NAME

dnf-reposync − DNF reposync Plugin

Synchronize packages of a remote DNF repository to a local directory.

SYNOPSIS

dnf reposync [options]

DESCRIPTION

reposync makes local copies of remote repositories. Packages that are already present in the local directory are not downloaded again.

OPTIONS

All general DNF options are accepted. Namely, the −−repoid option can be used to specify the repositories to synchronize. See Options in dnf(8) for details.
−a , −−arch=

Download only packages of given architectures (default is all architectures). Can be used multiple times.

−−delete

Delete local packages no longer present in repository.

−−download−metadata

Download all repository metadata. Downloaded copy is instantly usable as a repository, no need to run createrepo_c on it.

−g, −−gpgcheck

Remove packages that fail GPG signature checking after downloading. Exit code is 1 if at least one package was removed. Note that for repositories with gpgcheck=0 set in their configuration the GPG signature is not checked even with this option used.

−m, −−downloadcomps

Also download and uncompress comps.xml. Consider using −−download−metadata option which will download all available repository metadata.

−−metadata−path

Root path under which the downloaded metadata are stored. It defaults to −−download−path value if not given.

−n, −−newest−only

Download only newest packages per−repo.

−−norepopath

Don’t add the reponame to the download path. Can only be used when syncing a single repository (default is to add the reponame).

−p , −−download−path=

Root path under which the downloaded repositories are stored, relative to the current working directory. Defaults to the current working directory. Every downloaded repository has a subdirectory named after its ID under this path.

−−remote−time

Try to set the timestamps of the downloaded files to those on the remote side.

−−source

Operate on source packages.

−u, −−urls

Just print urls of what would be downloaded, don’t download.

EXAMPLES

dnf reposync −−repoid=the_repo

Synchronize all packages from the repository with id “the_repo”. The synchronized copy is saved in “the_repo” subdirectory of the current working directory.

dnf reposync −p /my/repos/path −−repoid=the_repo

Synchronize all packages from the repository with id “the_repo”. In this case files are saved in “/my/repos/path/the_repo” directory.

dnf reposync −−repoid=the_repo −−download−metadata

Synchronize all packages and metadata from “the_repo” repository.

Repository synchronized with −−download−metadata option can be directly used in DNF for example by using −−repofrompath option:

dnf −−repofrompath=syncedrepo,the_repo −−repoid=syncedrepo list −−available
