DESCRIPTION
sw-collector extracts information about software package
installation, update or removal events from the apt history log and stores
the software events in an SQLite database. The retrieved history information
is then merged and made consistent with the actual list of installed
software packages obtained with dpkg-query.
OPTIONS
- -h, --help
- Prints usage information and a short summary of the available
commands.
- -v, --debug
level
- Set debug level, default: 2.
- -q, --quiet
- Disable debug output to stderr.
- -i, --installed
- Apply command to installed software packages, only.
- -r, --removed
- Apply command to removed software packages, only.
- -f, --full
- Generate ISO 19770-2:2015 SWID tags with full file information (possible
for installed software packages, only).
- -l, --list
- Lists all software packages stored in the collector database showing their
installation status.
- -u, --unregistered
- Lists all software packages residing in the local collector database but
for which no SWID tags exist yet in a central collector database reachable
via a REST interface.
- -g, --generate
- Generates ISO 19770-2:2015 SWID tags for all software packages residing in
the local collector database but for which no SWID tags exist in a central
collector database reachable via a REST interface.
- -m, --migrate
- Can be used to migrate collector database versions. Currently all
architecture suffixes are removed from dpkg package names.
- -C, --check
- Checks the integrity of the collector database against the actual list of
installed packages obtained with dpkg-query.
