satlight

An implementation of rhn-satellite to provide all
xmlrpc and http repsonses required by an rpath rbuilder.

xmlrpc server code derived from: 
    http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/81549

To run:

python /root/fakesat/satellite.py \
    --pki-path /root/fakesat/certs \
    --capsule-path /root/fakesat/capsules/packages \
    --output /var/log/satellite.log \
    --pidfile /var/satellite/satellite.pid \
    --datadir /var/satellite/  


Each time you add new rpms to the directory, capsule-indexer must be
forced to refresh the index:

    psql -U postgres -p 5439 mint -c "delete from ci_rhn_channels"    
    
If new packages are added to the directory, restart the satellite to
clear the package cache. The first request for listAllPackages will
be slow, but all future requests will be instantaneous.


The capsules directory has a structure such as ...
    
    [root@devimage fakesat]# find capsules -type d
    capsules
    capsules/systems
    capsules/systems/RHN
    capsules/packages
    capsules/packages/rhel-x86_64-server-6
    capsules/packages/rhel-i386-server-optional-6
    capsules/packages/rhel-i386-server-6
    capsules/packages/rhel-x86_64-server-optional-6    

Each subdirectory under capsules/packages is the name of a channel in satellite.
Only copy rpms to those directories, otherwise the code will try to pull rpm
headers from non-rpm files.
