NAME
kbuildsycoca5 - Rebuilds the KService desktop file system configuration cache
SYNOPSIS
-
kbuildsycoca5 [OPTIONS...]
DESCRIPTION
kbuildsycoca5
builds binary cache of the data stored in
.desktop
and
MIME
type
.xml
files that the KService framework uses to find plugins, applications and other services.
The KService library uses this database to efficiently provide the information requested of it.
Users do not normally need to run this application directly; KService will run it if necessary, when any of the files whose data is cached are changed.
OPTIONS
--global
-
Ignores any user-set files (in
XDG_DATA_HOME). This is currently only supported on
UNIX®
systems.
--noincremental
-
Rather than using the existing cache and only updating the information that has changed or been added, start with an empty cache. Ignored if
--global
is set.
--nosignal
-
Ordinarily,
kbuildsycoca5
sends a signal over
D-Bus
once the cache is updated to all the applications that use KService so that they are always working with the latest information. This option suppresses that behaviour.
--menutest
-
Test the generation of the application menu database. Does not actually build the cache.
--testmode
-
Use the QStandardPaths "test mode" to avoid interfering with user data. This is intended for use with unit tests.
--track menu-id
-
Track a menu ID for debugging.
--author
-
Show author information.
--license
-
Show license information.
-h, --help
-
Show a brief help text.
-v , --version
-
Show version information.
FILES
cachedir/ksycoca5_[lang]_[sha1-of-dirs]
-
The KService cache generated by
kbuildsycoca5. On
UNIX®
systems,
cachedir
is typically
XDG_CACHE_HOME.
