| | | #+TITLE: Auto-build package repository for Arch Linux |
|---|
| | | |
|---|
| | | * What is this? |
|---|
| | | This is a set of files to auto-build a personal repository for Arch. |
|---|
| | | 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. |
|---|
| | | * Set-up |
|---|
| | | Create a chroot environment named "chroot" in the current directory. |
|---|
| | | Copy the ~build.sh~ script to ~/build/repo~ within the chroot. |
|---|
| | | Script coming soon. |
|---|
| | | * Usage |
|---|
| | | All scripts must be run as root. |
|---|
| | | To enter the chroot, use the ~enter_chroot.sh~ script. |
|---|
| | | To add a package from the AUR, use the ~add_package.sh~ script, with the git URL as the argument. |
|---|
| | | 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~. |
|---|
| | | The packages are built and put into the directory ~/build/repo/x86_64~, then pushed with git. |
|---|
| | | 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. |
|---|
| | | To enable automatic building, create a cronjob for root, something of the sort of ~* 12 * * * /path/to/dir/build_packages.sh~. |
