6 flatpak-remote - Configuration for a remote
7
9 Flatpak stores information about configured remotes for an installation
10 location in $installation/repo/config. For example, the remotes for the
11 default system-wide installation are in
12 $prefix/var/lib/flatpak/repo/config, and the remotes for the per-user
13 installation are in $HOME/.local/share/flatpak/repo/config.
14
15 Normally, it is not necessary to edit remote config files directly, the
16 flatpak remote-modify command should be used to change properties of
17 remotes.
18
19 System-wide remotes can be statically preconfigured by dropping
20 flatpakref files into /etc/flatpak/remotes.d/.
21
23 The remote config file format is using the same .ini file format that
24 is used for systemd unit files or application .desktop files.
25
26 [remote ...]
27 All the configuration for the the remote with name NAME is contained in
28 the [remote "NAME"] group.
29
30 The following keys are recognized by OSTree, among others:
31
32 url (string)
33 The url for the remote. An URL of the form oci+https:// or
34 oci+http:// is a Flatpak extension that indicates that the remote
35 is not an ostree repository, but is rather an URL to an index of
36 OCI images that are stored within a container image registry.

39 Whether to use GPG verification for content from this remote.
40

42 Whether to use GPG verification for the summary of this remote.
43
44 This is ignored if collection-id is set, as refs are verified in
45 commit metadata in that case. Enabling gpg-verify-summary would
46 break peer to peer distribution of refs.
47
