Repology

Build Status Coverage Status Code Health

Example report

Repology tracks and compares package versions along multiple repositories including Arch, Chocolatey, Debian, Fedora, FreeBSD, Gentoo, Mageia, OpenBSD, OpenSUSE, pkgsrc, Sisyphus, SlackBuilds, Ubuntu and more.

Uses

  • Users:
    • Compare completeness and freshness of package repositories, choose most up to date distro
    • Find out what repositories contain newest versions of packages you need
  • Package/port maintainers:
    • Another way to track new releases of software you package
    • Compete with other distros in keeping up to date
    • Find fellow maintainers to resolve packaging problems together
    • Keep package naming and versioning schemes in sync to other repos for your and your user's convenience
  • Software authors:
    • Keep track of how well your project is packaged
    • Keep in touch with your product package maintainers
    • If you're not using semantic versioning yet, see how useful it is

Status

Repology is currently in an early phase of development, with a goal of creating usable utility in a quick and dirty way. For now, it is usable in two modes: as a command line generator of single HTML report and a static website generator for repology.org.

Repository support

As much data as possible is parsed from each repo. Package name and version are always parsed.

(1) Gentoo support is not complete, complex cases like condional downloads and licenses are ignored for now.

(2) WWWs are autogenerated for upstream package repos like CPAN, PyPi and Hackage

Reading the report

Report is HTML table, columns correspond to repositories and rows correspond to packages. Cells hold package versions, highlighted as follows:

  • cyan: package is only present in a single repo: nothing to compare version to, and may be local artifact
  • green: package up to date
  • red: package outdated (there's newer version in some other repo)
  • yellow: there are multiple packages some of which are up to date and others are outdated
  • gray: version was manually ignored, likely because of broken versioning scheme

Note that there may be multiple packages of a same name in a single repo (either naturally, or because of name transformations).
