removed unused imports which made the code harder to read, and slightly but less efficient (Bitbake rev: 4367692a932ac135c5aa4f9f2a4e4f0150f76697) Signed-off-by: Frazer Clews <frazer.clews@codethink.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
The layerindexlib module is designed to permit programs to work directly with layer index information. (See layers.openembedded.org...)
The layerindexlib module includes a plugin interface that is used to extend the basic functionality. There are two primary plugins available: restapi and cooker.
The restapi plugin works with a web based REST Api compatible with the layerindex-web project, as well as the ability to store and retried a the information for one or more files on the disk.
The cooker plugin works by reading the information from the current build project and processing it as if it were a layer index.
TODO:
init.py: Implement local on-disk caching (using the rest api store/load) Implement layer index style query operations on a combined index
common.py: Stop network access if BB_NO_NETWORK or allowed hosts is restricted
cooker.py: Cooker - Implement recipe parsing
