| C | 2 | |
| 3 | * What is this? | |
| 4 | This is a set of files to auto-build a personal repository for Arch. | |
| 5 | It uses a chroot environment to build the packages, so that a build environment can be made on a server running a non-arch operating system. | |
| 6 | * Set-up | |
| 7 | Create a chroot environment named "chroot" in the current directory. | |
| 8 | Copy the ~build.sh~ script to ~/build/repo~ within the chroot. | |
| 9 | Script coming soon. | |
| 10 | * Usage | |
| 11 | All scripts must be run as root. | |
| 12 | To enter the chroot, use the ~enter_chroot.sh~ script. | |
| 13 | To add a package from the AUR, use the ~add_package.sh~ script, with the git URL as the argument. | |
| 14 | To build the packages use the ~build_packages.sh~ script, which will enter the chroot, and build the packages from the PKGBUILDs stored in ~/build/repo~. | |
| 15 | The packages are built and put into the directory ~/build/repo/x86_64~, then pushed with git. | |
| 3ce647 | 16 | Only the latest packages are stored in ~/build/repo/x86_64~ to avoid multiple older versions building up. |
| 82201d | 17 | Since git is used, be sure to sign in to git in the chroot and set ~git config --global credential.helper store~, with an appropriate remote repository. |
| C | 18 | To enable automatic building, create a cronjob for root, something of the sort of ~* 12 * * * /path/to/dir/build_packages.sh~. |
