stangri’s OpenWrt Packages Documentation

This is documentation for packages I’m maintaining for OpenWrt routers. While some of these are packages are already available from official OpenWrt release/snapshots repositories/feeds, my packages repo usually contains newer versions. You can also browse/check-out the source code.

How to use

On your router

The repository is currently hosted at GitHub. If you have problems accessing my packages repo or access to GitHub may be blocked at the location where your router is installed, skip to the Add Repository (jsDelivr) section. Both repositories use HTTPS protocol and require one of the SSL support packages to be installed on your router.

Add Repository (GitHub)

opkg update
opkg install wget-ssl
echo -e -n 'untrusted comment: OpenWrt usign key of Stan Grishin\nRWR//HUXxMwMVnx7fESOKO7x8XoW4/dRidJPjt91hAAU2L59mYvHy0Fa\n' > /etc/opkg/keys/7ffc7517c4cc0c56
sed -i '/stangri_repo/d' /etc/opkg/customfeeds.conf
echo 'src/gz stangri_repo https://repo.openwrt.melmac.net' >> /etc/opkg/customfeeds.conf
opkg update

Add Repository (jsDelivr)

opkg update
opkg install wget-ssl
echo -e -n 'untrusted comment: OpenWrt usign key of Stan Grishin\\nRWR//HUXxMwMVnx7fESOKO7x8XoW4/dRidJPjt91hAAU2L59mYvHy0Fa\\n' > /etc/opkg/keys/7ffc7517c4cc0c56
sed -i '/stangri_repo/d' /etc/opkg/customfeeds.conf
echo 'src/gz stangri_repo https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stangri/repo.openwrt.melmac.net' >> /etc/opkg/customfeeds.conf
opkg update

Please note that there may be delay in jsDelivr CDN cache updates comparing to my packages repo at GitHub which may cause opkg to pull older files and/or complain about wrong signature.

Image Builder (GitHub)

Add the following line:

src/gz stangri_repo https://repo.openwrt.melmac.net

to the repositories.conf file inside your Image Builder directory. You can use the following shell script code to achieve that:

sed -i '/stangri_repo/d' repositories.conf
! grep -q 'stangri_repo' repositories.conf && sed -i '4 i\src/gz stangri_repo https://repo.openwrt.melmac.net' repositories.conf

Image Builder (jsDelivr)

Add the following line:

src/gz stangri_repo https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stangri/repo.openwrt.melmac.net

to the repositories.conf file inside your Image Builder directory. You can use the following shell script code to achieve that:

sed -i '/stangri_repo/d' repositories.conf
! grep -q 'stangri_repo' repositories.conf && sed -i '4 i\src/gz stangri_repo https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stangri/repo.openwrt.melmac.net' repositories.conf

SDK

The packages source code is available in my packages source on GitHub/jsDelivr. Check out the code for the individual packages you want into your SDK’s package folder or for luci apps into the package/luci/applications folder.
