Browser GUI For Package Server #27

Open moriel5 opened 4 years ago

Something like https://packages.getsol.us would go a long way towards advanced users.

Having it automatically get updated via scripts whenever files get added/updated/removed will ease maintainability.

why are you doing this?

cantalupo555 commented 4 years ago

Thanks, but anyone can help here. I will add the source for all package soon. https://github.com/cantalupo555/repo-solus/tree/master/package

@sidbelbase I do not understand your question.

@cantalupo Thanks, however I was simply giving a recommendation for making things easier for users (primarily advanced users) to understand what packages are on the server, and at what versions, as well as allow direct access to the files (including older versions).

I understand perfectly, but hosting them and keeping all versions on some server will be expensive. It would need a large storage space.

However I am doing this on my local machine.

AWS S3 is a good option provided that it falls under aws free tier.

Done. At least the latest updates are still on the server. When 90% of space is used, I do a new cleaning.

Thanks, that's awesome. As for storage, you could host just the last two or three versions on the server, while hosting the rest on GitHub.

It would need more maintaining.

moriel5 commented 3 years ago

@sidbelbase Ah, I understand. Could a script that automatically copies over the older versions to GitHub, and then removes them from the dedicated server, assist in that regard?

sarojbelbase commented 3 years ago

@moriel5 it would do wonders! 👍🏼 :)

moriel5 commented 3 years ago

I'll try learning how to make one.
