Partition Manager (pmt)

Work continues on the renovated pmt! You can check it out now :) ShawkTeam/pmt-renovated

This binary, written with C++, is for managing (partition) table, writing/reading, formatting and getting size on Android partitions.

Usage:  pmt [OPTIONS] start-parted [DEVICE]...
  or:   pmt [OPTIONS] backup PARTITION [OUTPUT] [OPTIONS]...
  or:   pmt [OPTIONS] flash PARTITION FILE [OPTIONS]...
  or:   pmt [OPTIONS] format PARTITION FILE_SYSTEM[ext/2/3/4] [OPTIONS]...
  or:   pmt [OPTIONS] partition-size PARTITION [OPTIONS]...

Options:
   -l, --logical     It is meant to determine whether the target partition is logical.
   -P, --search-path It is meant to specify a custom partition search path. Only normal partitions (default: /dev/block/by-name).
   -p, --list        List partitions.
   -s, --silent      Information and warning messages are silenced in normal work.
   -f, --force       Force mode. Some things are ignored.
   -V, --verbose     Verbose mode. Print detailed informations etc.
   -S, --set-lang    Set current language.
   -U, --view-langs  See supported languages.
   -v, --version     See version.
       --help        See this help message.

partition-size flags:
       --only-size   Only the size is displayed, the partition name etc is not displayed.
       --as-byte     Display size as byte.
       --as-kilobyte Display size as kilobyte.
       --as-megabyte Display size as megabyte.
       --as-gigabyte Display size as gigabyte.

Examples:
   pmt backup boot_a -P /dev/block/platform/bootdevice/by-name
   pmt flash boot_a /sdcard/twrp/boot.img -c /dev/block/platform/bootdevice/by-name
   pmt format system_a ext4 --logical
   pmt -P /dev/block/platform/bootdevice/by-name --list
   pmt partition-size boot --as-byte
   pmt partition-size system --only-size --as-gigabyte --logical

How is it built?

Make or Android NDK is required to build.

Build with NDK

• Download Android NDK and extract the NDK package.
• Clone this repository. And get access to it.

git clone https://github.com/ShawkTeam/pmt -b 3.0.2
cd pmt

• Set the NDK working directory variable.

# Required by Android NDK
export NDK_PROJECT_PATH="${PWD}"

• Go to the NDK directory and start the build

# Required for creating clang version information and directory access
export NDK_ROOT_DIR="${PWD}"
cd "${NDK_PROJECT_PATH}" \
&& bash build/bash/gen-header \
&& cd "${NDK_ROOT_DIR}"

# Start build
./ndk-build

• The output files will be inside the pmt folder. Binaries are available in two architectures within the libs folder. arm64-v8a (64-bit) and armeabi-v7a (32-bit).

If you want to change something, take a look at the configuration. You can change him. it is located in the build/config folder. His name is env.mk. I gave the information in the file. You can ask more.
