Alpkit

This project provides a Rust library and CLI tool for reading the APK(v2) package format and APKBUILD.

apk-inspect

apk-inspect is a CLI tool built on the alpkit library for extracting metadata from Alpine’s APKv2 packages and APKBUILD files to JSON.

Installation

Using Pre-Built Binary

🐧 Linux: [x86_64] [aarch64] [armv7]
 macOS: [x86_64]

If your package manager doesn’t provide apk-inspect, you can use a pre-built binary.

1. Download and verify alpkit binary for your OS and CPU architecture (pick the right link from the list above), for example:

   curl -sSLO https://github.com/jirutka/alpkit/releases/download/v0.1.0-pre.2/apk-inspect.x86_64-linux
   curl -sSL https://github.com/jirutka/alpkit/releases/download/v0.1.0-pre.2/checksums.txt | sha256sum -c --ignore-missing

2. Install apk-inspect somewhere on your PATH, e.g. /usr/local/bin:

   install -D -m755 apk-inspect.* /usr/local/bin/apk-inspect

All Linux binaries are statically linked with musl libc, so they work on every Linux system (distro) regardless of used libc.
