General Information
empanadas is a python project using poetry, containing various built-in modules
with the goal to try to emulate the Fedora Project's pungi to an extent. While it
is not perfect, it achieves the very basic goals of creating repositories, images
and ISO's for consumption by the end user. It also has interactions with peridot,
the build system used by Rocky Linux to build the distribution.
For performing syncs, it relies on the use of podman to perform syncing in a parallel fashion. This was done because it is not possible to run multiple dnf transactions at once on a single system and looping one repository at a time is not sustainable.
Requirements
- Poetry must be available on the system
- Podman must be installed on the system
- fpart must be installed on the system (available in EPEL)
- Enough storage should be available if repositories are being synced
