How to configure system to use the FIWARE yum repository?

Question

I know that FI-WARE offers a public yum repository at http://repositories.testbed.fiware.org/ that can be used to install FI-WARE packages such as Orion contexto Broker.

However, how can I configure my system to use that repository? E.g. which .conf file I need to add in my /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory to make it work.

Thanks!

You need to add a file fiware.repo in /etc/yum.repos.d/ with the following lines:

[fiware]
name=Fiware Repository
baseurl=http://repositories.lab.fiware.org/repo/rpm/$releasever
gpgcheck=0
enabled=1

I hope it helps you.

EDIT: originally, baseurl were http://repositories.lab.fiware.org/repo/rpm/x86_64/. That is still working, but the correct one since April 2016 uses $releasever. In addition, /x86_64 has been removed.

EDIT: originally, the name was repositories.testbed.fiware.org but it changed to repositories.lab.fiware.org on Feburary 2016.
