amo

Run oma as D-Bus service.

amo is a project similar to PackageKit - it runs as a D-Bus/systemd service and serves as a backend to oma.

This project currently aids in accelerating oma functions and will serve as backend for aoska (application store for AOSC OS) down the line.

Features

• Cache for Package catalogues (Contents, Packages, etc.), enabling accelerated queries for package names, descriptions, contents, and transaction history, etc. in oma.
• Initiating metadata refresh and package installation/removal/upgrade via oma API.

Dependencies

To build amo, the following are needed:

• libapt-pkg (part of APT)
• LLVM and Clang
• Nettle (recommended) or OpenSSL
• Rustc and Cargo
• pkg-config or pkgconf

During runtime, D-Bus and systemd are required to launch it as a service.
