Debian-APT-Mirror

Debian-APT-Mirror

Docker app from ich777's Repository

Overview

This container will run apt-mirror and Apache2. This allows you to create a local apt mirror for Debian packages.

On first run you will have to edit the mirror.list file that lives in your CONFIG_DIR which repositories you want to sync and other settings like how many threads to use for downloading,...
Restart the container afterwards (keep an eye on the logs the container will tell you what to do).

ATTENTION/WARNING: Keep in mind that the first sync can take very long depending on how much repositories you've selected (stable main contrib non-free: Will take about 200GB of hard drive space!).

Update from the mirror files: By default a cron job will run every day at 01:00 which will update your mirror.

Mirror address: The default address for the mirror is 'http://ipFROMtheCONTAINER:980'
Add something like this to your '/etc/apt/sources.list': 'deb http://ipFROMtheCONTAINER:980/debian stable main contrib non-free'
