* parttype: add parttype class and functionsJose M. Guisado2022-12-151-0/+86
Parttype is a container for partition types in libfdisk. In python-libfdisk, the only way to create parttype instances is using the corresponding label-specific function: get_parttype_from_{code,string} This function wraps libfdisk's label_get_parttype_from_code (lookup DOS label parttype by hex code) and label_get_parttype_from_string (lookup GPT parttype by type uuid) For example, to get the parttype instance of 'EFI System' partition type of a GPT label, with type uuid 'c12a7328-f81f-11d2-ba4b-00a0c93ec93b': >>> import fdisk >>> cxt = fdisk.Context('./disk.bin', readonly=False) >>> cxt.create_disklabel('gpt') >>> efitype = cxt.label.get_parttype_from_string("c12a7328-f81f-11d2-ba4b-00a0c93ec93b") >>> efitype <libfdisk.PartType object at 0x7f503e4a5270, name=EFI System> See: https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/v2.34/libfdisk-docs/libfdisk-Partition-types.html https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/v2.34/libfdisk-docs/libfdisk-Label.html#fdisk-label-get-parttype-from-code https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/v2.34/libfdisk-docs/libfdisk-Label.html#fdisk-label-get-parttype-from-string
