # zypper search-- repo Linuxprobe_RepoLoading repository data...Reading installed packages...S | Name | Summary | Type--+- -+-+-I | TIVsm-API | the API | packagei | TIVsm-API64 | the API | packagei | TIVsm-BA | the Backup Archive Client | | packagei | gskcrypt32 | IBM GSKit Cryptography Runtime | packagei | gskcrypt64 | IBM GSKit Cryptography Runtime | packagei | gskssl32 | IBM GSKit SSL Runtime With Acme Toolkit | packagei | gskssl64 | IBM GSKit SSL Runtime With Acme Toolkit | package |

Note: you can also add NFS or FTP paths through this command

twelve。 View the library

[root@linuxprobe ~] # zypper lr# | Alias | Name | Enabled | Refresh--+---+ -+-1 | Mozillarepo | Mozilla-repo | Yes | Yes2 | SUSE-Linux-Enterprise -Server-11-SP1 11.1.1-1.152 | SUSE-Linux-Enterprise-Server-11-SP1 11.1.1-1.152 | Yes | Yes

View the complete URI of repo:

[root@linuxprobe ~] # zypper lr-- uri# | Alias | Name | Enabled | Refresh | URI--+ +- -1 | Mozillarepo | Mozilla-repo | Yes | Yes | http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/mozilla/SLE_11/2 | SUSE-Linux-Enterprise-Server-11-SP1 11.1.1-1.152 | SUSE-Linux-Enterprise-Server-11-SP1 11.1.1- 1.152 | Yes | Yes | http://19.106.65.64/FUSELinux/600RC0

13. Search for packages in the library

Lists all packages for the specified library Mozillarepo

[root@linuxprobe ~] # zypper search-- repo MozillarepoLoading repository data...Reading installed packages...S | Name | Summary | Type--+-- -+-+-I | MozillaFirefox | MozillaFirefox Web Browser | | packagei | MozillaFirefox-branding-SLED | SLED branding of MozillaFirefox | package | MozillaFirefox-branding-openSUSE | openSUSE branding of MozillaFirefox | package | MozillaFirefox-branding-openSUSE | openSUSE branding of MozillaFirefox | srcpackage |

14. Library renaming

Rename the library with the renamerepo option

Example: change the name of the library Linuxprobe_Repo to MyLinuxRepo

[root@linuxprobe ~] # zypper renamerepo Linuxprobe_Repo MyLinuxRepoRepository 'Linuxprobe_Repo' renamed to' MyLinuxRepo'.

15. Delete Library

Use the removerepo option to remove the library

[root@linuxprobe] # zypper removerepo MyLinuxRepoRemoving repository 'MyLinuxRepo' [done] Repository' MyLinuxRepo has been removed.

16. Reserve storehouse

You can back up a series of library files with the export option

[root@linuxprobe] # zypper lr-- export / var/tmp/backup.repoRepositories have been successfully exported to / var/tmp/backup.repo.

17. Add a library from a backup file

[root@linuxprobe ~] # zypper addrepo / var/tmp/backup.rep

18. Disable / use libraries

Example: disable the Mozilla library with the-d argument of the modifyrepo option

[root@linuxprobe] # zypper modifyrepo-d MozillarepoRepository 'Mozillarepo' has been successfully disabled.

Example: use the modifyrepo option-e parameter to allow the use of Mozilla libraries

[root@linuxprobe] # zypper modifyrepo-e MozillarepoRepository 'Mozillarepo' has been successfully enabled.

19. Refresh the library

Example: refresh the Mozilla library

[root@linuxprobe] # zypper refresh MozillarepoRepository 'Mozilla-repo' is up to date.Specified repositories have been refreshed.
