Linux – zypper adds a repository and enables refresh in one line

zypper adds a repository and enables refresh in one line… here is a solution to the problem.

zypper adds a repository and enables refresh in one line

When I add a repository using zypper:

zypper ar <url> name

Then I’m going to do it

zypper lr

Check the number of repositories and enable auto-refresh:

zypper mr -r 2

Can’t I do all of this in one line?

Solution

After searching the internet for a while, I found the -f option:

zypper ar -f <url> name

This automatically enables automatic refresh. I wonder why auto-refresh is turned off by default!
