apk-fetch(8)
apk fetch - download packages from global repositories to a local directory
apk fetch [<options>...] packages...
apk fetch downloads the requested packages from the configured package repositories (see apk-repositories(5)) to a local directory. The current working directory is used as the destination directory unless -o is specified.
--built-after TIMESPEC Only fetch packages that have buildtime more recent than TIMESPEC. TIMESPEC can be a "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS" date, or seconds since epoch.
-l, --link Create hard links if possible.
-o, --output DIR Write the downloaded file(s) to DIR.
--pkgname-spec PKGNAME_SPEC Generate downloaded package names with PKGNAME_SPEC specification. Does not work with --prune unless the specification starts with ${name}[-_.].
-R, --recursive Fetch packages and all of their dependencies.
-s, --stdout Dump the .apk file(s) to stdout.
*Note*: this option is incompatible with *-o*, *-R*, and the global
*--progress* option.
-w, --world Download packages needed to satisfy world. Implies --recursive.
--simulate Simulate the requested operation without making any changes.
*Note*: this option is unreliable if needed indexes are not up-to-date
as this omits refresing or downloading of missing indexes.
--url Print the full URL for downloaded packages.
