Installing private DEB packages with APT

Your secret Repository URL

The secret repository URL is the APT endpoint for your Gemfury account and packages. Do not share this URL to keep your account private. Your Repo-URL has the following format:

https://TOKEN@apt.fury.io/USERNAME/

Setting up APT with Editor Text ( any one )

To install your packages, you’ll need to configure APT to access your Gemfury repository.

For this, create a fury.list file in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory. You will need sudo access to make these changes.

Here is a basic template for /etc/apt/sources.list.d/fury.list:

deb [trusted=yes] https://TOKEN@apt.fury.io/USERNAME/ /

Or use this “one-liner”:

echo "deb [trusted=yes] https://TOKEN@apt.fury.io/USERNAME/ /" > \
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/fury.list

At the moment, Gemfury does not support GPG-signed Release file. The [trusted=yes] parameter is important to tell APT to trust this repo without a signature. We will update this help page once GPG support is available.
