# How to configure APT repository for RELIANOID Community Edition

## Overview

This guide explains how to configure the public APT repository for installing and keeping your RELIANOID Community Edition up to date. If you are using the Enterprise Edition, please use the official channels or contact our support team.

This procedure has been tested on Debian Bookworm, the base version for RELIANOID >= 7.

## Setting Up the RELIANOID APT Repository

### Install the APT GPG Key

To ensure package authenticity and security, install the RELIANOID APT GPG key by running the following commands:

```
wget https://repo.relianoid.com/ce/v7/pool/main/r/relianoid-archive-keyring/relianoid-archive-keyring_1.2_all.deb
dpkg -i relianoid-archive-keyring_1.2_all.deb
```

### Configure the APT Repository

Create a new source file to configure the RELIANOID repository.

**Verify the Configuration**
 Ensure the repository is correctly set up by checking the source list file:

```
cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/relianoid.list
```

The file should contain the following entry:

```
deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/relianoid.gpg] https://repo.relianoid.com/ce/v7 bookworm main
```

### Update the Package List

After configuring the repository, update the local package index:

```
noid-updater
```

(formerly /usr/local/relianoid/bin/checkupdates)

### Upgrade RELIANOID Packages

To install or upgrade the RELIANOID Community Edition, execute:

```
noid-updater -i
```

(formerly /usr/local/relianoid/bin/checkupdates -i)

### Install RELIANOID

For a fresh installation, run:

```
apt-get install relianoid
apt-get install relianoid-gui
```

Your **RELIANOID Community Edition** is now ready to use!

## Additional Notes

RELIANOID depends on some packages from Debian's public repositories. Ensure that additional Debian repositories are properly configured for your Debian version.

For example, a proper **/etc/apt/sources.list** configuration for Debian Bookworm should include:

```
deb  http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb  http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm-updates main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb  http://security.debian.org/debian-security bookworm-security main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
```

## RELIANOID Community Edition Package Updates

The RELIANOID APT repository is automatically updated whenever new changes are pushed to the public GitHub repository:

[https://github.com/relianoid/adc-loadbalancer](https://github.com/relianoid/adc-loadbalancer)

If any updates occur in the source code, a new RELIANOID Debian package is generated and published in the APT repository automatically.

By following these steps, you ensure your RELIANOID installation is always up to date with the latest community-maintained improvements and security updates.
