Hello,

is it possible to create a public repository on a web hosting service?

Thank you in advance.

Hi Julien,

what version of Wapt are you using, Enterprise/Discovery edition, and OS (see forum rules)?

A public repository (like the Wapt store) is simply a web share with a Packages file (generated with the `wapt-scanpackages` command). Afterward, you can add authentication to the repository, and the package signature can be validated by the console at the time of download if the public certificate is issued.

Is this for redistributing packages that you create yourself to third-party institutions?

Regards,

Denis

Hello, I

'm using WAPT 2.4.0.14080, 2.6.0.17226, and 2.6.1.17472, Discovery Edition, on Debian 12.
Yes, it's to have a shared store for multiple institutions (to avoid creating the same package 10 times).

I've managed to create a store.
Is it possible to generate the Packages file without the groups, or to generate the file from a specific folder?

Hi again Julien,

wapt-scanpackages scans all files in the directory. Simply copy the packages you want to distribute into a specific directory and run the wapt-scanpackages command in that directory.

Thanks for the feedback, I'm marking the topic as resolved. :-)

Regards,

Denis

Good morning,

I tried to create a storage using the .wapt files and the Packages file, but I get a certificate error during import even though I have disabled server certificate verification.

Hello Julien,

The wapt console checks the signature of the packages that are imported; the certificate must be added to the trusted_external_certificates directory.

@jmeyer

It would be nice to get back to you to close the thread... Some people take the time to reply, it would be the least you could do to respond...

Best regards,
Denis
