Packaging a .deb<\/h1>\n
1. Checkout the release tag and build the deb according to README. Each build should be done on the same machine as the target distribution. If I am packaging for Centos 6 I am also building on Centos 6. If CMake and CPack are set up correctly it usually boils down to:<\/p>\n
cmake -G "Unix makefiles" -H.\/ -B.\/build\ncd build\nmake\ncpack -G "DEB"<\/code><\/pre>\nIf the project is missing CMake, refuse to package it.<\/p>\n
2. Check that deb info is correct:
\ndpkg-deb -I bncsutil-1.4.1-Linux.deb<\/code>
\n3. Rename it to distro you are building on, then scp to your repo server
\nmv bncsutil-1.4.1-Linux.deb bncsutil-1.4.1-Debian9.deb<\/code>
\n4. If aptly repo does not exist yet, create it
\naptly repo create -comment="Debian 9 repo" -component="main" -distribution="bnetdocs-stretch" debian9<\/code>
\nIdeally you only create the repo the first time, for future updates you create a snapshot of it, add a package, then switch the repo to new snapshot. See aptly docs for more.<\/p>\nAlternatively, you can just add more packages and update the repo with
\naptly publish update bnetdocs-stretch debian9<\/code>
\n <\/p>\n5. Add package to repo
\naptly repo add debian9 deb_archives\/bncsutil-1.4.1-Debian9.deb<\/code>
\n6. Publish repo
\naptly publish repo debian9 debian9<\/code>
\n7. On target machine, add repo to \/etc\/apt\/sources.list <\/strong>and fetch public key<\/strong>
\ndeb http:\/\/apt.xpam.pl\/debian8\/ bnetdocs-stretch main<\/code>
\nwget -qO - https:\/\/apt.xpam.pl\/xpam.pl-pubkey.asc | sudo apt-key add -<\/code>
\n8. Update and then check if package info is correct
\napt-cache show bncsutil<\/code>
\n9. If big mistakes were made
\naptly publish drop debian9 debian9<\/code>
\n..and start over. Repeat for Debian 8 etc.<\/p>\nPackaging an .rpm<\/h1>\n
1. See the previous #1. The only difference is
\ncpack -G "RPM"<\/code>
\n2. Check that rpm info is correct
\nrpm -qip bncsutil-1.4.1-Linux.rpm<\/code>
\n3. Rename it to distro you are building on, then scp to your repo server
\nmv bncsutil-1.4.1-Linux.rpm bncsutil-1.4.1-Centos7.rpm<\/code>
\n4. Make sure you have .rpmmacros<\/strong> file in home dir with uid of gpg signing key (check out your keys with gpg –list-keys<\/strong>). If you don't have one, generate it. Entry in the file should look like:
\n%_gpg_name <uid here><\/code>
\n5. Sign rpm
\nrpm --addsign rpm_archives\/bncsutil-1.4.1-Centos7.rpm<\/code>
\n4. Move to appropriate repo that was created by createrepo earlier (see createrepo docs)
\nmv rpm_archives\/bncsutil-1.4.1-Centos7.rpm .createrepo-centos7\/<\/code>
\n5. Update repo metadata
\ncreaterepo --update .\/.createrepo-centos7\/<\/code>
\n6. Add your repo on the target machine<\/p>\nyum -y install yum-utils\nyum-config-manager --add-repo https:\/\/centos7.rpm.xpam.pl\nyum-config-manager --enable https:\/\/centos7.rpm.xpam.pl\nrpm --import https:\/\/centos7.rpm.xpam.pl\/xpam.pl-pubkey.asc<\/code><\/pre>\n<\/code>Since createrepo is pretty much just an http server you can simply delete an rpm and update the metadata in case things go south.<\/p>\nRepeat for Centos 6 etc.<\/p>\n
