Mender comprises a client running at the embedded device, as well as a server that manages deployments across many devices. . This repository contains the artifacts library, which is used by the Mender client, command line interface, server and for build integration with the Yocto Project. . The artifacts library makes it easy to programmatically work with a Mender artifact, which is a file that can be recognized by its .mender suffix. Mender artifacts can contain binaries, metadata, checksums, signatures and scripts that are used during a deployment. The artifact format acts as a wrapper, and uses the tar format to bundle several files into one. . In its simplest form, an artifact contains just a rootfs image, along with its checksum, id and device type compatibility. . The artifacts library might also be useful for other updaters or purposes. We are always happy to see other uses of it! . Mender logo Getting started To start using Mender, we recommend that you begin with the Getting started section in the Mender documentation (https://docs.mender.io/). Using the library You can use the parser and reader in go in the standard way: . import ( "github.com/mendersoftware/mender-artifact/parser" "github.com/mendersoftware/mender-artifact/reader" ) . For sample usage, please see the Mender client source code (https://github.com/mendersoftware/mender). Package: mender-artifact Architecture: any Built-Using: ${misc:Built-Using} Depends: ${misc:Depends}, ${shlibs:Depends}, dosfstools, e2fsprogs, parted, mtools Description: utility to generate .mender artifacts Mender Artifacts Library Mender is an open source over-the-air (OTA) software updater for embedded Linux devices. Mender comprises a client running at the embedded device, as well as a server that manages deployments across many devices. . This package contains the mender-artifact program which is used to generate the artifacts needed for mender OTA updates. The artifacts are generated from your existing ext4 rootfs image that you built for direct device deployments.
