Debian repository scripts
These are the scripts that manage the Debian repository.
They work by downloading the .deb files from GitHub releases, setting things up so that apt will be able to understand how to install them, and then uploading the signed files to a server.
These scripts will only work on Linux. You must have python3, gzip, gpg, rclone, and dpkg installed. These scripts don't use apt or try to install .deb files, but they do use dpkg-scanpackages. Many distributions that aren't Debian based will still let you install the dpkg helper binaries. rclone is used for uploading the final binaries, but you can really use whatever you want for this.
All commands here assume you are in the same directory as this file (debian).
Generating GPG key
Run:
gpg --full-generate-key
Use the options:
- (4) RSA (sign only)
- 4096 bits
- 0 = key does not expire
Then find the key's ID from:
gpg --list-keys
Finally export the public key with:
gpg --armor --export THE_KEY_ID_HERE > ../docs/release-signing-key.gpg
The signing script will automatically parse that file to determine which key to ask gpg to use.
Configure rclone
By default, our upload script uploads to an rclone remote called r2 and bucket turbowarp-pkgs.
Updating the repository
Once a GitHub release is made, updating the repository is fully automated by running one script:
./everything.sh
