scap-as-rpm(8)						  System Administration Utilities					    scap-as-rpm(8)

NAME

       scap-as-rpm - manual page for scap-as-rpm

DESCRIPTION

       usage: scap-as-rpm [-h] [--pkg-name PKG_NAME] [--pkg-version PKG_VERSION]

	      [--pkg-release   PKG_RELEASE]   [--pkg-summary  PKG_SUMMARY]  [--pkg-license  PKG_LICENSE]  [--pkg-scap-location	PKG_SCAP_LOCATION]
	      [--rpm-destination RPM_DESTINATION] [--srpm-destination SRPM_DESTINATION] FILE [FILE ...]

       Takes given SCAP input(s) and makes an RPM package that contains them. The result  RPM  can  be	installed  using  #  yum  install  ./pack-
       age-name-1-1.rpm which will put the contents into /usr/share/xml/scap. No dependency on openscap or scapworkbench is enforced in the output
       package so you can use any SCAP-capable scanner to evaluate the content.

   positional arguments:
       FILE   List of files that should be put into the result package. These should be SCAP XML files but such requirement is not enforced.

   optional arguments:
       -h, --help
	      show this help message and exit

       --pkg-name PKG_NAME
	      Name of the RPM package, if none is provided the basename of the first SCAP input is used. Ex.: xyzsecurity-guide

       --pkg-summary PKG_SUMMARY
	      Optional short description of the package.

       --pkg-license PKG_LICENSE
	      Short name of the license that you want to publish the package under. Ex.: GPLv2+, BSD, ...

       --pkg-scap-location PKG_SCAP_LOCATION
	      Folder where SCAP files are supposed to be installed.  Each package will have its own folder inside this folder. RPM  variables  can
	      be used and will be expanded as usual. It is recommended to keep the default settings.

       --rpm-destination RPM_DESTINATION
	      The folder (absolute or relative to CWD) where the result RPM shall be saved.

       --srpm-destination SRPM_DESTINATION
	      The folder (absolute or relative to CWD) where the result SRPM shall be saved.
