PKG-SHELL(8)		    System Manager's Manual		  PKG-SHELL(8)

NAME
       pkg shell -- interact with the pkg database

SYNOPSIS
       pkg shell

DESCRIPTION
       pkg shell is used to interact with the local or remote database through
       a  sqlite3  console.  Extreme care should be taken when using this com-
       mand.

       Do not rely on this command.   The  underlying  schema  is  subject  to
       change  on any release.	Use pkg-query(8), pkg-rquery(8), pkg-search(8)
       and pkg-set(8) instead for querying and modifying the database.	 These
       commands	are expected to	have a stable API, unlike the database schema.

ENVIRONMENT
       The  following environment variables affect the execution of pkg	shell.
       See pkg.conf(5) for further description.

       PKG_DBDIR

FILES
       See pkg.conf(5).
