Alpine Linux Package Mirror - Docker Image

A Dockerfile which builds an alpine linux package mirror server. It may also be used to host a private package repo for packages that aren't part of the core distribution.

Based on How_to_setup_a_Alpine_Linux_mirror

To configure alpine to use your new package mirror see Alpine_Linux_package_management

disk usage

Make sure that you have enough disk space; each v3.x branch has around 20 GiB.

Current (20170510) disk usage:

edge	v2.4	v2.5	v2.6	v2.7	v3.0	v3.1	v3.2	v3.3	v3.4	v3.5	v3.6	Total
53.1G	18.8G	10.4G	13.0G	16.5G	16.5G	17.5G	14.5G	19.0G	23.2G	32.5G	34.4G	269.5G

custom download branch

you can disable download what do you want branch or cpu version

/etc/rsync/exclude.txt

edge+v2.*+v3.x is alpine version,aarch64,armhf,ppc64le,s390x,x86,x86_64 is cpu architecture.

e.g. v3.6 + x86_64 only 11 GB

run this code to check your cpu architecture.

lscpu | grep Architecture

output like

lscpu | grep Architecture
Architecture:          x86_64
