# mkhint
Manage hint files for slackrepo scripts. Updates version strings and download checksums, or creates new hint files from repository .info files.
## Installation
### Script
```bash
sudo cp mkhint /usr/local/bin/mkhint
```
### Bash Completion
```bash
sudo cp mkhint.bash-completion /etc/bash-completion.d/mkhint
```
### Configuration
Edit the paths at the top of mkhint to match your setup (lines 16–17):
```bash
REPO_DIR="/var/lib/sbopkg/SBo-danix" # Repository containing .info files
HINT_DIR="/tmp/hintdir" # Directory where .hint files are stored
```
## Usage
### Update an existing hint file
Updates the package version, downloads the archive, and recalculates the MD5 checksums:
```bash
mkhintfile --version 2.0.1 --hintfile mypackage
```
This replaces the old version with 2.0.1 in mypackage.hint and re-downloads the URLs from DOWNLOAD and DOWNLOAD_x86_64 to update MD5SUM and MD5SUM_x86_64.
### Create a new hint file from .info
Generates a new hint file from the corresponding repository .info file:
```bash
mkhintfile --version 1.2.3 --new mypackage
```
The .info file is copied as a template, unwanted variables (PRGNAM, HOMEPAGE, MAINTAINER, EMAIL) are removed, and ARCH is set to x86_64.
### Create an empty hint file
Creates a fresh hint file with empty variables:
```bash
mkhintfile --new mypackage
```
### List hint files
```bash
mkhintfile --list
```
### Help
```bash
mkhintfile --help
```
## Exit Codes
- 0 - Success
- 1 - Invalid arguments
- 2 - File not found
- 3 - File already exists
- 4 - wget not available
## Hint File Variables
- VERSION - Package version
- ARCH - Architecture
- DOWNLOAD - Download URL (generic/32-bit)
- MD5SUM - MD5 checksum of the generic archive
- DOWNLOAD_x86_64 - Download URL (x86_64 specific)
- MD5SUM_x86_64 - MD5 checksum of the x86_64 archive
## Notes
- Old versions of hint files are backed up with a .bak extension before being modified.
- If a download URL is set to UNSUPPORTED or UNTESTED, the link is skipped during update.
- Bash completion for -f/--hintfile and -n/--new autocompletes package names from their respective directories.
