Repomaker is back! After a bit of work, Repomaker is back again. Below are some of the major updates Update fdroidserver to fdroidserver 2.3.2 Update Django to Django to 4.2 Integration of rclone to allow people deploy to multiple cloud services. Ability to share your repo on appiverse.io To test out the current version, check out the demo instance at https://repomakerdemo.fdroid.net Test it out and report errors you encounter. Self-host Repomaker For now, the quickest way to run it locally or on your own infrastructure is through docker. To do so, follow the steps below Install docker as described at Install Docker Engine | Docker Docs Follow the post-installation steps as described at Linux post-installation steps for Docker Engine | Docker Docs if on Linux Install docker compose as described at Overview of installing Docker Compose | Docker Docs Create a directory of your choice (e.g. repomaker ) to hold the docker-compose.yml and .env files. Move to the directory you created mkdir repomaker cd repomaker Download docker-compose.yml and .env by running the following commands: Get docker-compose.yml file wget -O docker-compose.yml https://gitlab.com/fdroid/repomaker/-/raw/master/docker/docker-compose.yml Get .env file wget -O .env https://gitlab.com/fdroid/repomaker/-/raw/master/docker/.env Populate the .env file with custom values .Below are the default environmental variables # Please enter your hostname here REPOMAKER_HOSTNAME=abc-repomaker-test.org # Here all repomaker related files (including the database) will be stored REPOMAKER_PATH=/var/lib/repomaker # The local port repomaker will listen on the host machine REPOMAKER_PORT=80 # Warning: Changing this later will change all repo locations in default storage REPOMAKER_SECRET_KEY= # You usually do not need to change this DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=repomaker.settings_docker # Uncomment to allow password-less connections to the database # https://djangoforprofessionals.com/postgresql/#postgresql #POSTGRES_HOST_AUTH_METHOD=trust # CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS is needed for Django 4 # To avoid CSRF verification failed. Request aborted error CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS="https://${REPOMAKER_HOSTNAME}" For a quick set-up, uncomment the line POSTGRES_HOST_AUTH_METHOD to be true in your .env file. If you are going to actually serve apps from it, read on how to secure postgres here: Chapter 3: PostgreSQL — Django for Professionals | LearnDjango.com The REPOMAKER_HOSTNAME variable can either be a domain name or the ip address of the machine running repomaker. The REPOMAKER_SECRET_KEY can be generated with the command echo "REPOMAKER_SECRET_KEY=$(cat /dev/urandom | tr -dc 'a-zA-Z0-9' | fold -w 64 | head -n 1)" .Please replace this in the .env file above. Start the containers by running the command below docker compose up -d Access the repomaker instance by going to the REPOMAKER_HOSTNAME you set in the .env above.
