Mirroring

Mirroring Information

Requirements

  • At least 100mbit bandwidth available, preferably 1gbit.
  • 500gb of storage
  • Must be hosted at a professional hosting facility (datacenter, colocation facility, ISP, fibre hotel, university, etc).

Techincal Information

All mirrors must be able to serve files over https, and either rsync or ftp.

Example rsyncd configuration:

[mirror]
path = /data/mirror
hosts allow = *
list = true
uid = root
gid = root
read only = true

Example nginx configuration:

server {
    listen [::]:80;
    listen 80;
    server_name mirror.example.org;
    location / {
        rewrite     ^   https://$server_name$request_uri? permanent;
    }
}

server {
    listen [::]:443 ssl;
    listen 443 ssl;
    server_name mirror.example.org;

    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/mirror.example.org/fullchain.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/mirror.example.org/privkey.pem;

    root /data/mirror;
}

Example mirroring crontab:

*/15 * * * * * rsync -avh --delete rsync://mirror-sync.lineageos.org/mirror /path/to/your/mirror/folder
