Vieter

Documentation

I host documentation for Vieter over at https://rustybever.be/docs/vieter/.

Overview

Vieter is a restart of the Pieter project. The goal is to create a simple, lightweight self-hostable Arch repository server, paired with a system that periodically builds & publishes select Arch packages. This would allow me to build AUR packages (or PKGBUILDs I created myself) "in the cloud" & make sure I never have to compile anything on my own systems, making my updates a lot quicker.

Why V?

I chose V as I've been very intrigued by this language for a while now. I wanted a fast language that I could code while relaxing, without having to exert too much mental effort & V seemed like the right choice for that.

Custom Compiler

Currently, this program only works with a very slightly modified version of the V standard library, and therefore the compiler. The source code for this fork can be found here. You can obtain this modified version of the compiler by running make v, which will clone & build the compiler. Afterwards, all make commands that require the V compiler will use this new binary. I try to keep this fork as up to date with upstream as possible.

Features

  • Arch repository server
    • Support for multiple repositories & multiple architectures
    • Endpoints for publishing new packages
    • API for managing repositories to build
  • Build system
    • Periodic rebuilding of packages
    • Prevent unnecessary rebuilds

Building

In order to build Vieter, you'll need a couple of libraries:

  • gc
  • libarchive
  • openssl

Before building Vieter, you'll have to build the compiler using make v. Afterwards, run make to build the debug binary.
