# Create mirror for StarlingX
## Step 0 - Build the container
Build the docker image on your Linux host (with Docker supported). **NOTE**: if necessary you might have to set http/https proxy in your Dockerfile before building the docker image below.
```
$ docker build -t <your_docker_image_name>:<your_image_version> -f Dockerfile .
```
## Step 1 - Run the container
The container shall be run from the same directory where the other scripts are stored.
```
$ docker run -it -v $(pwd):/localdisk <your_docker_image_name>:<your_image_version>
```
The container can also be run the following way, so the `download_mirror.sh` runs automatically without having to enter the container and the step 2can be simplified.
```
$ docker run -it -v $(pwd):/localdisk <your_docker_image_name>:<your_image_version> download_mirror.sh
```
As `/localdisk` is defined as the workdir of the container, the same folder name should be used to define the volume. The container will start to run and populate a `logs` and `output` folders in this directory.
The container shall be run from the same directory where the other scripts are stored.
## step 2 - Run the `download_mirror.sh` script
Once inside the container run the downloader script
```
$ ./download_mirror.sh
```
NOTE: in case there are some downloading failures due to network instability (or timeout),
you should download them manually, to assure you get all RPMs listed in "rpms_from_3rd_parties.lst" and "rpms_from_centos_repo.lst".
## step 3 - Copy the files to the mirror
After all downloading complete, copy the download files to mirror.
```
$ find ./output -name "*.i686.rpm" | xargs rm -f
$ chown 751:751 -R ./output
$ cp -rf output/stx-r1/ <your_mirror_folder>/
```
In this case `<your_mirror_folder>` can be whatever folder you want to use as mirror.
## step 4 - Tweaks in the StarlingX build system.
NOTE: step below is not needed if you've synced the latest codebase.
Go into StarlingX build system (*another* container which hosts cgcs build system), and follow up below steps:
## Debugging issues
The `download_mirror.sh` script will create log files in the form of `centos_rpms_*.txt`. After the download is complete, it's recommended to check the content of these files to see if everything was downloaded correctly.
A quick look into these files could be:
```
$ cd output/
$ cat *missing*
```
In this case, there shoudn't be any package in the "missing" files.
