Aptly Real-Live example

Install Repo

$ echo 'deb http://repo.aptly.info/ squeeze main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/aptly.list && wget -qO - https://www.aptly.info/pubkey.txt | sudo apt-key add -

Example to build a grml-repo with extras.

Install Repo

$ wget -qO- http://deb.foilo.de/repo-key.asc | sudo apt-key add --

$ echo 'deb http://deb.foilo.de/ ubuntu main ' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/foilo.lis

$ apt-get update

For Publishing

• first install gpg & create new key with gpg --gen-key

• Edit all your needed arch's to ~/.aptly.conf. Example:

        {
          "rootDir": "/var/www/aptly",
          "downloadConcurrency": 4,
          "architectures": ["amd64","armhf"],
          "dependencyFollowSuggests": false,
          "dependencyFollowRecommends": false,
          "dependencyFollowAllVariants": true,
          "dependencyFollowSource": false,
          "gpgDisableSign": false,
          "gpgDisableVerify": false,
          "downloadSourcePackages": false,
          "ppaDistributorID": "ubuntu",
          "ppaCodename": ""
        }
  

• Now make http config or use aptly serve to listen on port 8080 & serve your repo's

• Example lighttp config:

        $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/apt($|/)" {
                server.dir-listing = "enable"
                server.document-root = "/var/www/aptly/public/"
        }
  

Add local files

Create a a new repo with aptly repo create <testing> or use a mirror

        aptly repo add testing pac-4.5.4-all.deb

Add files from other repo

       aptly -dep-follow-all-variants=true  mirror create grml-testing http://deb.grml.org/ grml-testing 
       aptly mirror update grml-testing

• Now we copy grml-autoconfig from grml-testing to our repo

       aptly -dep-follow-all-variants=true repo import grml-testing testing grml-autoconfig
  

• Add package from ppa

        aptly -architectures="amd64"  mirror create scribes http://ppa.launchpad.net/mystilleef/scribes-daily/ubuntu quantal main        
  

• Create snapshot from mirror

        aptly snapshot create grml-snap from mirror grml-test
