Functions

func AddRepo

func AddRepo(
	name string,
	keyURL string,
	keyHash string,
	repoURL string,
) error

AddRepo securely adds an APT repo with corresponding PGP key. NOTE After having called AddRepo, you MUST call Refresh for the new repo to be seen by a subsequent Install.

See: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianRepository/UseThirdParty

Example:

if err := apt.AddRepo(
	"docker",
	"https://download.docker.com/linux/debian",
	"https://download.docker.com/linux/debian/gpg",
	"1500c1f56fa9e26b9b8f42452a553675796ade0807cdce11975eb98170b3a570",
); err != nil {
	return err
}
if err := apt.Update(0 * time.Second); err != nil {
	return err
}

func DpkgInstall

func DpkgInstall(pkgPath string) error

func Install

func Install(pkg ...string) error

func Refresh

func Refresh(cacheValidity time.Duration) error

Refresh calls "apt-get update" each time it is called. This function is needed _only_ after having added a new APT repo with AddRepo. Note that the function to use for the majority of cases is instead Update.

func Remove

func Remove(pkg ...string) error

func Update

func Update(cacheValidity time.Duration) error

Update calls "apt-get update" only once in the lifetime of the installer, thus ensuring a faster operation. This is normally the function to use, but see also Refresh.
