About OEPKGS⚓︎

OEPKGS is Open External Packages Service

OEPKGS was jointly initiated and supported by the Institute of Software Chinese, Academy of Sciences, Nanjing Institute of Software Technology, openEuler Community to meet the management needs of basic software security, reliability, compliance and technical needs such as code hosting, building, integration, and release.

By using the oepkgs open source software infrastructure components, the oepkgs community provides free software package and container image building, distribution, and download services for individual developers, open source communities, OSVs, and ISVs.

Currently, the oepkgs platform combines the official software repository of openEuler and the oepkgs community openEuler extended repository, providing software package services for the openEuler ecosystem and providing support and assurance for existing operating systems to migrate to the openEuler ecosystem.

Community Services⚓︎

  • Intelligent Building System
    • An innovative, free, open source system that builds binary packages automatically and reproducibly from source code. oepkgs is preparing to introduce RPM package building capabilities for openEuler.
    • We will continue to conduct research on building, expanding the range of building versions and types, and adding support for features such as testing, signing, and more risk checks. Stay tuned for updates.
  • Hosted Release Service
    • A convenient service for developers that will soon support container hosting. Here, you can manage container repositories, upload images, search and pull images.
    • Of course, our goal is not only this. We are researching reliable release guidelines and working towards hosting and releasing development achievements, building a sustainable open source ecosystem.
  • Security Integration
    • Provides more open source software security, compliance, and maintainability risk assessments.
    • In the future, we will provide more customized inspection plans, including uploading source code and artifacts to generate security analysis reports directly.
  • Software Package Service
    • By collecting, cleaning, and synchronizing massive amounts of open source ecosystem data, we have formed a vast data marketplace.
    • We work closely with openEuler and currently support software package services for various official and extended warehouses of openEuler, including search services and security risk analysis services.

Organization and Operation⚓︎

  • Jointly initiated and supported by the Institute of Software Chinese Academy of Sciences and openEuler Community, it aims to provide free software package and container image building, distribution, and download services for individual developers, open source communities, OSVs, and ISVs.
  • oepkgs platform and related components are open source on the Gitee repository.
  • The hosted software packages are not limited to open source software.
  • Binary and non-free software packages are allowed to be distributed as long as they comply with open source and other rules.
  • Software package distribution must comply with the rules of the target distribution and other repositories, and must be compatible with the base repository.

Vision⚓︎

Establish an advanced standard system for open source software and its supply chain, an open source security evaluation system, and support the development of the core IT industry and the open source industry in China.
