## NAME

embuildstats - report tool to see an overview of your Emdebian builds

## SYNOPSIS

**embuildstats** \[\[-a\] \| \[--arch\]\] \[\[-v\] \| \[--verbose\]\] \[\[-q\] \| \[--quiet\]\] \[\[-p\] \| \[--pager\]\]

**embuildstats** \[\[-a\] \| \[--arch\]\] \[\[-v\] \| \[--verbose\]\] \[\[-q\] \| \[--quiet\]\] {-c\|--csv}

**embuildstats** \[\[-a\] \| \[--arch\]\] \[\[-v\] \| \[--verbose\]\] \[\[-q\] \| \[--quiet\]\] {-x\|--xml}

**embuildstats** \[\[-a\] \| \[--arch\]\] \[\[-v\] \| \[--verbose\]\] \[\[-q\] \| \[--quiet\]\] {-w\|--html}

**embuildstats** \[\[-a\] \| \[--arch\]\] \[\[-v\] \| \[--verbose\]\] \[\[-q\] \| \[--quiet\]\] {-l\|--lintian}

## DESCRIPTION

embuildstats checks your Emdebian work directory for emdebianised packages, build logs, .changes files and upload data and prepares a simple report. By default, the report is piped through **sensible-pager** but CSV, XML and HTML formats are also available.

For more detailed information on a particular package, use **emsource** **--status** **PACKAGE**.

For information on which source packages have new versions available, use **emtargetcmp**.

Although error messages use the same colour output as other scripts in *emdebian-tools*, the report itself does not. If you would prefer alternative formats for the report, please ask (or submit a patch).

The report columns (or tags) describe (left to right):

 1\. Package name (source) in alphabetical order.

 2\. Total number of emdebian patch files (including *emdebian.\*.patch* and *debian-patch.\*.patch* files). (Until Debian has a working implementation for translation packages - tdebs - the majority of these patches are to create the locale packages.)

 3\. List of versions built with **emdebuild**. These versions are not necessarily successful builds, **embuildstats** just checks for the presence of a build log for this column. (See column 5.)

 4\. List of versions built *successfully* with **empdebuild** (within an Emdebian chroot). These versions should be suitable for automated building. **embuildstats** checks for the presence of a build log and a *.changes* file for the same Emdebian version.

 5\. List of versions with a *.changes* file for an Emdebian version. These are successful builds by **emdebuild**.

 6\. List of versions of *.changes* files uploaded and the timestamp of the upload.

## COMMANDS

**-p**\|**--pager**

Produce a tabular report and pipe to **sensible-pager**. Press ´**q**´ to quit. This is the default but the output cannot be redirected.

**-c**\|**--csv**

Produce a report of comma separated values to *STDOUT*. The number of patch files is not included. Redirect to a file if preferred.

```
"xdemineur"," 2.1.1-10em1"," 2.1.1-10em1"," 2.1.1-10em1 Tue Nov 27 20:13:58 2007"
```

**-x**\|**--xml**

Produce an XML report to *STDOUT*. The number of patch files is not included. Redirect to a file if preferred.

```
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<stats>
  <package>
   <name>package name</name>
   <build>emdebuild version list</build>
   <changes>empdebuild version list</changes>
   <uploads>uploaded version with date</name>
  </package>
  <package>
   <name>package name</name>
   <build>emdebuild version list</build>
   <changes>empdebuild version list</changes>
   <uploads>uploaded version with date</name>
  </package>
</stats>
```

**-w**\|**--html**

Produce a tabular report in HTML and print to *STDOUT*. Redirect to a file if preferred. (This is the same format as **--pager** wrapped in a basic HTML page and using *\<pre\>* for the table itself.

**-l**\|**--lintian**

Identify the latest .changes file for each build and use lintian to check the packages against Emdebian Policy.

*This can take a lot of time and work, even on a fast machine,* depending on how many packages you have built locally.

## OPTIONS

**-a**\|**--arch** *ARCH*

Produce a report for a specific architecture, overriding any **dpkg-cross** default.

**-v**\|**--verbose**

be verbose - currently only used if there are errors.

**-q**\|**--quiet**

be quiet (error messages only).

**-h**\|**--help**

print the usage message and exit.

- **--version**

  print the usage message and exit.

## FILES

**embuildstats** uses your Emdebian work directory as the base for all searches. **emdebuild** stats are expected to be derived from *$WORK/trunk/* and **empdebuild** stats are expected to be derived from the *$WORK/pbuilder/result/* hierarchy. $WORK itself is defined by debconf for *emdebian-tools* or *~/.apt-cross/emsource*.
