Script set for partial rpm/deb repositories mirroring with sanity check.

WARNING: This set of scripts is not designed to be used on 'live' repositories that are available to clients during synchronization It violates common synchronization order(packages first, metadata later) to provide partial mirroring capability. It means that repositories will be inconsistent during the update. Please use these scripts in conjunction with snapshots, on inactive repos, etc.

Only rsync mirrors are supported.

There are currently three mirroring scripts, all of them take path to config file as a first argument.

• rpm-mirror - script for mirroring RPM repositories
• deb-mirror - script for mirroring DEB repositories
• arch-mirror - script for mirroring Archlinux repositories

You can see some config examples at the config/ directory.

Clone this repo to preferable location, for example /opt/mirror-sync:

cd /opt
git clone https://github.com/selectel/mirror-sync.git mirror-sync

Create user for running mirroring scripts:

adduser --no-create-home --home /opt/mirror-sync mirror

Create repository storage, for example at /srv/www/mirror and give ownership to mirror user:

mkdir -p /srv/www/mirror/{debian,centos}
chown -R mirror:mirror /srv/www/mirror

Optionally create log directory:

mkdir -p /var/log/mirror-sync
chown -R mirror:mirror /var/log/mirror-sync

Create/edit configuration files for required repositories:

vim /opt/mirror-sync/config/centos.cfg
vim /opt/mirror-sync/config/debian.cfg

Now you can start synchronization of desired repository:

/opt/mirror-sync/rpm-mirror /opt/mirror-sync/config/centos.cfg

or:

/opt/mirror-sync/deb-mirror /opt/mirror-sync/config/debian.cfg
