Alpine Mirror (apk registry) in Iran

Alpine mirror (apk registry) — For Alpine updates in Iran, Rasanegaar Mirror keeps the apk registry at /apk/ close to your Docker images and small systems.

About Alpine

Alpine Linux is a small musl/apk distribution common in Docker images and appliances; every apk update moves real traffic.

main and community branches per release are pulled constantly in builds and CI; without a reachable registry, installs and upgrades from abroad drag.

  1. Back up your apk repositories file.
  2. Edit apk repositories and point them at the Rasanegaar Alpine registry (match the v3.xx branch to your release):

    /etc/apk/repositories

    https://mirror.rasanegaar.com/apk/v3.20/main

  3. Refresh the package index:

    sudo apk update

Updating Alpine in Iran

Alpine updates in Iran against the local registry usually finish faster than dl-cdn or official mirrors — especially in concurrent container builds.

After switching, keep your normal apk routine; keep the release branch (e.g. v3.xx) aligned with the installed system.
