A repository for binary packages contains the packages itself, and
|
|
an index file describing the information about available packages.
|
|
|
|
The structure for this file is just the same than the plist file used
|
|
to register installed packages, aka "an array of dictionaries" and
|
|
a "dictionary per package". Additional objects are added into the
|
|
main dictionary to specify more info, like:
|
|
|
|
- pkgindex-version: version used to build the index.
|
|
- location-local: local path to the repository.
|
|
- location-remote: remote URI repository.
|
|
- total-pkgs: total of number of available packages.
|
|
|
|
"location-local" will always be created, and it might be exported via
|
|
a remote location specified with "location-remote".
|
|
|
|
The package dictionary will be the same than the one available in
|
|
package's metadata directory "/var/cache/xbps/$pkgname/props.plist",
|
|
but some additional objects are added to provide enough info for
|
|
the repository itself.
|
|
|
|
Here's how the package index plist file shall look like in a repository:
|
|
|

<string>1.0</string>

<string>
|
|
klibc is intended to be a minimalistic libc subset for use with initramfs.
|
|
It is deliberately written for small size, minimal entanglement, and
|
|
portability, not speed. It is definitely a work in progress and a lot of
|
|
things are still missing.</string>
