Debian Repository Creator

Creating Debian Repository

• Install dependencies

  apt install dpkg-dev -y
  pip install pyinotify

• Create a configuration file config.json in project directory. Architectures and distributions can be changed.

  {
      "architectures": ["amd64", "armhf"],
      "dists": ["focal", "jammy"],
      "short_name": "repo_name",
      "description": "Your repository description",
      "email": "your_email@domain.com",
      "name": "Your Name",
      "port": 8645,
      "auth": "basic",
      "users": {
          "username1": "password1",
          "username2": "password2",
      }
  }

  Available options:

  • auth: basic, none

• Run repository script by specifying configuration file.

  ./debianrepo.py -c config.json

• Add your debian packages into pool folders based on architecture and distro.
