- | + | =Buiding Mer.= | |
- | This | + | This page is a collection of ramblings about the ongoing experiment with OBS |
- | + | https://build.opensuse.org | |
- | + | Mer is based on Ubuntu Jaunty | |
+ | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/jaunty/alpha-6/ | ||
- | == | + | == Installing OBS tools locally == |
+ | You'll need an account with Novell : http://is.gd/nzxP | ||
- | + | Assuming a debian or ubuntu development box locally: | |
- | + | Add osc repo top apt. | |
+ | deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Tools/xUbuntu_8.10/ / | ||
+ | or | ||
+ | deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Tools/Debian_5.0/ / | ||
+ | to | ||
+ | /etc/apt/sources.list.d/obs.list | ||
- | Then | + | Then |
+ | apt-get update | ||
+ | apt-get install osc | ||
+ | run | ||
+ | osc | ||
+ | and enter novell.com username/passwd | ||
- | + | Go and login to https://build.opensuse.org | |
- | + | Make sure you click the "let me build packages" button. | |
- | There | + | There is a link to 'Home Project' on the left I think. Follow this and enter a description. |
- | + | From now on where I use "home:lbt" uses your own "home:username" | |
- | + | Now: | |
+ | osc ls home:lbt | ||
+ | will list | ||
- | + | osc co home:lbt | |
+ | will checkout the project | ||
+ | now | ||
+ | osc meta pkg -e home:lbt epeg | ||
- | + | edit the name/description | |
+ | run | ||
+ | osc up | ||
+ | This makes a package dir | ||
+ | cp package.tar.gz package.dsc homt:lbt/package | ||
+ | cd package | ||
+ | Then add them to version control | ||
+ | osc addremove | ||
+ | and upload them | ||
+ | osc ci | ||
- | + | Now we need to pick build targets: | |
- | + | https://build.opensuse.org/project/add_target_simple?project=home:lbt | |
- | + | And pick one or two ( I picked Debian Lenny and Ubuntu 8.10) | |
- | + | ||
- | + | ||
- | + | To watch what is going on: | |
+ | osc buildlog <target> | ||
+ | so | ||
+ | osc buildlog Debian_5.0 i586 | ||
- | + | This does something like a "tail -f" of the Xen builder. | |
- | + | ||
- | + | == Scenarios === | |
- | + | In the following, Mer environment is defined as the sum of packages with Ubuntu packages, with Mer repository overlaid on top, not what is built in a 'Mer' project. | |
- | + | ||
- | + | ||
- | + | ||
- | + | ||
- | + | ||
- | + | ||
- | + | ||
- | + | ||
- | + | ||
- | + | ||
- | + | ||
- | + | ||
- | + | 1. A lone developer sits down and decides to create a project. He assigns a package name to this and his name as maintainer. He finishes his release, and dpkg-buildpackage -S -us -uc, generating a .dsc and tar.gz. He would like to build his package for the Mer environment, the X86 and ARMEL targets. He doesn't want to maintain a local toolchain beyond his x86 VMDK, so he submits the build job to the OpenSUSE Build Service (which he has registered with). He can then observe the build progress and he can subsequently download resulting .deb(s) and .changes file to upload to the Mer (Extras) repository. | |
+ | |||
+ | 2. Variation on the first but with OpenSUSE Build Service located on maemo.org | ||
+ | |||
+ | 3. A company developer sits down and creates a project. He takes this source from a company source code repository, assigns a package name and setting his name as maintainer. He generates a release (generating a .dsc and tar.gz) and he would like to target Mer environment, and Ubuntu, the X86 and ARMEL targets. He would like to build locally on his VMDK, as the source code should never leave the company premises. He can then watch the build progress and subsequently gets the resulting .deb(s) and .changes, to be able to upload. He should not need a login at all to build locally | ||
+ | |||
+ | 4. Same as 3, but is okay to need a login, it is assumed there is a OBS Server appliance with builder workers in the company. |
