Hi everyone,
So I have the repo built (BTW, Travis CI is able to upload files to pages by itself) here: https://github.com/asm0dey/arch-kodi-devel-builder/tree/gh-pages/x86_64
It's built with `repo-add` command and looks correct to me. Next question to everybody: how will pacman detect database without directory listing?
$ curl -s https://asm0dey.github.io/arch-kodi-devel-builder/x86_64/repo.db | bsdtar -tf - kodi-bin-devel-18.4rc1pre20-1/ kodi-bin-devel-18.4rc1pre20-1/desc kodi-dev-devel-18.4rc1pre20-1/ kodi-dev-devel-18.4rc1pre20-1/desc kodi-devel-18.4rc1pre20-1/ kodi-devel-18.4rc1pre20-1/desc kodi-eventclients-devel-18.4rc1pre20-1/ kodi-eventclients-devel-18.4rc1pre20-1/desc kodi-gbm-devel-18.4rc1pre20-1/ kodi-gbm-devel-18.4rc1pre20-1/desc kodi-tools-texturepacker-devel-18.4rc1pre20-1/ kodi-tools-texturepacker-devel-18.4rc1pre20-1/desc kodi-wayland-devel-18.4rc1pre20-1/ kodi-wayland-devel-18.4rc1pre20-1/desc So the pacman.conf setting would be: [repo] Server = https://asm0dey.github.io/arch-kodi-devel-builder/$arch I advise using a more descriptive name for the repository instead of "repo.db". Aside for that, pacman only cares about being told the name of the .db, and then it downloads that directly (by concatenating the Server directive, a "/", the repository name, and ".db"), getting all other information by using a database parser, not via regular expressions on an HTML file. As I said on Wednesday:
If you want an HTML index, you can generate your own or rely on webserver software to do so automatically, but it would be entirely for the interactive viewing pleasure of the user.
