  • ros-aur-helpers

    ROS AUR packages build helper

  • Write yourself some custom tooling to meet your needs. This is absolutely necessary & if packages are similar this can reduce updating to just running a script for 15 minutes. We in the end had multiple tools doing the PKGUBILD creation, updating & software out of date check work for us, especially the last one is important as impatient user may mislead you. Additionally to those general python scripts, I had a dir with lots of zsh & bash scripts for manual one-time changes I needed to apply to hundreds of packages. https://github.com/ros-arch/ros-aur-helpers https://github.com/ros-arch/arch_ros_package_monitor https://github.com/ros-arch/ros-build-tools

  • arch_ros_package_monitor

    A small package to get an overview of Archlinux ROS packages

  • abs_cd

    CI/CD for the Arch build system with webinterface.

  • Get a CI to check if pkg build in clean environments. So many users will falsely report broken packages while they simply ran makepkg in their arch installation & the build system pulls crap from it into the build process & it fails despite your pkg being fine. It's a shame every AUR helper except aurutils still doesn't support building in clean chroots, but you can't change that. I build https://github.com/bionade24/abs_cd for that, which end the end served a custom repo easing the installation for users, too. There are plenty alternatives to my SW out there, too.

  • aurpublish

    PKGBUILD management framework for the Arch User Repository

  • Another cool tools is aurpublish. This allows you to simply have one git repo that has your PKGBUILDs and you can update them to the aur with a simple `aurpublish . I use this for my personal PKGBUILDS: https://github.com/acxz/pkgbuilds and for smaller projects with less than 30ish packages like https://github.com/acxz/gazebo-arch/ and https://github.com/rocm-arch/rocm-arch/. and of course for projects that have larger amount of PKGBUILDS just mirroring them int their own github organization like ros-noetic is the way to go.

  • pkgbuilds

    PKGBUILDs for Arch Linux (by acxz)

  • .

  • gazebo-arch

    A collection of Arch Linux PKGBUILDS for the Gazebo Simulator

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
