Features

• Sorting
  • Completion - The number of mirror checks (as a percentage) that have successfully connected and disconnected from the given URL. If this is below 100%, the mirror may be unreliable.
  • Score - It is currently calculated as (hours delay + average duration + standard deviation) / completion percentage. Lower is better.
  • Standard deviation - The standard deviation of the connect and retrieval time. A high standard deviation can indicate an unstable or overloaded mirror.
  • Delay - The mean value of last check − last sync for each check of this mirror URL. Due to the timing of mirror checks, any value under one hour should be viewed as ideal.
  • Rate - sort by download speed
• Filtering
  • Age
  • Country
  • ipv4, ipv6, isos
  • Protocol - http, https, ftp or rsync
  • Completion Percentage

Getting Started

Installation

Install from the Arch Linux official repository:

pacman -S mirro-rs

mirro-rs is also available in the AUR. If you're using paru:

paru -S mirro-rs-git

Note By default, this enables configuration through toml files. You should edit the PKGBUILD if you prefer another configuration format (or to disable configuration files altogether).

Manual Compilation

• cargo

  You need to have cargo installed to build the application. The easiest way to set this up is installing rustup.

  pacman -S rustup
  

  Install a rust toolchain:

  rustup install stable
  

• git

  Clone the repository:

  git clone https://github.com/rtkay123/mirro-rs
  

  You may then build the release target:

cargo build --release

Usage

Pass the -h or --help flag to mirro-rs to view configuration parameters. To preview http or https mirrors that were successfully synchronised in the last 24 hours and use /home/user/mirrorlist as an export location for the best (at max) 50:

mirro-rs --export 50 --protocols https --protocols http --age 24 --outfile "/home/user/mirrorlist"

To do the same but restrict the sources to be from France and the UK:

mirro-rs --export 50 --protocols https --protocols http --age 24 --outfile "/home/user/mirrorlist" -c France -c "United Kingdom"

Configuration

For convenience, mirro-rs optionally supports reading a configuration [default: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/mirro-rs/mirro-rs.toml] for general preferences. If none is available, [default: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/mirro-rs.toml] will be used. If both are available, the former takes priority.

For toml support:

cargo build --release --features toml

For json support:

cargo build --release --features json

Likewise, for yaml support:

cargo build --release --features yaml

Note If you enable all configuration file features, if the configuration directory contains more than one valid file format, the order of priority goes from toml -> json -> yaml.

Sample configuration files are provided in the examples folder.

A minimal mirro-rs.toml config file could look like:

cache-ttl = 24
timeout = 10

Note Changing the configuration file at runtime will overwrite the parameters that were set as CLI arguments
