Hey guys, I've been asked how to make a Cydia repo for awhile. So I decide to make a tut for every one! enjoy!

How to Make a Cydia Repo

Skill Level Needed
3



What's Needed to make one
Computer
internet
some server knowledge
Server maker
20-40 mins
FTP Server (Not Needed but you can uses it if you would like)


Installation
Download Sourcemaker [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
NOTE*** Some antivirus programs delete it, this is because of the lack of people using it. There is NO Virus in it. If you don't believe me then Google it and download from somewhere else*** download and install it


After Installation
once it has installed you should get a screen like this
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Its in French but it basically says thanks for downloading and all that. Ok Click the bigger button on the left, the one on the right just takes you to there site


Starting options
once you have clicked that option a screen like this should show up
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
the top line asks what you want to name the repo
and the Bigger box is the description, you can add a picture if you want now or later once done hit next


Setting up the source
after hitting next this screen will appear
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
if you have an FTP server and want to use that click the picture with a Globe (says FTP under it) if you don't have a FTP server or don't want to use your own choose the one with an IPhone in the picture


If you have your own FTP server
This is what will appear if you click the world
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
first line says server
second line says username
third password and port
the forth says folder path where you will have the .deb files
fifth URL
press tirminer


Don't have FTP server
sign up
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
top line is the nd of the url, where it says example
then email, pass and write your pass again


Once Done those steps
you can upload .deb files and add the url to cydia





Congratz you have your own Cydia Repo!
I'll be making another tut on this, it will be easier!

Nice tutorial, didn't know how to set up my own custom ftp server.
I've been using myrepospace for a while, since its so easy to use. But its annoying that you need to have "myrepospace" in the source.
So I'm gonna test this, good job!
