Xfce-repocapp

repocapp - repository (C)lone (A)utogen (P)ull (P)urge (This also includes clean & installation scripts)

A collection of scripts to maintain local Xfce repositories.

The purpose of the scripts contained in the xfce-repocapp repository is to facilitate managing your local Xfce repositories in bulk. Cloning, running automake, installing, purging and updating tasks are performed in groups, organized by categories, according to the official Xfce repository structure (https://gitlab.xfce.org).

List of scripts

Menu scripts

repocapp.py - provides a rudimentary menu-driven option to run the scripts. This is entirely optional. All of these scripts can be run independently.

---

Individual action scripts

• clone_xfce.py - Clone Xfce repositories from https://gitlab.xfce.org
• build_xfce.py - Run autogen & make against local component repositories

N.B.: These scripts perform ABSOLUTELY NO CHECKS for missing system libraries or the order of component compilation. It is assumed that you know what you are doing. Use at your own risk. No guarantees.

For additional information on building Xfce see: https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/building

• pull_xfce.py - Update local component repositories with git pull
• purge_xfce.py - Delete local component repositories by category
• install_xfce.py - Install components locally or system-wide with sudo make install
• clean_xfce.py - Clean local component directories (make clean)

Running individual scripts

All of the *-xfce.py scripts take the argument -c and the name of the component group to be acted upon. The following names are used:

• apps
• bindings
• xfce
• panel-plugins
• thunar-plugins
• www
• all

For example:

• clone_xfce.py -c panel-plugins
• purge_xfce.py -c all

Running the script without an argument will, by default, act upon the apps components. This is the equivalent of running, for example, pull_xfce -c apps.
