LEARN ABOUT SUSE

scout

SCOUT(1)						    http://en.opensuse.org/Sco							  SCOUT(1)

NAME

       scout - A Package Scout

SYNOPSIS

       scout [global_options] {module} {search_term} [module_options]

OPTIONS

       The following options are available:

       global_options, module
	   The global options are handled by scout itself.

	   --format
	       Specify the default output format. Choices are table (default), xml, csv. It's a replacement of the older scoutcsv, scoutxml links.

	   --help
	       Print a brief help.

	   --version
	       Print version.
	   The respective module to search for. The following modules are available:

	   autoconf
	       Search for autoconf macros inside m4 files.

	   bin
	       Search for binaries contained in packages.

	   header
	       Search for C/C++/Obj-C/Obj-C++ headers

	   java
	       Search for Java classes inside packaged JAR files.

	   python
	       Search for Python modules.

	   webpin
	       Search in packages using the Webpin webservice.

       search_term
	   The term you are looking for.

       module_options
	   Additional module options. At the moment these are:

	   --listrepos
	       list all available repositories

	   --repos=REPO, -r REPO
	       select a repository to search (use a name from the --listrepos output)

DESCRIPTION

       Scout is a tool to look for uninstalled packages. For example, which binary does a package provide, which Java classes are available and
       which autoconf macros does a package contain.

       To search for your requested term, you need index data files which are a preconfigured SQLite 3 database. You have to install these in
       order to get your search request done. Use the Scout OBS data repository[1] to get additional index files. See the Wiki page about Scout[2]
       for more information.

EXAMPLE 1: SEARCH FOR EXECUTABLES
       For example, to search for a sdl-config executable, you need the bin module:

	   $ scout bin sdl-config

       You get the following output:

	    repository | binary     | path			  | package
	   ------------+------------+-----------------------------+-----------------
	    suse110    | sdl-config | /usr/bin			  | SDL-devel
	    suse110    | sdl-config | /usr/lib/baselibs-32bit/bin | SDL-devel-32bit

EXAMPLE 2: SEARCH FOR JAVA PACKAGES
       If you want to search for a Java package, use the following code:

	   $ scout java org.apache.xml.serialize.Serializer

       You get:

	    repository | package	  | jar 		| class
	   ------------+------------------+---------------------+------------------------------------------------
	    jpackage17 | jboss4-testsuite | xerces.jar		| org.apache.xml.serialize.Serializer
	    jpackage17 | jboss4-testsuite | xerces.jar		| org.apache.xml.serialize.SerializerFactory
	    jpackage17 | jboss4-testsuite | xerces.jar		| org.apache.xml.serialize.SerializerFactoryImpl
	    jpackage17 | xerces-j2	  | xerces-j2-2.9.0.jar | org.apache.xml.serialize.Serializer
	    jpackage17 | xerces-j2	  | xerces-j2-2.9.0.jar | org.apache.xml.serialize.SerializerFactory
	    jpackage17 | xerces-j2	  | xerces-j2-2.9.0.jar | org.apache.xml.serialize.SerializerFactoryImpl

EXAMPLE 3: SEARCH THROUGH WEBPIN
       If you want to use the openSUSE Search Webservice[3]--also known as "Webpin"--use the following line:

	   $ scout webpin docbook_5.xml

       You get:

	    package   | version | arch	 | repository URL								     | matched files
	   -----------+---------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------+------------------------
	    docbook_5 | 5.0	| noarch | http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse	     | /etc/xml/docbook_5.xml
	    docbook_5 | 5.0CR7	| noarch | http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/thomas-schraitle/openSUSE_Factory | /etc/xml/docbook_5.xml
	    docbook_5 | 5.0	| noarch | http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/XML/xml-factory			     | /etc/xml/docbook_5.xml

BASH COMPLETION

       If you like to complete your options automatically through Bash, insert the following lines into your ~/.bashrc or /etc/bash.bashrc:

	   if [ -f /etc/bash_completion.d/scout.sh ]; then
	     . /etc/bash_completion.d/scout.sh
	   fi
