Clarity SRS (Simple Repository System)

Clarity SRS (Simple Repository System) works somewhat like a Cydia APT Repository with some changes to the layout and mapping of files.

To create your own Clarity Repository you'll need to download this GitHub Repository to get started.

Prerequisites

You'll need software to create tar.gz files and know where your tweaks will go to.

PACKAGE LISTING

To display a package in Clarity you need to layout your PACKAGES file like this

Package: sh.joseph.clarity.custom_carrier
Name: Custom Carrier
Version: 1.0
Architecture: iphoneos-arm
Description: This package allows you to set a custom carrier
Depiction: https://srs.joseph.sh/packages/custom_carrier.html
Homepage: http://srs.joseph.sh
Maintainer: Joseph Shenton <joe@joseph.sh>
Author: Joseph Shenton <joe@joseph.sh>
Section: Tweaks
Location: custom_carrier.tar.gz

Package: sh.joseph.clarity.lotus_icon_mask
Name: Lotus Icon Mask
Version: 1.0
Architecture: iphoneos-arm
Description: This package allows you to have the same icon mask in the Lotus theme.
Depiction: https://srs.joseph.sh/packages/lotus_icon_mask.html
Homepage: http://srs.joseph.sh
Maintainer: Joseph Shenton <joe@joseph.sh>

Location: lotus_icon_mask.tar.gz

If you do not layout your PACKAGES file like that you can cause issues for your user.

Repository configuration

Inside your RELEASE file you will be able to configure your repository you must lay it out like this

Origin: Clarity
Label: Clarity
Suite: stable
Version: 1.0
Codename: ios
Architectures: iphoneos-arm
Components: main
Description: This is the default repository for Clarity Package Installer.

Create a package

To create a package make a folder with the package name and then create a folder structure to where the package is installed like the lotus_icon_mask is set out.

Folder Structure: /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MobileIcons.frameworks

Once you have done that create a tar.gz file by editing packages.sh and adding your packages for instance

tar -zcvf PACAKGE_NAME.tar.gz PACKAGE_FOLDER_NAME

tar -zcvf lotus_icon_mask.tar.gz lotus_icon_mask
tar -zcvf custom_carrier.tar.gz custom_carrier

Updating Repository

To Update your repository just run update.sh in the command line
