NAME
reposync - redirecting to 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. When the option is used with –newest-only, only latest packages will be
downloaded, but metadata will still contain older packages. It might be useful to update metadata
using createrepo_c –update to remove the packages with missing RPM files from metadata. Otherwise,
DNF ends with an error due to the missing files whenever it tries to download older packages.
-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.
--safe-write-path
Specify the filesystem path prefix under which the reposync is allowed to write. If not specified
it defaults to download path of the repository. Useful for repositories that use relative
locations of packages out of repository directory (e.g. “../packages_store/foo.rpm”). Use with
care, any file under the safe-write-path can be overwritten. Can be only used when syncing a
single repository.
--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
