NAME top

       dnf-transaction-json - DNF Stored Transaction JSON

       The stored transaction format is considered unstable and may
       change in an incompatible way at any time. It will work if the
       same version of dnf is used to store and replay (or between
       versions as long as it stays the same).

TOP-LEVEL OBJECT top

       version
              Type: string

              The version of the stored transaction format, in the form
              MAJOR.MINOR.

              MAJOR version denotes backwards incompatible changes (old
              dnf won't work with new transaction JSON).

              MINOR version denotes extending the format without
              breaking backwards compatibility (old dnf can work with
              new transaction JSON).

       rpms   Type: an array of rpm objects

              A list of RPM packages in the transaction.

              A list of groups in the transaction.
