synopkg command [OPTIONS]

synopkg is the package management utility for Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM), the operating system for Synology NAS devices. It provides command-line control over package installation, updates, and service management.
The tool wraps each package's start/stop scripts located at `/var/packages/<package>/scripts/start-stop-status`. It automatically handles dependency resolution when installing packages and integrates with DSM's Package Center.
