Proxy capable of extracting the latest Semantic Version (SemVer) of Debian packages from fury.
Designed for CI/CD pipelines, bash scripts, and automated update checkers that need to quickly resolve the absolute latest version of a package without downloading massive repository manifests.
My packages hosted at fury were often listed in no particular order. This made it difficult to get the latest version of a package to be shown in a GitHub badge or in the package documentation.
The service is entirely controlled via URL query parameters. Send a GET request to the base URL with the following strings:
| Parameter | Type | Requirement | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
user |
string |
Required | The absolute, direct URL to the plain-text Packages file of the target APT repository. |
pkg |
string |
Required | The exact name of the package you want to query. |

Note
This project uses Cloudflare Workers Analytics Engine to collect anonymous usage metrics. This data helps in monitoring the health of the proxy (e.g., catching 502/500 errors) and understanding which packages are most frequently requested.
IP addresses or any personally identifiable information (PII) are not logged in any way.
