EPEL7 rpms builds are visible at kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org and often remain available there long after they age out of the official repo. Use kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org as a backup source for packages when not found in the repo. Log seperately so that these dropouts can be identified and corrected in the lst files. Also improved the tests for already downloaded packages in several places to accelerate the test cycle.

Create mirror for StarlingX
Step 0 - Build the container
Build the docker image on your Linux host (with Docker supported). NOTE: if necessary you might have to set http/https proxy in your Dockerfile before building the docker image below.
$ docker build -t <your_docker_image_name>:<your_image_version> -f Dockerfile .
Step 1 - Run the container
The container shall be run from the same directory where the other scripts are stored.
$ docker run -it -v $(pwd):/localdisk <your_docker_image_name>:<your_image_version>
The container can also be run the following way, so the
download_mirror.sh
runs automatically without having to
enter the container and the step 2can be simplified.
$ docker run -it -v $(pwd):/localdisk <your_docker_image_name>:<your_image_version> download_mirror.sh
As /localdisk
is defined as the workdir of the
container, the same folder name should be used to define the volume. The
container will start to run and populate a logs
and
output
folders in this directory. The container shall be
run from the same directory where the other scripts are stored.
step 2 - Run the
download_mirror.sh
script
Once inside the container run the downloader script
$ ./download_mirror.sh
NOTE: in case there are some downloading failures due to network instability (or timeout), you should download them manually, to assure you get all RPMs listed in "rpms_from_3rd_parties.lst" and "rpms_from_centos_repo.lst".
step 3 - Copy the files to the mirror
After all downloading complete, copy the download files to mirror.
$ find ./output -name "*.i686.rpm" | xargs rm -f $ chown 751:751 -R ./output $ cp -rf output/stx-r1/ <your_mirror_folder>/
In this case <your_mirror_folder>
can be whatever
folder you want to use as mirror.
step 4 - Tweaks in the StarlingX build system.
NOTE: step below is not needed if you've synced the latest codebase.
Go into StarlingX build system (another container which hosts cgcs build system), and follow up below steps:
Debugging issues
The download_mirror.sh
script will create log files in
the form of centos_rpms_*.txt
. After the download is
complete, it's recommended to check the content of these files to see if
everything was downloaded correctly.
A quick look into these files could be:
$ cd output/ $ cat missing
In this case, there shoudn't be any package in the "missing" files.
