日常使用的客户端端地图感知镜像排名工具 (Arch Linux; Manjaro; 自定义工具)

Rate Mirrors

A fast mirror ranking tool that finds the best mirrors for your Linux distribution. It uses submarine cable and internet exchange data to intelligently hop between countries and discover fast mirrors in ~30 seconds.

Quick Start

bash
# Arch Linux
rate-mirrors arch | sudo tee /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

# Manjaro
rate-mirrors manjaro | sudo tee /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

# With backup
export TMPFILE="$(mktemp)"; \
    rate-mirrors --save=$TMPFILE arch --max-delay=21600 \
    && sudo mv /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist-backup \
    && sudo mv $TMPFILE /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

# See all options
rate-mirrors --help

rate-mirrors stdin Custom mirrors (see Advanced Usage)

Usage

rate-mirrors [OPTIONS]  [SUBCOMMAND-OPTIONS]
  • Run rate-mirrors --help to see base options
  • Run rate-mirrors --help to see subcommand-specific options
  • The tool doesn't need root; use --allow-root if you must run as root

Common Options

Option Description Default
--save=FILE Save output to file instead of stdout -
--concurrency=N Number of simultaneous speed tests 16
--max-jumps=N Maximum country hops 7
--entry-country=CC Starting country code US
--exclude-countries=CC,CC Exclude countries (comma-separated codes) -
--protocol=PROTO Test only specified protocol (http/https) -
--max-mirrors-to-output=N Maximum mirrors to output -
--disable-comments Disable printing comments false
--disable-untested-fallback Exit with error when all speed tests fail instead of outputting untested mirrors false
--allow-root Allow running as root false

Subcommand Options (arch example)

Option Description Default
--completion=N Minimum sync completion (0.0-1.0) 1.0
--sort-mirrors-by=MODE Sort by: score_asc, score_desc, delay_asc, delay_desc score_asc

Algorithm

The tool uses:

  • Submarine cable connections data
  • Internet exchange locations and counts per country
  • Continental groupings for geographic proximity

How it works (arch example):

  1. Fetch mirrors from Arch Linux Mirror Status
  2. Filter out incomplete or outdated mirrors
  3. Sort by mirror score
  4. Starting from entry country, find neighbor countries using:
    • Major internet hubs (first two jumps)
    • Geographic proximity (every jump)
  5. Test mirrors from each country, track fastest and lowest-latency
  6. Jump to countries of best mirrors, repeat
  7. After max jumps, re-test top mirrors sequentially and output final ranking

Data attribution: Submarine cable and IX data from TeleGeography.

Examples

Everyday use on Arch Linux

bash
alias ua-drop-caches='sudo paccache -rk3; yay -Sc --aur --noconfirm'
alias ua-update-all='export TMPFILE="$(mktemp)"; \
    sudo true; \
    rate-mirrors --save=$TMPFILE arch --max-delay=21600 \
      && sudo mv /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist-backup \
      && sudo mv $TMPFILE /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist \
      && ua-drop-caches \
      && yay -Syyu --noconfirm'

Notes:

  • sudo true prompts for password at the start
  • paccache is from pacman-contrib
  • yay is an AUR helper

Add to ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc, then run ua-update-all.

Output example

…

Advanced Usage: stdin

For custom mirror lists or unsupported distributions:

bash
# Input format (tab-separated):
# URL
# COUNTRYURL
# URLCOUNTRY

cat mirrors.txt | rate-mirrors --concurrency=40 stdin \
    --path-to-test="extra/os/x86_64/extra.files" \
    --path-to-return='$repo/os/$arch' \
    --comment-prefix="# " \
    --output-prefix="Server = "

Example mirrors.txt:

https://mirror-a.example.org/repo/
US	https://mirror-b.example.org/repo/
https://mirror-c.example.org/repo/	DE

Exit Codes

Code Meaning
0 Success
1 Error (network failure, invalid arguments, etc.)
