Need an example program that implements rpm -pql via import rpm

Steven W. Orr

I look everywhere but I couldn't find anything. Could someone please point me to
a small example program that does an import rpm, takes an rpm file as an
argument and gets the list of files contained in the file, the same as if I had
used the commandline

rpm -pql foo-1.23-4.i586.rpm

Much appreciated.

TIA

This is just a quick and dirty script, but how about:

import os
import rpm
import sys

I am at peace with the universe.

Thanks :)
ts = rpm.TransactionSet()
fd = os.open(sys.argv[1], os.O_RDONLY)
h = ts.hdrFromFdno(fd)
os.close(fd)

flist = h.fiFromHeader()
for file in flist:
print file[0]
