A doll's Arch Linux User Repository! 👩‍💻 🎀

ABOUT 📚

I recently saw a video by DistroTube here in which he creates his own package repository for Arch Linux systems. Since distributing some of the code I write has been an issue, I thought I would follow his guide and make my own Arch Linux package repository. This repository contains a build script, packages, and PKGBUILD files. Enjoy! ❤️

USAGE 🔨

I shall assume that you are running some flavor of Arch Linux. Add the following lines to the file /etc/pacman.conf to use this package repository.

[doll-aur]
SigLevel = Optional DatabaseOptional
Server = https://angeldollface.boo/$repo/any

Once you have added these lines, run the following command:

sudo pacman -Syyu

AVAILABLE PACKAGES ✒️

Any of the available packages can be installed with this command:

sudo pacman -S package_name

package_name represents any of the packages listed below.

CONTRIBUTE 🫂

If you would like to add your own package, make sure you are running Arch Linux or a derivative of it. You must also have the base-devel and git packages installed. This can be done with the pacman command. Follow these steps to add your own package:

  • 1.) Clone the repository to your machine:
git clone https://github.com/angeldollface/doll-aur.git
  • 2.) Change directory into the repository's root:
cd doll-aur
  • 3.) Remove the output directory:
rm -rf output
  • 4.) Create a new directory in the pkgs directory (name_of_your_package represents the name of your package.):
mkdir -p pkgs/name_of_your_package

  • 5.) Create and write your PKGBUILD file in this directory.

  • 6.) Change directory into the repository's root and run the following command:

cd src && bash.build.sh

  • 7.) If everything went without problems, there should now be a directory in the repository's root called output. This directory should contain a sub-folder called x86_64. This folder should contain your package.

  • 8.) Stage your changes, commit your changes, push your changes, and file a PR.
