# rpm-download
Shell script for downloading rpm-package(s) from modern RPM repositories
Under the hood this script uses Docker to obtain minimal file-system of needed system release. And then it download package(s) to the `storage` sub-directory and saves the list of download URL(s) in `storage/urls.txt` file. The created Docker images will be named with `rd-` prefix, you can remove them manually later.
The `rpm-download.sh` takes at least three pairs of arguments, as shown in example below:
```
./rpm-download.sh -d alt -r p8 -p mc
```
* `-d` (distribution, mandatory) - `alt` for ALTLinux, `fedora` for Fedora, `mageia` for Mageia, `openmandriva` for OpenMandriva, `opensuse` for OpenSuSe, `rosa` for ROSA, `rockylinux` for Rocky Linux, `almalinux` for AlmaLinux, `oraclelinux` for Oracle Linux, `redos` for RedOS, `msvsphere` for MSVSphere, `centos` for CentOS;
* `-r` (release, mandatory) - supported versions are the following: ALTLinux from `p8` to `sisyphus`, Fedora from `22` to `rawhide`, Mageia from `7` to `cauldron`, OpenMandriva - `4.2`, `cooker` and `rome`, OpenSuSe from `leap` to `tumbleweed`, Rosa - only `2021.1`, Rocky Linux from `8.4`, AlmaLinux from `8.4`, Oracle Linux from `8`, RedOS - only `latest`, MSVSphere from `8` to `latest`, CentOS from `stream9`;
* `-p` (with quotes for multiple packages, mandatory) - represent package(s) name(s) - in the above example it is single `mc` package. For two packages use `"mc htop"` (for example);
* `-s` (get source code of package(s), optional);
* `-a` (enable Autoimports for ALTLinux, optional);
* `-t` extra repository in three possible formats - `` or "` `" (Fedora, OpenSuSe, Mageia, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, RedOS), full rpm sources.list line (ALTLinux), `epel` (for CentOS) (optional).
Note: if you have configured proxy in your network, then you can supply its address as the argument to the application - `http_proxy=http://192.168.12.34:8000 ./rpm-download.sh -d alt -r p8 -p mc` .
How to start using this script:
1. Install Docker and dependencies to the host system
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install docker.io git
1. Add current user to the `docker` group
sudo usermod -a -G docker $USER
then reboot machine.
1. Clone this repository
cd ~/Downloads
git clone https://github.com/N0rbert/rpm-download.git
1. Fetch some random rpm-package
cd rpm-download
chmod +x rpm-download.sh
./rpm-download.sh -d alt -r p9 -p fslint
1. Carefully inspect the contents of `storage` folder, then try to install main rpm-package to the target system, then fix its dependencies one-by-one.
Please also note that this `storage` folder will be cleared on next run of the script!
**Warning:** author of this script can't provide any warranty about successful installation of downloaded rpm-packages on the target system. Be careful!
