Mirrors are web and FTP servers that mirror repos from the official repo web server.

# Usage
To use a mirror with `mp`, change the repo URI for the target repo in your `mp`
configuration file (`/etc/mp/cfg`). 

### Creating a mirror
To create a mirror you can use the `matter-mirror` tool. This tool is a part of the [MatterLinux `tools`
project](https://git.matterlinux.xyz/matter/tools). These tools can be installed with the `tools`
package in the desktop repo.

After installing `matter-mirror`, specify an URI and an output directory (files will be downloaded
into the output directory). For example to mirror the `base` repo from 
`https://24.matterlinux.xyz/base` to `base_mirror` directory:
```
$ mkdir base_mirror
$ matter-mirror -u https://24.matterlinux.xyz/base -o base_mirror 
```

To serve the mirror, you can setup a web server such as `nginx`, or you can setup a FTP 
server such as `pure-ftpd`.

You will mostly likely want to update your mirror every once in a while. To do so you can 
create a cron job. For example to update your mirror every day at 00:00, you can add the
following entry to your `/etc/crontab`:
```
0 0     * * *   <user>    matter-mirror -u <url> -o <output dir path> 
```

# List
This section contains information about different MatterLinux repo and mirros 
that you can use. To add your mirror to this list get in contact with the maintainer/developers.
