<file>
Describing files
The <file> tag describes a file in a
directory in the package sources.
File tags may only occur as children of
<dir>
tags.
File Tasks can be used to modify files at package time or at installation.
Attributes
| Attribute name | Описание |
|---|---|
name |
Name of the file in the sources |
role |
Type of the file. See roles. |
| Attribute name | Описание |
|---|---|
baseinstalldir |
Relative location where all files and subdirectories will be installed |
md5sum |
MD5 hash about file contents.This is automatically generated when executing pear package, so you should never set it manually. |
Previous optional attributes (
package.xmlv1)<platform>and<install-as>have been replaced by the release tags.Specifically,
<install>is used to specify<install-as>, and the<ignore>tag can be used in conjunction with<installconditions>to exclude packages from being installed on particular platforms.
Roles
The <role> attribute in the
<file> tag defines what type the file has and in
which location it should be installed.
