Title: New portage plug-in sync system
Author: Brian Dolbec <dolsen@gentoo.org>
Content-Type: text/plain
Posted: 2015-02-02
Revision: 1
News-Item-Format: 1.0
Display-If-Installed: sys-apps/portage
There is a new plug-in sync system in >=sys-apps/portage-2.2.16.
This system will allow third party modules to be easily installed. Look
for a new layman plug-in sync module in layman's next release. Next is
a brief look at the changes. See the url [1] listed below for detailed
descriptions and usage.
Changes: /etc/portage/repos.conf/*
New setting for all repository types (needed):
auto-sync = yes/no, true/false # default if absent: yes/true
New for git sync-type: (applies to clone only)
sync-depth = n where n = {0,1,2,3,...} (optional, default = 1)
0 -- full history
1 -- shallow clone, only current state (default)
2,3,... number of history changes to download
New sync-type modules:
sync-type = svn # sync a subversion repository
sync-type = websync # Perform an emerge-webrsync operation
sync-type = laymanator # (if installed) runs a layman -s action
New native portage postsync hooks
/etc/portage/postsync.d/*
Runs hooks once, only after all repos have been synced.
/etc/portage/repo.postsync.d/*
Runs each script with three arguments:
repo name, sync-uri, location
Each script is run at the completion of every repo synced.
Migration:
Edit /etc/portage/repos.conf/*.conf files, add the auto-sync option
to each repository definition. Edit sync-type option to one of the
supported types {rsync, git, cvs, svn, websync, laymanator}.
[some-repo]
...
sync-type = rsync
auto-sync = yes
For an existing /etc/portage/repos.conf/layman.conf file:
1) change/add the sync-type
sync-type = laymanator
2) Ensure you have the correct layman version installed with
it's laymanator module also installed.
Alternate method:
Please see the wiki page url [1] for detailed instructions.
Primary control of all sync operations has been moved from emerge to
emaint. "emerge --sync" now just calls the emaint sync module with the
--auto option. The --auto option performs a sync on only those
repositories with the auto-sync setting not set to 'no' or 'false'. If
it is absent, then it will default to yes and "emerge --sync" will sync
the repository.
NOTE: As a result of the default auto-sync = True/Yes setting, commands
like "eix-sync", "esync -l", "emerge --sync && layman -S" will cause
many repositories to be synced multiple times in a row. Please edit
your configs or scripts to adjust for the new operation.
WARNING:
Due to the above default. For any repos that you EXPLICITLY do not
want to be synced. You MUST set "auto-sync = no"
The 'emaint sync' module operates similar to layman. It can sync
single or multiple repos. See "emaint --help" or for more details and
examples see the wiki page listed below [1].
