# Ruby interface to apt-pkg

Goal of this project is to have a proper Ruby binding to APT like in

[Python](https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/python-apt).

Currently install, remove packages commands are **not** implemented.

## INSTALL

```

apt install build-essential ruby-dev libapt-pkg-dev (>= 1.0)

gem install apt-pkg

```

## USING

Basic usage:

``` ruby

require 'debian/apt_pkg'

# Initialize the configuration and system of apt

Debian::AptPkg.init

# Update the index files used by the cache

Debian::AptPkg::PkgCache.update

# List packages stored in the cache

Debian::AptPkg::PkgCache.packages

# List installed packages

Debian::AptPkg::PkgCache.packages.select { |pkg| pkg.is_installed }

```
