Description:

rpmfile 2.1.0

rpmfile

Tools for inspecting RPM files in python. This module is modeled after the
tarfile module.
Install
$ python -m pip install -U rpmfile

If you want to use rpmfile with zstd compressed rpms, you'll need to install
the zstandard module.
zstd also requires that you are using Python >= 3.5
$ python -m pip install -U zstandard

Example
See the tests for more examples.
import rpmfile

with rpmfile.open('file.rpm') as rpm:

# Inspect the RPM headers
print(rpm.headers.keys())
print(rpm.headers.get('arch', 'noarch'))

# Extract a fileobject from the archive
fd = rpm.extractfile('./usr/bin/script')
print(fd.read())

for member in rpm.getmembers():
print(member)

Command line usage
You can use rpmfile via it's module invocation or via rpmfile command if
your PATH environment variable is configured correctly. Pass --help for all
options.
