Debmirror for Kubernetes

I wanted to move this off a systemd timer running on my desktop computer. So here's a collection of stuff to let you run a Debian mirror locally. It's pretty specific to my setup but maybe it's useful to someone or you want to contribute to generalise it a bit.

For Ubuntu, all supported releases will be mirrored for amd64 and arm64. For Debian, oldstable and newer will be mirrored for amd64, arm64, all and i386.

The Dockerfile here builds an image with debmirror, gpg and the keyrings set up. It's uploaded to Docker Hub by an action here.

In k8s and kustomization.yaml you've got the setup I'm using which assumes the following-

  • nginx-ingress
  • cert-manager with a ClusterIssuer called letsencrypt-production-issuer
  • A StorageClass called openebs-zfspv. I'm using OpenEBS with ZFS local storage for this.

All of that said, then a CronJob is set up to run debmirror hourly from the latest image which has been pushed from main here, and an nginx instance is also provisioned to serve it over the web.

Caveats

  • If you delete any of your PVCs then the mirror will be cleaned up. You can fix that by using a different StorageClass which doesn't do that, or by using a PersistentVolume with persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy: Retain and manually deleting the PersistentVolume when you want to clean the mirror.

TODO

  • Unhardcode the hostname (move to Helm?)
  • Unhardcode the cert-manager / load-balancer stuff
  • Unhardcode the namespace
  • Handle the storage a bit better
