| # Debian Package Registry
 | |
| 
 | |
| Publish [Debian](https://www.debian.org/distrib/packages) packages for your user or organization.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Requirements
 | |
| 
 | |
| To work with the Debian registry, you need to use a HTTP client like `curl` to upload and a package manager like `apt` to consume packages.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The following examples use `apt`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Configuring the package registry
 | |
| 
 | |
| To register the Debian registry add the url to the list of known apt sources:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```shell
 | |
| echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/gitea-{owner}.asc] https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/debian {distribution} {component}" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gitea.list
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| | Placeholder    | Description |
 | |
| | -------------- | ----------- |
 | |
| | `owner`        | The owner of the package. |
 | |
| | `distribution` | The distribution to use. |
 | |
| | `component`    | The component to use. |
 | |
| 
 | |
| If the registry is private, provide credentials in the url. You can use a password or a [personal access token](development/api-usage.md#authentication):
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```shell
 | |
| echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/gitea-{owner}.asc] https://{username}:{your_password_or_token}@gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/debian {distribution} {component}" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gitea.list
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| The Debian registry files are signed with a PGP key which must be known to apt:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```shell
 | |
| sudo curl https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/debian/repository.key -o /etc/apt/keyrings/gitea-{owner}.asc
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Afterwards update the local package index:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```shell
 | |
| apt update
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Publish a package
 | |
| 
 | |
| To publish a Debian package (`*.deb`), perform a HTTP `PUT` operation with the package content in the request body.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| PUT https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/debian/pool/{distribution}/{component}/upload
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| | Parameter      | Description |
 | |
| | -------------- | ----------- |
 | |
| | `owner`        | The owner of the package. |
 | |
| | `distribution` | The distribution may match the release name of the OS, ex: `bionic`. |
 | |
| | `component`    | The component can be used to group packages or just `main` or similar. |
 | |
| 
 | |
| Example request using HTTP Basic authentication:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```shell
 | |
| curl --user your_username:your_password_or_token \
 | |
|      --upload-file path/to/file.deb \
 | |
|      https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/debian/pool/bionic/main/upload
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| If you are using 2FA or OAuth use a [personal access token](development/api-usage.md#authentication) instead of the password.
 | |
| 
 | |
| You cannot publish a package if a package of the same name, version, distribution, component and architecture already exists. You must delete the existing package first.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The server responds with the following HTTP Status codes.
 | |
| 
 | |
| | HTTP Status Code  | Meaning |
 | |
| | ----------------- | ------- |
 | |
| | `201 Created`     | The package has been published. |
 | |
| | `400 Bad Request` | The package is invalid. |
 | |
| | `409 Conflict`    | A package file with the same combination of parameters exists already. |
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Delete a package
 | |
| 
 | |
| To delete a Debian package perform a HTTP `DELETE` operation. This will delete the package version too if there is no file left.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| DELETE https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/debian/pool/{distribution}/{component}/{package_name}/{package_version}/{architecture}
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| | Parameter         | Description |
 | |
| | ----------------- | ----------- |
 | |
| | `owner`           | The owner of the package. |
 | |
| | `package_name`    | The package name. |
 | |
| | `package_version` | The package version. |
 | |
| | `distribution`    | The package distribution. |
 | |
| | `component`       | The package component. |
 | |
| | `architecture`    | The package architecture. |
 | |
| 
 | |
| Example request using HTTP Basic authentication:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```shell
 | |
| curl --user your_username:your_token_or_password -X DELETE \
 | |
|      https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/debian/pools/bionic/main/test-package/1.0.0/amd64
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| The server responds with the following HTTP Status codes.
 | |
| 
 | |
| | HTTP Status Code  | Meaning |
 | |
| | ----------------- | ------- |
 | |
| | `204 No Content`  | Success |
 | |
| | `404 Not Found`   | The package or file was not found. |
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Install a package
 | |
| 
 | |
| To install a package from the Debian registry, execute the following commands:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```shell
 | |
| # use latest version
 | |
| apt install {package_name}
 | |
| # use specific version
 | |
| apt install {package_name}={package_version}
 | |
| ```
