Description Vijayalakshmi Candappa 2023-08-03 11:49:28 UTC

Description of problem:
Request for python API to query the nmstate package version from application

eg: rpm -qi nmstate
Name        : nmstate
Version     : 2.2.14
Release     : 0.20230728051556224558.pr2199.1.g38654c09.el9
Architecture: x86_64

RPM has this python API already:

import rpm

transaction_set = rpm.TransactionSet()
for header in transaction_set.dbMatch("name", "nmstate"):
    print(f"{header['name']}-{header['version']}-{header['release']}.{header['arch']}")


Also, providing access to the RPM DB does not seem to be in scope for Nmstate. What is your use case?
