# Mirror Checker
|
|
|
|
This mirror status checker determines whether CSC mirror is up-to-date with upstream.
|
|
|
|
## How To Run
|
|
|
|
A configuration file may be provided through standard input. Without a configuration file, execute `python main.py`. By default, all the available distributions will be checked. With a configuration file, execute `python main.py < name_of_config_file.in`, for example, `python main.py < example.in`. In this case, only the distributions listed in the configuration file will be checked.

|
if we can just view their repo online, we only have to remember the link for their repo and then check the latest timestamp in their repo the same way we check ours
|
|
|
|
even if the date relies on a specific file in their repo, we can still find the right link for it
|
|
|
|
to find repos of the mirrored projects to check, just search "projectName mirrors"

not done:
|
|
macPorts: only distfiles has public repo, no timestamp, too large to loop through
|
|
NetBSD: http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/ has public repo, no timestamp, web directory hard to loop through, no mirror tracker
|
|
opensuse: http://download.opensuse.org/ has public repo, a possible timestamp called latest in history, our mirror doesn't have this file tho, no mirror tracker
|
|
puppylinux: https://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/ check the ISO files in the folders starting with puppy
|
|
racket: https://mirror.racket-lang.org/installers/ no public repo, no timestamp, no mirror status tracker make sure that we have the latest version number under racket-installers
|
|
x.org: https://www.x.org/releases/ no timestamp, but candidate for brute force looping since it has few folders, no status tracker
|
|
Xiph: no timestamp, too big to loop through, no status tracker
