Wally is a package manager for Roblox inspired by Cargo (Rust) and npm (JavaScript). It brings the familiar, community-oriented world of sharing code from other communities into the Roblox ecosystem.
Wally has two pieces that work together: a command line tool named wally and a registry server that hosts packages.
This repository contains an easy-to-setup registry server container that can provide a stable environment to run your own private or public repository!
The system was designed to work with the following docker-compose file:
x-watchtower-scope: &watchtower-scope
- "com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.scope=${COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME}"
services:
api:
image: ghcr.io/devsparkle/wally-backend
container_name: Wally-Backend
user: "root"
volumes:
- ./Rocket.toml:/app/Rocket.toml:ro
- packages:/app/packages
ports:
- 3049:8000
restart: unless-stopped
labels: *watchtower-scope
watchtower-service:
image: containrrr/watchtower
container_name: Wally-Watchtower
volumes:

command: --scope ${COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME}

packages:While it may be a common recommendation with the Wally community that you must use an external storage provider, such as an S3 Bucket; its my opinion and experience that as long as you follow standard backup procedures for the docker packages volume, there's no need to rely on external services.
I recommend placing port 3049 behind an HTTPS reverse-proxy with a valid certificate. This will ensure the security of your secret, which must be transmitted to download or upload a package.
