# Go RPM Utils
[](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/sassoftware/go-rpmutils)
go-rpmutils is a library written in [go](http://golang.org) for parsing and extracting content from [RPMs](http://www.rpm.org).
## Overview
go-rpmutils provides a few interfaces for handling RPM packages. There is a highlevel `Rpm` struct that provides access to the RPM header and [CPIO](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cpio) payload. The CPIO payload can be extracted to a filesystem location via the `ExpandPayload` function or through a Reader interface, similar to the [tar implementation](https://golang.org/pkg/archive/tar/) in the go standard library.
## Example
```go
// Opening a RPM file
f, err := os.Open("foo.rpm")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
rpm, err := rpmutils.ReadRpm(f)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// Getting metadata
nevra, err := rpm.Header.GetNEVRA()
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(nevra)
provides, err := rpm.Header.GetStrings(rpmutils.PROVIDENAME)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
fmt.Println("Provides:")
for _, p := range provides {
fmt.Println(p)
}
// Extracting payload
if err := rpm.ExpandPayload("destdir"); err != nil {
panic(err)
}
```
