NAME

apk search - search for packages by name or description

SYNOPSIS

apk search [<options>...] pattern...

DESCRIPTION

apk search searches all repositories for packages matching at least one pattern. If no pattern is given, it lists all packages in the configured repositories (see apk-repositories(5)). A pattern matches if it is a case-insensitive substring of the package name.

OPTIONS

In addition to the global options (see apk(8)), and query options (see apk-query(8)) the following options are supported:

--all, -a

Print all matching package versions. By default, apk only shows the latest version.

--description, -d

Also search for pattern in the package description. By default, apk does not search package descriptions.

--exact, -e, -x

Match package names exactly.

--has-origin

Match by package origin. Shows all packages whose base package name matches pattern exactly. Implies --all and --exact.

--origin, -o

Print base package name.

--rdepends, -r

Print reverse dependencies (other packages which depend on the package).
