A lightweight, bare-bones apt repository server.

This project came from a need I had to be able to serve up already created deb packages without a lot of fuss. Most of the existing solutions I found were either geared at mirroring existing "official" repos or for providing your packages to the public. My need was just something that I could use internally to install already built deb packages via apt-get. I didn't care about change files, signed packages, etc. Since this was to be used in a CI pipeline it had to support remote uploads and be able to update the package list after each upload.

• Supports multiple versions of packages
• Supports multi-arch repos (i386, amd64, custom, etc)
• Supports uploading via HTTP/HTTPS POST requests
• Supports removing packages via HTTP/HTTPS DELETE requests
• Does NOT require a changes file
• Supports uploads from various locations without corrupting the repo

• Create actual packages
• Mirror existing repos

Install using go get. Fill out the conf.json file with the values you want, it should be pretty self-explanatory, then fire it up!

Once it is running POST a file to the /upload endpoint:

curl -XPOST 'http://localhost:9090/upload?arch=amd64' -F "file=@myapp.deb"

Or delete an existing file:

curl -XDELETE 'http://localhost:9090/delete' -d '{"filename":"myapp.deb","arch":"amd64"}'

To use your new repo you will have to add a line like this to your sources.list file:

deb http://my-hostname:listenPort/ stable main

my-hostname should be the actual hostname/IP where you are running deb-simple and listenPort will be whatever you set in the config. By default deb-simple puts everything into the stable distro and main section. If you have enabled SSL you will want to swap http for https.
