Ayato | 綾人

Ayato is a Blinkyd compatible backend for ayaka and blinky.It handles package hosting with automatic database updates.

Features

• Upload package file with blinky or ayaka command

• Delete package file with blinky command

• Auto update repository database

• Store binaries in S3 or local

• Store metadata in SQL or local

• Minimal Pacman dependency

Dependencies

ayato depends on the repo-add and repo-remove commands, which are included in the pacman package.

Your entire system does not need to be managed by pacman; you can simply install the pacman package on any distribution.

This is one of the advantages of ayato not being responsible for package compilation itself.

• ArchLinux/Manjaro: You are probably already using Pacman
• Debian/Ubuntu: apt install pacman-package-manager
• AlpineLinux: apk add pacman
• Fedora: dnf install pacman

In other words, you can host the Pacman package manager on almost any distribution. (I personally do not like using ArchLinux for server purposes.)

Todo

• Implement basic features
  • Store metadata
