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 <architecture>, --arch=<architecture>
              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>, --download-path=<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
              Download only 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
