Atomicrocketturtle.com: Getting started
Contents |
Overview
Atomicrocketturtle.com (ART) is a project aimed at creating RPM's and add-ons for the Plesk Server Administrator (PSA) environment. Packages are distributed through a yum archive: http://www.atomicorp.com/channels/. The archive is broken out into a 3 level heirarchy:
[atomic] - Stable packages are maintained in this channel. For the vast majority of users, this is the only channel you will likely need to have configured on your system.
[atomic-testing] - Packages going through QA, sometimes newer packages may be available in this channel. It is generally used as a storage location for packages that are almost done, but still have some major issues with integration remaining.
[atomic-bleeding] - Untested/Known bad packages, this channel is seldom used these days.

Packages Supported Policy
The [atomic] archive maintains, for the most part, updates relevant to server environments. For about 50% of the packages in the archive, these are backports from the latest Fedora to CentOS, other packages are relevant to the Plesk environment. Attempts are made to reduce the number of tertiary dependency updates required for an upgrade of a major component. A short list of major packages supported at their latest stable revisions in [atomic] are:
- php
- mysql
- spamassassin
- clamav
- razor-agents
- dcc
- pyzor
- qmail-scanner
Setup and Installation
The [atomic] archive can be set up with the following installer, or manually:
wget -O - http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic |sh
The atomic installer includes features beyond configuring just the atomic archive. It will additionally:
- Install/Configure yum and its dependencies. This is frequently removed from VPS systems.
- Prompt RHEL 4 and 5 users to convert to CentOS 4 or 5. This is done for those users that do not have valid RHEL subscriptions.
- Install/Configure the atomic.repo for the system
- Prompt to install the Plesk yum repository maintained by ART
Listing Available Packages
Packages available in the archive can be extracted with:
yum list
A web based interface for yum is also available for Plesk users, called "atomic-yum". It can be installed with:
yum install atomic-yum
