About the Project

I want to contribute to a project I personally use. So I started to wirte a dockerfile to easily support the fdroid network with another mirror. Right now only the main repo will be mirrored.

Getting Started

Have ~50GB free space for the "main" repo and optional ~150 GB space for the archive. Create an docker volume, get some monitoring environment done and start the container. For more information visit https://f-droid.org/en/docs/Running_a_Mirror/

Requirements

• docker
• JrCs docker environment for a reverse proxy and certificates
• rsync password from fdroid

Installation

docker build -t fdroid-mirror --build-arg domain=your.domain.tld --build-arg \
RSYNC_PASSWORD=thepassword --no-cache .

docker volume create fdroid-repo

Usage

docker run --name fdroid-mirror-repo -d --cap-add NET_ADMIN \
-v fdroid-repo:/var/www/fdroid/fdroid/repo/ fdroid-mirror:latest
