archinstall.Profile

This class enables access to pre-programmed profiles. This is not to be confused with archinstall.Application which is for pre-programmed application profiles.

Profiles in general is a set or group of installation steps. Where as applications are a specific set of instructions for a very specific application.

An example would be the (currently fictional) profile called database. The profile database might contain the application profile postgresql. And that’s the difference between archinstall.Profile and archinstall.Application.

archinstall.Profile(installer, path, args=None)
