Backport #38479 by @gaurav0107 Fixes #38456 ## Problem The Alpine package registry serves one `APKINDEX.tar.gz` per architecture. When a repository contains only `noarch` packages (no architecture-specific packages), only the `noarch` index is built. Because `apk` substitutes `$ARCH` with the host architecture and requests e.g. `x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz`, such a repository returned HTTP 404 and was unusable, matching the report in #38456. ## Fix `GetRepositoryFile` now falls back to the `noarch` index when the requested architecture has no index of its own, mirroring the fallback already present in the sibling `DownloadPackageFile` handler. `noarch` packages are installable on every architecture, so serving them for any requested architecture is correct. The index-build side is unchanged; only the serving path gains the fallback, so mixed repositories (which already merge `noarch` into each per-architecture index) are unaffected. ## AI assistance disclosure This change was implemented with the help of an AI coding assistant, which gitea's CONTRIBUTING.md explicitly welcomes when disclosed. I have reviewed the change, understand it, and can explain and defend it. ## Tests Added a `NoArchOnly` subtest to `TestPackageAlpine` that publishes only a `noarch` package to a fresh repository and asserts that `GET .../x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz` now returns `200` (previously `404`) and that the served index lists the noarch package. Verified locally with `go build`/`go vet` on the changed package and a compile of the integration test package (`go test -c`); the full integration run relies on CI.

Gitea Package Registry
This document gives a brief overview how the package registry is organized in code.
Structure
The package registry code is divided into multiple modules to split the functionality and make code reuse possible.
| Module | Description |
|---|---|
models/packages |
Common methods and models used by all registry types |
models/packages/<type> |
Methods used by specific registry type. There should be no need to use type specific models. |
modules/packages |
Common methods and types used by multiple registry types |
modules/packages/<type> |
Registry type specific methods and types (e.g. metadata extraction of package files) |
routers/api/packages |
Route definitions for all registry types |
routers/api/packages/<type> |
Route implementation for a specific registry type |
services/packages |
Helper methods used by registry types to handle common tasks like package creation and deletion in routers |
services/packages/<type> |
Registry type specific methods used by routers and services |
Models
Every package registry implementation uses the same underlying models:
| Model | Description |
|---|---|
Package |
The root of a package providing values fixed for every version (e.g. the package name) |
PackageVersion |
A version of a package containing metadata (e.g. the package description) |
PackageFile |
A file of a package describing its content (e.g. file name) |
PackageBlob |
The content of a file (may be shared by multiple files) |
PackageProperty |
Additional properties attached to Package, PackageVersion or PackageFile (e.g. used if metadata is needed for routing) |
The following diagram shows the relationship between the models:
Package <1---*> PackageVersion <1---*> PackageFile <*---1> PackageBlob
Adding a new package registry type
Before adding a new package registry type have a look at the existing implementation to get an impression of how it could work.
Most registry types offer endpoints to retrieve the metadata, upload and download package files.
The upload endpoint is often the heavy part because it must validate the uploaded blob, extract metadata and create the models.
The methods to validate and extract the metadata should be added in the modules/packages/<type> package.
If the upload is valid the methods in services/packages allow to store the upload and create the corresponding models.
It depends if the registry type allows multiple files per package version which method should be called:
CreatePackageAndAddFile: error if package version already existsCreatePackageOrAddFileToExisting: error if file already existsAddFileToExistingPackage: error if package version does not exist or file already exists
services/packages also contains helper methods to download a file or to remove a package version.
There are no helper methods for metadata endpoints because they are very type specific.
