F-Droid is an installable catalogue of FOSS (Free and Open Source Software)
|
|
applications for the Android platform. The client makes it easy to browse,
|
|
install, and keep track of updates on your device.
|
|
|
|
The F-Droid server tools provide various scripts and tools that are used to
|
|
maintain the main F-Droid application repository. You can use these same tools
|
|
to create your own additional or alternative repository for publishing, or to
|
|
assist in creating, testing and submitting metadata to the main repository.
|

Installing
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to install the `fdroidserver` tools is on Debian, Ubuntu, Mint
|
|
or other Debian based distributions, you can install using:
|
|
|
|
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:guardianproject/ppa
|
|
sudo apt-get update
|
|
sudo apt-get install fdroidserver
|
|
|
|
But you can also use `virtualenv` and `pip` python tools that also work on other
|
|
distributions.
|
|
|
|
First, make sure you have installed the python header files, virtualenv and pip.
|
|
They should be included in your OS's default package manager or you can install
|
|
them via other mechanisms like Brew/dnf/pacman/emerge/Fink/MacPorts.
|
|
|
|
For Debian based distributions:
|
|
|
|
apt-get install python-dev python-pip python-virtualenv
|
|
|
|
Then here's how to install:
|
|
|
|
git clone https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroidserver.git
|
|
cd fdroidserver
|
|
virtualenv env/
|
|
source env/bin/activate
|
|
pip install -e .
|
|
python2 setup.py install
|
