Currently supported media types +are: local drives, removable drives (such as CDs), and networked media via +different protocols (http, ftp, ssh and rsync). One of the following modes +must be chosen: + +=over + +=item B<urpmi.addmedia> [I<options>] --distrib --mirrorlist [<I<url>>] + +A mirror list is a special API to describe mirrors available. urpmi will pick +the nearest mirror, and will dynamically handle new mirrors. Example: + + urpmi.addmedia --distrib --mirrorlist + +=item B<urpmi.addmedia> [I<options>] --mirrorlist <I<url>> <I<name>> <I<relative path>> + +Example: + + urpmi.addmedia --mirrorlist '$MIRRORLIST' backports media/main/backports + +=item B<urpmi.addmedia> [I<options>] <I<name>> http://<I<login>>:<I<pass>>@<I<host>>/<I<path>> + +where <I<name>> is a human-readable name for the new media (e.g. +"updates"). <I<name>> is optional if B<--distrib> is given in the options +list. <I<host>>/<I<path>> is the location of the media directory on the +net (e.g. C<media/main>). The location is given relative to +<I<path>>. B<curl> is used by default to download files, B<wget> may be +used if B<curl> is not installed or if or B<--wget> is given in +I<options>. Example: + + urpmi.addmedia http http://jpackage.sf.net/rpm/free + +=item B<urpmi.addmedia> [I<options>] <I<name>> ftp://<I<login>>:<I<pass>>@<I<host>>/<I<path>> + +The same as for http. Add your login and password if required (note that +you don't need to specify B<anonymous> as login for anonymous access ftp +servers). If B<wget> is used to download files with a firewall you may +have to ensure that the B<passive_ftp> option is on in B</etc/wgetrc> +(that's usually the default). Example: + + urpmi.addmedia ftp ftp://a:a@leia//export/media/main + +=item B<urpmi.addmedia> [I<options>] <I<name>> ssh://<I<login>>@<I<host>>/<I<path>> + +The same as for http and ftp; add your login and password if required. You +may want to export the public key in order not to have to type your +password. rsync over an ssh connection will be used to get files. urpmi +will try to re-use the same ssh connection over multiple invocations. + +Example: + + urpmi.addmedia ssh ssh://fpons@bi/c/i586/media/main + +=item B<urpmi.addmedia> [I<options>] <I<name>> rsync://<I<login>>@<I<host>>:<I<port>>/<I<path>> + +The same as for http; you can use the <I<host>>::<I<path>> syntax too. Example: + + urpmi.addmedia rsync rsync://ftp.orst.edu::mandrake-devel/contrib/ppc + +=item B<urpmi.addmedia> [I<options>] <I<name>> file://<I<path>> + +where <I<name>> is a human-readable name for the new media (e.g. +"local updates"). <I<path>> is the location of the media directory on your +machine (e.g. C<media/main>). + +=item B<urpmi.addmedia> [I<options>] <I<name>> cdrom://<I<path>> + +<I<path>> is the location of the media directory in the CDROM or DVD. + +=back + +=head1 OPTIONS + +=over + +=item B<--wget> + +Use wget only for downloading distant files. By default curl is used if +available. + +=item B<--curl> + +Use curl only for downloading distant files. This is the default if curl +is available. + +=item B<--curl-options> I<'options'> + +=item B<--rsync-options> I<'options'> + +=item B<--wget-options> I<'options'> + +Specify additional command-line options to be passed to curl, rsync or +wget when retrieving files. If several options are to be passed, separate +them with spaces and enclose them in quotes. + +Note that the rsync options will also be used for ssh media. + +=item B<--limit-rate I<rate>> + +Try to limit the download speed, I<rate> is given in bytes/sec. This option +is not active by default. + +=item B<--proxy> I<proxyhost[:port|1080]> + +Use specified HTTP proxy. + +=item B<--proxy-user> I<user:password> + +Use specified user and password to use for proxy authentication. +Specifying B<--proxy-user=ask> will cause C<urpmi.addmedia> to prompt for a +username and a password. + +=item B<--update> + +Adds a media which will be taken into account by B<MageiaUpdate> or by +C<urpmi --update> when looking for updates. + +If used together with B<--distrib>, it will only add media flagged "update". + +=item B<--xml-info> + +Use the specific policy for downloading xml info files. +It must be one of: never, on-demand, update-only, always. +See urpmi.cfg(5) for more information. + +=item B<--probe-synthesis> + +Use synthesis file. + +=item B<--probe-rpms> + +Use rpm files (instead of synthesis). + +=item B<--mirrorlist> + +Use the given url as a mirror list. It is quite special, please see examples +at the beginning of this page. + +You can also give a space seperated list of urls. Each url can be either a +mirrorlist or a mirror url. This is useful if you have a mirror to use inside +a local network, but still use standard mirrors when the local mirror is not +available. + + +nb: $MIRRORLIST is a special variable which gives the default URL for the +current distribution/arch. $MIRRORLIST is the default mirrorlist. + +=item B<--zeroconf> + +Find a media repository for the current distribution using zeroconf (DNS-SD). +It can be used together with B<--distrib> or by specifying a media name and a +path to the media directory, relative to the repository root. + +=item B<--distrib> + +Retrieve a set of media from a distribution. Typically, the URL provided +to C<urpmi.addmedia> will represent the parent directory of a directory +B<media>, which in turn will contain various subdirectories for each +medium of the distribution. <I<name>> is combined with medium names found +to create newer medium names in the urpmi database. + +=item B<--interactive> + +This option is to be used with B<--distrib>. With it, C<urpmi.addmedia> +will ask for confirmation for each media it finds for the specified +distribution. + +=item B<--all-media> + +This option is to be used with B<--distrib>. With it, C<urpmi.addmedia> +will attempt to add all media it finds. By default, it won't add media +containing source rpms, or media corresponding to supplementary CD-ROMs +on distributions. + +=item B<--urpmi-root> I<directory> + +Use the file system tree rooted for urpmi database and rpm install. Contrary +to B<--root>, the urpmi configuration comes from the rooted tree. + +=item B<--wait-lock> + +If the urpmi or rpm db is busy, wait until it is available + +=item B<--virtual> + +Creates a virtual medium: the medium is always up-to-date and so it does not +need to be updated by C<urpmi.update>. + +=item B<--raw> + +Add the new media in the urpmi configuration file, but don't update it nor +proceed to any download. The media, to be usable, will need to be updated +with C<urpmi.update>; it's ignored until then. + +=item B<--nopubkey> + +Don't import pubkey of added media. + +=back + +=head1 Variables + +Beginning with urpmi 4.6.16, you can use variables in media URLs (for +example F</mnt/mirror/$RELEASE/$ARCH/media/main>). The variables supported +so far are: + +=over + +=item B<$ARCH> + +The architecture (if found in F</etc/release>). + +=item B<$RELEASE> + +The OS release (if found in F</etc/release>; its value should be B<cauldron> +on a Mageia cauldron system.) + +=item B<$HOST> + +The canonical hostname of the machine urpmi runs on. + +=item B<$MIRRORLIST> + +The url of the default mirrorlist for the distribution. + +=back + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +urpmi(8), urpmi.update(8), urpmi.removemedia(8), urpmf(8), urpmq(8), urpmi.files(5). + +=head1 Author + +Pascal Rigaux <pixel@mandriva.com> (original author and current maintainer), +FranE<ccedil>ois Pons, Rafael Garcia-Suarez |
