Creating and using your own repository

See also: Creating a package

Shoppe currently makes it possible to use two types of repositories: GitHub repositories and local repositories.

Each repository contains separate folders for each package. These directories have two files inside of them:

• content.tar.gz is the prebuild content file.
• shoppepkg is the file that stores all of the information about the package (see Creating a package)

To add a repository, add it to the repository file, located by default in ~/.config/shoppe/repos.

Each line represents a different repository. The following lines can be added:

GithubRepo=user/reponame
Local=/path/to/repository

Modify them to your own needs.

If you need an example, check the official repository.
