README

        
#+title: vauxite-build

This is my personalized Vauxite configuration. Vauxite is an unofficial Xfce variant of ostree-based Fedora. I'm currently working with Fedora developers to make it an official variant. There is already a sort-of-official treefile for Vauxite at https://pagure.io/workstation-ostree-config, as well as an experimental Vauxite container image hosted at https://quay.io/repository/fedora-ostree-desktops/vauxite.

The ~vauxite.json~ treefile and ~xfce-desktop-pkgs.yaml~ under the ~src~ directory contain my personal customizations and differ from the [[https://pagure.io/workstation-ostree-config][upstream ones]]. As such, they may not be suitable for everyone.

** How I use this repository

- I run Fedora Server in a VM on my homelab machine. This Fedora Server has the ~ostree~ and ~rpm-ostree~ commands installed.

- I clone this repository as root under ~/var/local/vauxite-build~.

- I then run the ~ostree-engine~ script to build and deploy a new commit for the given reference branch (e.g. ~vauxite/f39/x86_64/main~). The ~rsync-repos~ command is used in the ~ostree-engine~ script to deploy the resulting OSTree repository to a web server root, which serves as the remote repository.

  To add the repository as a remote on my local client machine:

  #+begin_src shell

  sudo ostree remote add --no-gpg-verify vauxite 

  #+end_src

  I then rebase to the vauxite branch:

  #+begin_src shell

  rpm-ostree rebase vauxite:vauxite/f39/x86_64/main

  #+end_src

  To build new commits that contain updates, I put this in ~/etc/cron.d/ostree-engine~ on the Fedora Server:

  #+begin_src shell

  0 0 * * 2 root /var/local/vauxite-build/ostree-engine

  #+end_src

  This will run the ~ostree-engine~ script every Tuesday at midnight. Then I can update my local client machine like this:

  #+begin_src shell

  rpm-ostree update

  #+end_src
