It is famous among Unix configuration people for replacing brittle sed and awk edits with lenses: bidirectional parsers that understand native config-file syntax. ### Projektgeschichte Augeas was written by David Lutterkort at Red Hat, according to the official AUTHORS file. The official README frames the project around a deliberately narrow problem: edit actual Linux configuration files in a controlled manner while preserving each file's native format rather than inventing a new cross-platform configuration abstraction. The Augeas web documentation includes a 2008 Ottawa Linux Symposium talk and Red Hat Summit material, and the GitHub repository was created in 2008. The project has continued as a long-lived system tool with a C API, augtool, language bindings, and a growing stock of lenses for common configuration formats. Release notes show the modern maintenance arc: 1.10 added augmatch and new API helpers in 2018, 1.13 added preview support and path-expression improvements in 2021, 1.14 added augprint and more lens coverage in 2022, and 1.14.1 in 2023 continued compatibility and lens updates. ### Adoptionsgeschichte Augeas spread through system packaging rather than app-store style distribution. The supplied package facts list Alpine, Homebrew, Debian, Fedora, MacPorts, Nix, Arch, Ubuntu, and openSUSE packages. Its adoption is also visible in the broad contributor list, which includes Linux distribution and configuration-management contributors, and in the stock-lens model that lets downstreams add support for local config formats. ### Wie es verwendet wird Users normally explore and modify the parsed tree with augtool, for example under /files/etc/hosts or /files/etc/grub.conf. Developers and configuration-management systems can call the C API or bindings, while lens authors write small schema-like descriptions to teach Augeas about new file formats. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren Augeas matters because it packages policy as parsers. Distros and operations tools need to edit config files without destroying comments, ordering, or local syntax; Augeas offers a stable library and CLI for that job. Its package value is in the lens corpus, ABI, bindings, and test fixtures as much as the augtool executable. ### Zeitleiste - 2008: Augeas material was presented at Ottawa Linux Symposium and Red Hat Summit; the GitHub repository was created. - 2016: GitHub release tags include 1.6.0 and 1.7.0. - 2018: Version 1.10 added augmatch and API additions. - 2021: Version 1.13 added preview support and path-expression improvements. - 2022: Version 1.14 added augprint and expanded lenses. - 2023: Version 1.14.1 shipped compatibility fixes and lens updates. ### Related projects - Augeas is related to configuration-management systems, language bindings around libaugeas, and other Hercules-team/system tooling. Its docs also expose libfa, the finite-automata library used by the project. ### Quellen - - - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger-Risiko:** grün / niedrig - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - Debian apt - augeas-doc - 1.14.1-1.1~deb13u1: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: augeas-doc from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Augeas lenses documentation | http://augeas.net/ - Debian apt - augeas-lenses - 1.14.1-1.1~deb13u1: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: augeas-lenses from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Set of lenses needed by libaugeas0 to parse config files | http://augeas.net/ - Debian apt - augeas-tools - 1.14.1-1.1~deb13u1: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: augeas-tools from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Augeas command line tools | http://augeas.net/ - Debian apt - libaugeas-dev - 1.14.1-1.1~deb13u1: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: libaugeas-dev from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Development files for writing applications based on libaugeas0 | http://augeas.net/ - Debian apt - libaugeas0 - 1.14.1-1.1~deb13u1: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: libaugeas0 from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Augeas configuration editing library and API | http://augeas.net/ - Nix - augeas: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/au/augeas/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - Ubuntu apt - augeas-doc - 1.14.1-1build2: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: augeas-doc from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Augeas lenses documentation | http://augeas.net/ - Ubuntu apt - augeas-lenses - 1.14.1-1build2: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: augeas-lenses from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Set of lenses needed by libaugeas0 to parse config files | http://augeas.net/ - Ubuntu apt - augeas-tools - 1.14.1-1build2: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: augeas-tools from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Augeas command line tools | http://augeas.net/ - Ubuntu apt - libaugeas-dev - 1.14.1-1build2: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: libaugeas-dev from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Development files for writing applications based on libaugeas0 | http://augeas.net/ - Ubuntu apt - libaugeas0 - 1.14.1-1build2: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: libaugeas0 from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Augeas configuration editing library and API | http://augeas.net/ - apk - augeas - 1.14.1-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: augeas from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | A configuration editing tool | http://augeas.net - apk - augeas-dev - 1.14.1-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: augeas-dev from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | A configuration editing tool (development files) | http://augeas.net - apk - augeas-doc - 1.14.1-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: augeas-doc from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | A configuration editing tool (documentation) | http://augeas.net - apk - augeas-libs - 1.14.1-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: augeas-libs from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | Libraries for augeas | http://augeas.net - apk - augeas-static - 1.14.1-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: augeas-static from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | Static libraries for Augeas | http://augeas.net ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
