✨ NAME ✨

okay bestie, the name is repo-tools fastly, and you're reading repo-tools-fastly(1) from the General Commands Manual. that's the whole NAME vibe β€” short, iconic, no notes. πŸ’…

πŸ’… SYNOPSIS πŸ’…

here's the exact shape, fr fr β€” copy it character-for-character:

repo-tools fastly purge pkg <--origin|--filename> [--repo=<repo>]
[--release=<release>] [--arch=<arch>] <pkg..>

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so this is the toolkit for interacting with Alpine Linux repositories hosted with fastly, the cdn behind https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org. ✨

repo-tools fastly purge purges Fastly's cache of packages by name. if a package gets rebuilt with the same name as existing before, purging it might be necessary β€” otherwise apk will complain about packages having bad signatures. 😭 no cap, that signature complaint is the whole reason you're here.

  • repo-tools fastly purge pkg --origin <pkg..> β€” purges all packages with the given origins.
  • repo-tools fastly purge pkg --filename <pkg..> β€” purges all packages with the given filenames.

πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • --arch <arch> β€” limits purging to a single arch only. one arch, that's the assignment. 🎯
  • --release <releas> β€” specifies for what release to purge the packages. defaults to edge. 🌈
  • --repo <repo> β€” specifies the repository to look for the package (main, community, testing). defaults to main. 🫢

xoxo πŸ’– your unix bestie, signing off from the 2026-10-14 edition of repo-tools-fastly(1) β€” now go purge those caches, periodt. 🫢
