| <h3>6. Test that the mirror works<a class="headerlink" href="#test-that-the-mirror-works" title="Link to this heading"></a></h3> |
| <p>We can make buildstream use the mirror by setting the alias to an invalid URL, e.g.</p> |
| <div class="highlight-yaml notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nt">aliases</span><span class="p">:</span> |
| <span class="w"> </span><span class="nt">ftp_gnu_org</span><span class="p">:</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="l l-Scalar l-Scalar-Plain">https://www.example.com/invalid/url/</span> |
| </pre></div> |
| </div> |
| <p>Now, if you build an element that uses the source you placed in the mirror |
| (e.g. <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">bst</span> <span class="pre">build</span> <span class="pre">core-deps/gettext.bst</span></code>), you will see that it uses your mirror.</p> |
