package

Manages the packages at a node.

A package is a set of pipelines and contexts that can be added to a node as a single unit. Most packages are installed from a library, a public repository of packages, and contain a collection of thematically related pipelines and contexts.

Experimental

This operator is made available in preparation of the upcoming package management support of Tenzir. All interfaces are subject to change, and user-facing documentation of the package format is still in progress.

Synopsis

package add
package remove <package_id>

Description

The packages operator manages packages.

• The add command adds a new package on the node by running all pipelines and contexts defined in the package.

• The remove command removes an existing package.

To get a list of all successfully installed packages, use the show operator by running show packages.

<package_id>

The unique id of the package, as found in the package definition.
