Alpine Linux 的“--update add”命令的解释

Question

我正在尝试了解 Dockerfile https://hub.docker.com/r/rdsubhas/tor-privoxy-alpine/~/dockerfile/，其中包含一个 RUN 执行程序

apk --update add privoxy tor@testing runit@testing

我想检查一下我对 apk 命令的使用方式的理解，所以我尝试在 Alpine 环境中打开一个终端，如下所示：

docker run -it --rm alpine:latest /bin/ash

之后我只是运行apk看看它的用法：

/ # apk
apk-tools 2.6.8, compiled for x86_64.

usage: apk COMMAND [-h|--help] [-p|--root DIR] [-X|--repository REPO]
           [-q|--quiet] [-v|--verbose] [-i|--interactive] [-V|--version]

           [--no-progress] [--purge] [--allow-untrusted] [--wait TIME]
           [--keys-dir KEYSDIR] [--repositories-file REPOFILE] [--no-network]
           [--no-cache] [--arch ARCH] [--print-arch] [ARGS]...

The following commands are available:
  add       Add PACKAGEs to 'world' and install (or upgrade) them, while
            ensuring that all dependencies are met
  del       Remove PACKAGEs from 'world' and uninstall them

  index     Create repository index file from FILEs
  fetch     Download PACKAGEs from global repositories to a local directory
  audit     Audit the directories for changes
  verify    Verify package integrity and signature

  -i, --interactive       Ask confirmation for certain operations
  -V, --version           Print program version and exit
  -f, --force             Do what was asked even if it looks dangerous
  -U, --update-cache      Update the repository cache
  --progress              Show a progress bar
  --progress-fd FD        Write progress to fd
  --no-progress           Disable progress bar even for TTYs
  --purge                 Delete also modified configuration files (pkg
                          removal) and uninstalled packages from cache (cache
                          clean)
  --allow-untrusted       Install packages with untrusted signature or no
                          signature
  --wait TIME             Wait for TIME seconds to get an exclusive repository
                          lock before failing

  --arch ARCH             Use architecture with --root
  --print-arch            Print default arch and exit

This apk has coffee making abilities.

问题是，我在本文档中没有看到 --update 选项（只有 --update-cache）。

我怀疑 apk --update add [package] 只是 shorthand for apk update 然后是 apk add [package]。谁能证实这一点？

Answer 1

简而言之：

To get the latest list of available packages, use the update command.

它类似于您在 apt-get install my_package 之前所做的 Debian apt-get update。

Update the Package list

Remote repositories change as packages are added and upgraded. To get the latest list of available packages, use the update command. The command downloads the APKINDEX.tar.gz from each repository and stores it in the local cache, typically /var/cache/apk/, /var/lib/apk/ or /etc/apk/cache/.

apk update

Tip: If using remote repositories, it is a good idea to do an update just before doing an add or upgrade command. That way you know you are using the latest software available.

Answer 2

见https://github.com/gliderlabs/docker-alpine/pull/503

apk --update flag is really --update-cache.

Apk uses getopt_long (3), https://github.com/alpinelinux/apk-tools/blob/v2.10.3/src/apk.c#L574

So, --update flag is only abbreviated from --update-cache by getopt_long.

Long option names may be abbreviated if the abbreviation is unique or is an exact match for some defined option.
