RepoLib is a Python library and CLI tool-set for managing your software system software repositories. It’s currently set up to handle APT repositories on Debian-based linux distributions.
RepoLib is intended to operate on DEB822-format sources. It aims to provide feature parity with software-properties for most commonly used functions.
Documentation
Documentation is available online at Read The Docs.
Basic CLI Usage
RepoLib includes a CLI program for managing software repositories,
apt-manage
.
Usage is divided into subcommands for most tasks. Currently implemented commands are:
apt-manage add # Adds repositories to the system apt-manage list # Lists configuration details of repositories
Additional information is available with the built-in help:
apt-manage –help
Add
Apt-manage allows entering a URL for a repository, a complete debian line, or a Launchpad PPA shortcut (e.g. “ppa:user/repo”). It also adds signing keys for PPA style repositories automatically.
List
With no options, it outputs a list of the currently configured repositories on
the system (all those found in
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/
. With a configured repository as an argument, it outputs the configuration
details of the specified repository.
Remove
Accepts one repository as an argument. Removes the specified repository.
NOTE: The system repository (/etc/at/sources.list.d/system.sources) cannot be removed.
Source
Allows enabling or disabling source code for the given repository.
Modify
Allows changing configuration details of a given repository
