appjail-pkg — Manipulate packages within a jail

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

The appjail pkg utility is a wrapper of the pkg(8) command to manipulate packages within a jail.

all is used to run pkg(8) in all existing jails. If -e is specified, appjail pkg exits when pkg(8) returns a non-zero exit status. If -i is specified, the content of the file specified by this parameter is used as input for each call of pkg(8) instead of /dev/null. If you want to specify a pkg(8) parameter in args and it starts with a dash, you must use -- or appjail pkg will interpret it. target is any of the subcommands described below.

chroot is used to run pkg(8) in a chroot environment using the jail directory. The jail must be started if it is a thinjail; Otherwise, if it is a thickjail, it can be successfully executed both started and stopped.

jail is used to run pkg(8) in a given jail. If the -j parameter is specified, pkg(8) installed inside the jail is used instead of the one on the host.

jail accepts thin, thick and linux+debootstrap jails, while chroot accepts only thin and thick jails.
