# Alpine Packages
Alpine stable packaging for internal packages. This repository carries selected
upstream releases ahead of Alpine community packages when we need newer
features, packaging fixes, or service layouts on the current Alpine branch.
Packages are either source builds or binary repackages:
- Source builds compile upstream source releases inside the Alpine build
environment and link against Alpine libraries.
- Binary repackages wrap official upstream Linux release artifacts in Alpine
package metadata, OpenRC services, config defaults, and role subpackages.

## Available Packages
| Package | APK Name | Package Version | Package Type | Purpose |
|-----------------------------------------------------------|--------------|-----------------|----------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| [SeaweedFS](packaging/alpine/local/seaweedfs/README.md) | `seaweedfs` | `4.40` | Binary repackaging of official upstream release tarballs | Ships current SeaweedFS features with Alpine OpenRC role splits. |
| [GreptimeDB](packaging/alpine/local/greptimedb/README.md) | `greptimedb` | `1.1.4` | Source build from upstream release | Provides a current GreptimeDB build and component OpenRC packages before it is available from Alpine community. |
| [LavinMQ](packaging/alpine/local/lavinmq/README.md) | `lavinmq` | `2.9.1` | Source build from upstream release | Provides a current LavinMQ build on Alpine 3.24 with matching Crystal support. |
| [Gitea](packaging/alpine/local/gitea/README.md) | `gitea` | `1.27.0` | Binary repackaging of official upstream release binaries | Ships current Gitea releases with the expected Alpine runtime layout and OpenRC service. |
## Use In Production
### Add The Package Repository
Install the registry key:
```sh
cd /etc/apk/keys
curl -fsSLOJ https://code.factoring.digital/api/packages/public/alpine/key
```
Add the repository for the node's Alpine branch:
```sh
printf '%s\n' \
'https://code.factoring.digital/api/packages/public/alpine/v3.24/alpine-packages' \
>> /etc/apk/repositories
apk update
```
Private registry URL format:
```text
https://<user>:<token>@code.factoring.digital/api/packages/public/alpine/v3.24/alpine-packages
```
## Contribution
### Package Layout
Package sources live under:
```text
packaging/alpine/local/<pkgname>/
```
Local build output is written under:
```text
packages/local/<arch>/
```
Signing keys and distfiles are cached under:
```text
.cache/abuild/
.cache/apk-distfiles/
```
### Build Commands
```sh
$ mise tasks
Name Description
apk:build Build the Alpine package in Docker for the default architecture
apk:build-aarch64 Build the Alpine package in Docker for aarch64

```
`apk:build` targets `x86_64` by default. Multi-arch builds target `x86_64` and
`aarch64`:
```sh
ALPINE_ARCHES="x86_64 aarch64" mise run apk:build-all
```
Limit package selection with `ALPINE_PACKAGE` or `ALPINE_PACKAGES`:
```sh
ALPINE_PACKAGE=seaweedfs mise run apk:build
ALPINE_PACKAGES="seaweedfs other-package" mise run apk:build-all
ALPINE_PACKAGE=seaweedfs mise run apk:test-install
ALPINE_PACKAGE=greptimedb mise run apk:checksum
ALPINE_PACKAGE=greptimedb mise run apk:build
ALPINE_PACKAGE=greptimedb SKIP_BUILD=1 mise run apk:test-install
ALPINE_PACKAGE=lavinmq mise run apk:build
ALPINE_PACKAGE=lavinmq SKIP_BUILD=1 mise run apk:test-install
ALPINE_PACKAGE=gitea mise run apk:build
ALPINE_PACKAGE=gitea SKIP_BUILD=1 mise run apk:test-install
```
Override Docker cache scope:
```sh
ALPINE_APK_CACHE_SCOPE=public-alpine-packages ALPINE_PACKAGE=greptimedb mise run apk:build
ALPINE_APK_CACHE_PREFIX=alpine-apk-ci ALPINE_PACKAGE=greptimedb mise run apk:build
```
Local packages use `local` as the default package metadata identity. Override it
when needed:
```sh
PACKAGER="Example Builder <builder@example.com>" ALPINE_PACKAGE=seaweedfs mise run apk:build
```
Open an Alpine package build shell:
```sh
ALPINE_PACKAGE=seaweedfs mise run apk:shell
```
Run the install test:
```sh
mise run apk:test-install
```
Reuse existing local packages:
```sh
SKIP_BUILD=1 mise run apk:test-install
SKIP_BUILD=1 mise run apk:test-shell
```
`apk:test-shell` opens an Alpine shell with the local APK repository configured.
Install whichever built packages you want inside the container:
```sh
apk add seaweedfs seaweedfs-master-openrc
weed version
apk add greptimedb greptimedb-docs greptimedb-standalone-openrc
greptime --version
```
Run package-local runtime tests:
```sh
mise run apk:runtime-test
ALPINE_PACKAGE=seaweedfs mise run apk:runtime-test
ALPINE_VERSION=3.24 mise run apk:runtime-test
```
### Adding Packages
Package path:
```text
packaging/alpine/local/<pkgname>/
```
Optional package hooks:
```text
packaging/alpine/local/<pkgname>/scripts/test-install.sh
packaging/alpine/local/<pkgname>/scripts/update-generated-sources.sh
packaging/alpine/local/<pkgname>/scripts/runtime-test.sh
```
Start from the blueprint:
```text
packaging/alpine/blueprint/
```
### Generated Package Sources
Generated package sources live next to the package `APKBUILD`:
```text
packaging/alpine/local/seaweedfs/example-*.toml
packaging/alpine/local/seaweedfs/weed.bash-completion
```
Refresh generated sources:
```sh
mise run apk:update-generated
ALPINE_PACKAGE=seaweedfs mise run apk:update-generated
mise run apk:checksum
```
### Upstream Update Visibility
Check whether packaged upstream versions are current:
```sh
mise run apk:outdated
ALPINE_PACKAGE=seaweedfs mise run apk:outdated
```
By default this is a warning-only signal. To make outdated or unknown package
versions fail the command:
```sh
APK_UPDATE_CHECK_MODE=fail mise run apk:outdated
```
### Gitea Workflow
`.gitea/workflows/build.yml` builds and publishes `v3.24`. Pull requests
build only.
Repository variables:
```text
INSTANCE_URL=https://code.factoring.digital
PACKAGE_OWNER=public
PACKAGE_NAME=alpine-packages
```
Repository secrets:
```text
PACKAGE_USER=<gitea package publisher>
PACKAGE_TOKEN=<token with package write access>
```
Check the workflow locally:
```sh
mise run gitea-workflow-build
```
Publish local packages:
```sh
INSTANCE_URL=https://code.factoring.digital \
PACKAGE_OWNER=public \
PACKAGE_NAME=alpine-packages \
PACKAGE_USER=... \
PACKAGE_TOKEN=... \
mise run apk:publish-gitea
```
### Checklist
Before opening a PR, run:
```sh
mise run apk:publish-check
mise run gitea-workflow-build
mise run apk:test-install
mise run apk:runtime-test
```
Then test at least one installed role in the package shell:
```sh
mise run apk:test-shell
apk add seaweedfs seaweedfs-master-openrc
rc-service seaweedfs.master start
weed version
```
