A simple service which receives HTTP build triggers from GitLab, gets the built packages and puts them in aptly and RPM repos.

# apt-get install python-yaml python-pip
# pip install python-gitlab

Clone this repository and switch into the directory:

# python setup.py install
# mkdir /var/run/aptly-spooler
# chown mirror:mirror /var/run/aptly-spooler

The main config file for the bot is located at /etc/gitlab-pkgbot.yaml.

It runs as a systemd service. You can view logs with the following command:

# journalctl -u gitlab-pkgbot.service

Since aptly can only run one command at once, this script sets up a simple "spooler" for running all aptly commands. This is implemented via a FIFO-Socket located at /var/run/aptly-spooler/fifo.sock. The socket accepts commands seperated by newlines and executes them one by one.

You can manually pipe commands into this spooler as well:

# echo "sleep 10" > /var/run/aptly-spooler/fifo.sock
# echo "ps -efH" > /var/run/aptly-spooler/fifo.sock

It runs as a systemd service. You can view logs with the following command:

# journalctl -u aptly-spooler.service

The bot copies the extracted packages into a specific directory tree before adding them to the specific repositories. Meaning the required directories have to be created first:

# cd /path/to/your/mirror/dir
# mkdir -p centos/{6,7} redhat/{6,7} debian/{jessie,wheezy} \
  ubuntu/{trusty,vivid,xenial}mkdir -p centos/{6,7} rhel/{6,7}
# chown -R mirror:mirror /path/to/your/mirror/dir
