With contribution of sinsong, we now have our own pkg search web, you can find it here.

The frontend service is written in Vue providing web.

The backend service is written in Lua providing API.

API of our repo is also provided. bioarchlinux.org/api/pkglist.json is the list of all pkgs in our repo. bioarchlinux.org/api/${pkgname}.json is every single pkg’s info.

Today, repology added our repo into their map, can you find it?

Today, we first release our weekly junest image, everyone can use it for non-root user on Arch Linux and other non-archlinux distro families.

For using the junest, you can check the README page of the junest project.

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BioArchLinux/junest-img/main/biojunest.sh
chmod +x biojunest.sh && ./biojunest.sh

Then enjoy it

sudoj pacman -Syu
sudoj pacman -S foo

Today, we first release our monthly iso image, everyone can use it just like using archiso, however, the only difference is that you need to replace base with base-bio.

For using the iso, you can check the README page of the iso project.

Again, this iso is not a joke.

These days, WSL annd Docker have lauched.

For WSL you can get at wsl folder of repository to access the tar file.

For Docker, you can just docker run -it bioarchlinux/bioarchlinux /bin/bash to use it.

Docker image updates daily and wsl image updates weekly.

Now we have our own mediawiki site, all the items related with bioinformatics is welcomed and registeration is open.

For maintainers, the build status site is lauched, and you can check if the recent package passed or not, also, you can access the full log in this website to check if there is any specific problems.

Now BioArchLinux has the GPG keyring package called bioarchlinux-keyring and we have our mirrorlist package called bioarchlinux-mirrorlist.

Now add repository just need to add our repository information to /etc/pacman.conf and then pacman -Sy && pacman -S bioarchlinux-keyring then you can use our repository.

You can edit /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.bio to use the mirror you want to use.

Now the db name of BioArchLinux has changed o bioarchlinux, please replace [BioArchLinux] with [bioarchlinux] in /etc/pacman.conf

Thanks go to xTom and Nanjing University, now there are four mirror sites around the world.

pkgs.org is a web to show packages from different distributions and repository, now pkgs.org include our repository.
