pkg_fcgi - FastCGI interface for the OpenBSD ports tree

pkg_fcgi is meant to be the replacement of gempkg, a Python CGI script that allows to browse the OpenBSD package archive via Gemini.

There's a hosted version updated daily available at gemini://gemini.omarpolo.com/cgi/gempkg/.

pkg_fcgi depends on libevent and sqlite3. To build, please run

$ ./configure
$ make
$ doas make install

To operate, pkg_fcgi needs an augmented version of the sqlite database installed by the sqlports package. To generate it, issue;

# install -d -o www /var/www/pkg_fcgi/
# cp /usr/local/share/sqlports /var/www/pkg_fcgi/pkgs.sqlite3
# sqlite3 /var/www/pkg_fcgi/pkgs.sqlite3 <schema.sql

A sample configuration for gmid is:

server "localhost" {
	listen on *
	fastcgi socket "/run/pkg_fcgi.sock"
}
