There's no immediate guide that I know of, but from the kind of
mirroring I see Fedora folks use for Fedor mirrors, it's usually a
combination of `rsync` for intelligent downloads & some scripting to
refresh metadata.

FWIW, maybe you can try `reposync` to sync repos and have some kind of
`cron` job to refresh RPM metadata. It is just ported[1] this week to
the much faster RPM package manager `dnf` and is available in
dnf-plugins-core-0.1.4).
