R2PM

This repository is fetched by r2pm -U and provides the package database.

These packages are installed in user's home and can be plugins/scripts for radare2 or even utilities/programs related to r2.

See https://github.com/radareorg/radare2 for r2pm

$ r2pm -U
$ r2pm -ci r2frida

export R2PM_DBDIR="$PWD/db"
# export R2PM_GITDIR="/path/to/the/root/folder/of/the/local/repository"
# export R2PM_USRDIR="/path/to/usr/dir"

Use r2pm -bi r2frida to install a released binary without cloning or compiling sources. R2V selects the release and defaults to the installed radare2 version:

R2V=6.2.2 r2pm -bi r2frida

Packages provide R2PM_BINSTALL() for Unix shell commands and R2PM_BINSTALL_WINDOWS() for Windows commands. These hooks run without a source checkout, receive R2V, R2PM_OS (linux, darwin, windows, ...), R2PM_ARCH (x86, arm, ...), R2PM_BITS (32 or 64) and R2PM_TRIPLET (<os>-<arch>-<bits>, for example linux-x86-64), and install into the usual R2PM_PLUGDIR, R2PM_BINDIR and other r2pm directories. -g selects the system plugin directory and provides R2PM_SUDO on Unix.

Binary hooks must select the exact version and target, handle their own tools and runtime dependencies, respect R2PM_OFFLINE, and return nonzero if the binary is unavailable or installation fails. R2PM_NEEDS and R2PM_DEPS are source-build prerequisites and are skipped. There is no source fallback: r2pm reports the error and asks the user to re-run without -b.

The r2frida hooks extract Linux .deb, macOS .pkg, and Windows .zip release assets into the r2pm directories. Availability depends on the selected release; missing architectures or versions fail rather than using a different release.
