## Abstract | ||
|
||
Conda packages need to be stored in the same directory as `repodata.json`. | ||
|
||
This can be inconvenient especially when using alternative `repodata.json` for | ||
the same set of packages. For example, a user might be interested in installing | ||
packages based on an older snapshot of the index data that points to packages | ||
from the original index. Or a user might want to subset `repodata.json` based on | ||
policy. | ||
|
||
## Specification | ||
|
||
A minimal `repodata.json` looks like this. | ||
|
||
``` | ||
{"info": {"subdir": "linux-64"}, | ||
"packages": {}, | ||
"packages.conda": {"package-name.conda":{...}}, | ||
"removed": [], | ||
"repodata_version": 1} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Add `base_url` to the `info` object. Increment `repodata_version`. | ||
|
||
``` | ||
{"info": {"subdir": "...", "base_url":"https://repo.anaconda.com/repo/main/linux-64/"}, | ||
"packages": {}, | ||
"packages.conda": {"package-name.conda":{...}}, | ||
"removed": [], | ||
"repodata_version": 2} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Append `base_url` and `package-name.conda` when downloading a package. | ||
|
||
`base_url` can be an absolute or a relative URL. | ||
|
||
In the absence of `base_url`, packages are loaded relative to the | ||
`repodata.json`. Index data without the new `base_url` will continue to have | ||
`"repodata_version": 1`, but index data including `base_url` will have | ||
`"repodata_version": 2`. | ||
