repositor.io - Linux Repository Management

repositor.io is a tool to create and manage linux repositories. You can mirror online repositories so that you don't need to download the package every time you set up a new server. You can also secure your servers behind a firewall and disable outgoing http traffic.

With repositor.io it is easy to create custom repositories for your own packages. With the integration of a configuration management tool you can create consistant installations of your server.

CONFIGURATION

To configure repositor.io create a configuration file /etc/rex/repositorio.conf. RepositoryRoot = /srv/html/repo/

 TagStyle = TopDir

 # log4perl configuration file
 <Log4perl>
   config = /etc/rex/io/log4perl.conf
 </Log4perl>

 # create a mirror of the nightly rex repository
 # the files will be stored in
 # /srv/html/repo/head/rex-centos-6-x86-64/CentOS/6/rex/x86_64/
 <Repository rex-centos-6-x86-64>
   url   = http://nightly.rex.linux-files.org/CentOS/6/rex/x86_64/
   local = rex-centos-6-x86-64/CentOS/6/rex/x86_64/
   type  = Yum
 </Repository>

 # create a mirror of centos 6
 # and download the pxe boot files, too.
 <Repository centos-6-x86-64>
   url    = http://ftp.hosteurope.de/mirror/centos.org/6/os/x86_64/
   local  = centos-6-x86-64/CentOS/6/os/x86_64/
   type   = Yum
   images = true
 </Repository>

 # create a custom repository
 <Repository centos-6-x86-64-mixed>
   local = centos-6-x86-64-mixed/mixed/6/x86_64/
   type  = Yum
 </Repository>

 <Repository debian-wheezy-i386-main>
   url       = http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/
   local     = debian-wheezy-amd64-main/debian
   type      = Apt
   arch      = i386
   dist      = wheezy
   component = main
 </Repository>

If you want to sign your custom repositories you have to configure the gpg key to use. repositorio automatically exports the public key into the root of the repository, so it can be imported from the clients. If you don't specify the gpg password repositorio will ask you for the password.

An example for YUM repositories:

 <Repository centos-6-x86-64-mixed>
   local = centos-6-x86-64-mixed/mixed/6/x86_64/
   type  = Yum
   <gpg>
     key      = DA95F273
     password = test
   </gpg>
 </Repository>

An example for APT repositories:

 <Repository debian-7-x86-64-mixed>
   local     = debian-7-x86-64-mixed/debian
   type      = Apt
   arch      = amd64
   dist      = wheezy
   component = mixed
   <gpg>
     key      = DA95F273
     password = test
   </gpg>
 </Repository>

An example log4perl.conf file:

 log4perl.rootLogger                    = DEBUG, FileAppndr1

 log4perl.appender.FileAppndr1          = Log::Log4perl::Appender::File
 log4perl.appender.FileAppndr1.filename = /var/log/repositorio.log
 log4perl.appender.FileAppndr1.layout   = Log::Log4perl::Layout::SimpleLayout
