yum-fedora Cookbook

The yum-fedora cookbook takes over management of the default repository ids that ship with Fedora systems. It provides custom resources for fedora, fedora-debuginfo, fedora-source, updates, updates-debuginfo, updates-source, updates-testing, updates-testing-debuginfo, and updates-testing-source.

Migration

This cookbook no longer ships recipes or attributes. See migration.md for the breaking change guide.

Usage

Manage the default Fedora repositories:

yum_fedora_repositories 'default'

Manage and enable an optional repository:

yum_fedora_repository 'updates-testing' do
  managed true
  enabled true
end

Uncommonly used repository ids are not managed by default. This speeds up integration testing pipelines by avoiding yum-cache builds for repositories that are rarely used. To manage and enable every Fedora repository:

yum_fedora_repositories 'all' do
  manage_debuginfo true
  manage_source true
  manage_testing true
  enable_debuginfo true
  enable_source true
  enable_testing true
end

More Examples

Point the fedora and updates repositories at an internally hosted server.

yum_fedora_repository 'fedora' do
  mirrorlist nil
  baseurl 'https://internal.example.com/fedora/$releasever/os/$basearch'
  sslverify false
end

yum_fedora_repository 'updates' do
  mirrorlist nil
  baseurl 'https://internal.example.com/fedora/$releasever/updates/$basearch'
  sslverify false
end
