Integrate fwupd #6
Description
I just found out a machine was 130 UEFI versions behind lol.
Integrating fwupdtool would be really useful if you dont want to use Discover/Software/Packagekit (also Discover couldnt update the firmware while CLI could)
fwupdtool get-updates && fwupdtool get-upgrades && fwupdtool update && fwupdtool upgrade && fwupdtool verify-update
should do the trick. But I have no idea what the differente between:
- fwupdtool and fwupdmgr
- install and upgrade
- get-updates, update, refresh, get-upgrades
are.
all arguments (same for both commands?):
activate esp-mount firmware-read get-report-metadata --no-safety-check smbios-dump
--allow-older esp-unmount firmware-sign get-topology --no-search switch-branch
--allow-reinstall export-hwids --force get-updates --plugins unbind-driver
attach --filter get-bios-setting get-upgrades --prepare update
bind-driver firmware-build get-details hwids refresh upgrade
build-firmware firmware-convert get-device-flags --ignore-checksum reinstall --verbose
--cleanup firmware-dump get-devices --ignore-vid-pid --save-backends verify-update
clear-history firmware-export get-firmware-types install security watch
detach firmware-extract get-history install-blob self-sign
--disable-ssl-strict firmware-parse get-plugins --method set-bios-setting
esp-list firmware-patch get-remotes monitor --show-all
NOTE: this tool needs root, unlike the other commands.
