# Debanator
|
|
|
|
Easily make a debian apt repo from a bunch of `.deb` files.
|
|
|
|
- You have some deb files
|
|
- You want to be able to `apt-get install` them on systems
|
|
- You want this to happen automatically (perhaps the debs are on a webdav share, or in
|
|
github releases)
|
|
|
|
## Status
|
|
|
|
Proof of concept. Neither fast, efficient, secure, neat, or featureful. Don't use in
|
|
production unless you are really sure you know what you're doing and even then prepare
|
|
to have your laundry eaten.
|
|

## Contributing
|
|
Contributions welcome! You may find the Github mirror at https://github.com/wlcx/debanator easier if you're not already there.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
`debanator -debpath ./path/to/your/debs -httppass hunter2`
|
|
|
|
For more, see `-help`.
|
|
|
|
Then, on the system you want packages on:
|
|
|
|
- `echo "deb http://debanator:hunter2@<host of debanator>:1612/ stable main`
|
|
- `curl http://debanator:hunter2@<host of debanator>:1612/pubkey.gpg | apt-key add -`
|
|
- `apt update`
|
|
- `apt install your-package`
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Tailscale
|
|
|
|
Debanator supports listening inside a [Tailscale] tailnet as a ["Virtual Private
|
|
Service"][vps]. To enable this mode, generate an auth key in the Tailscale admin panel
|
|
and pass it as the `TS_AUTHKEY` env var. You can change the hostname debanator uses with
|
|
`-tailscalehostname`.
|
|
|
|
Note that debanator still respects `-listenaddr`, which given you're inside a tailnet
|
|
now you probably just want to set to `:80`.
|
|
|
|
## Discussion
|
|
|
|
- Yes, you could just use dpkg-scanpackages, but you'd have to write some script which
|
|
did that, plus gpg and also fetched your packages from wherever they are.
