Unixdaemon: FPM-Cookery Recipes
fpm-cookery
is a very helpful wrapper around the excellent fpm
rubygem, a gem that makes building packages amazingly easy. Cookery
extends fpms
powers by handling additional infrastructure requirements
such as downloading files needed for the package build.
This repo contains some of the fpm-cookery recipes I've written for my personal use.
Using the recipes
# get the code and install the prerequisites
git clone https://github.com/deanwilson/unixdaemon-fpm-cookery-recipes.git
cd unixdaemon-fpm-cookery-recipes
bundle install # this installs fpm-cookery
Now we'll build one of the packages from our recipes. In this case we'll
create a goss
Debian
package.
cd goss
bundle exec fpm-cook --target deb package
... snip ...
===> Created package: /home/dwilson/.../recipes/goss/pkg/goss_0.1.3_amd64.deb
You can now list the contents of the package -
dpkg -c pkg/goss_*.deb
drwxrwxr-x 0/0 0 2016-04-05 23:36 ./usr/local/
drwxrwxr-x 0/0 0 2016-04-05 23:36 ./usr/local/bin/
-rwxrwxr-x 0/0 2323228 2016-04-05 23:36 ./usr/local/bin/goss
On Redhat you can build and confirm the package contents with
bundle exec fpm-cook --target rpm package
rpm -qvilp pkg/goss*.rpm
This requires the rpm-build
to be present.
Notes
I have seen the occasional addition of extra files when building packages on Fedora instances.
rpm -qvilp pkg/*.rpm
... snip ...
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jan 18 17:05 /usr/lib/.build-id
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jan 18 17:05 /usr/lib/.build-id/3b
Setting the _build_id_links
macro to none
seems to prevent this
behaviour. In my case I've added it to the ~/.rpmmacros
configuration file.
cat ~/.rpmmacros
%_build_id_links none
