# GLOBAL OPTIONS
The following options are available for all commands.
*-f, --force*
Enable selected --force-\* options (deprecated).
*-i, --interactive*
Ask confirmation before performing certain operations.
Interactive mode can be made the default when running on a tty,
by creating /etc/apk/interactive as an empty file.
*-p, --root* <_ROOT_>
Manage file system at _ROOT_.
*-q, --quiet*
Print less information.
*-U, --update-cache*
Alias for '--cache-max-age 1'.
*-v, --verbose*
Print more information (can be specified twice).
*-V, --version*
Print program version and exit.
*-X, --repository* <_REPO_>
Specify additional package repository. This option can be specified
multiple times.
*--allow-untrusted*
Install packages with untrusted signature or no signature.
*--arch* _ARCH_
Temporarily override architecture, to be combined with --root.
*--cache-dir* _CACHEDIR_
Temporarily override the cache directory. _CACHEDIR_ is treated relative
to the _ROOT_.
*--cache-max-age* _AGE_
Maximum AGE (in minutes) for index in cache before it's refreshed.
*--force-binary-stdout*
Continue even if binary data will be printed to the terminal.
*--force-broken-world*
Continue even if _world_ cannot be satisfied.
*--force-non-repository*
Continue even if packages may be lost on reboot. This can happen when
running in run-from-tmpfs mode, and installing non-repository package.
*--force-old-apk*
Continue even if packages use unsupported features.
*--force-overwrite*
Overwrite files in other packages.
*--force-refresh*
Do not use cached files (local or from proxy).
*--keys-dir* _KEYSDIR_
Override directory of trusted keys. This is treated relative to _ROOT_.
*--no-cache*
Do not use any local cache path.
*--no-check-certificate*
Do not validate the HTTPS server certificates.
*--no-interactive*
Disable interactive mode.
*--no-network*
Do not use the network. The cache is still used when possible.
*--no-progress*
Disable progress bar even for TTYs.
*--print-arch*
Print default arch and exit.
*--progress*
Show progress.
*--progress-fd* _FD_
Write progress to the specified file descriptor.
*--purge*
Delete modified configuration files on package removal and uninstalled
packages from cache on cache clean.
*--repositories-file* _REPOFILE_
Override system repositories, see *apk-repositories*(8). Specifying this
option overrides the normal repositories file and repositories.d directory
processing. The given _REPOFILE_ is relative to the startup directory since
apk 2.12.0_rc2.
*--wait* _TIME_
Wait for TIME seconds to get an exclusive repository lock before
failing.
# COMMIT OPTIONS
The following options are available for all commands which commit the database.
*-s, --simulate*
Simulate the requested operation without making any changes.
*--clean-protected*
Do not create .apk-new files in configuration directories.
*--overlay-from-stdin*
Read list of overlay files from stdin. Normally this is used only during
initramfs when booting run-from-tmpfs installation.
*--no-scripts*
Do not execute any scripts. Useful for extracting a system image for
different architecture on alternative _ROOT_.
*--no-commit-hooks*
Skip pre/post hook scripts (but not other scripts).
*--initramfs-diskless-boot*
Used by initramfs when it's recreating root tmpfs. This enables selected
force options to minimize failure, and disables commit hooks, among
other features.
# NOTES
This apk has coffee making abilities.
