Recently I had to roll my own package on CentOS 7. It's been a while since I've done this and so I had to dig around online to remember how to set up an environment for packaging. So this time around I'll jot down some notes.
First thing's first, to build as an arbitrary user we'll need to set up a space for RPMs to be packaged in. Start by defining the location with this via the RPM Macro _topdir:
[mcvady@centos7 ~]$ cat ~/.rpmmacros
%_topdir /home/mcvady/working/rpm
Once set this value should be picked up immediately. Test the value from shell like so:
[mcvady@centos7 ~]$ rpm --eval '%_topdir'
/home/mcvady/working/rpm
Now create the RPM top-level directory:
[mcvady@centos7 ~]$ mkdir -p `rpm --eval '%_topdir'` # create RPM output directory
Here's a helper script I drop in ~/bin/ to flesh out the structure of the RPM packaging top-level directory (Note that ~/bin/ is automatically added to $PATH in the default ~/.bash_profile):
#!/bin/bash
set -e
RM_BIN="/usr/bin/rm"
RPM_BIN="/usr/bin/rpm"
MKDIR_BIN="/usr/bin/mkdir"
rpmtopdir=`$RPM_BIN --eval '%_topdir'`
pushd $rpmtopdir 2>&1 > /dev/null
$RM_BIN -rf BUILD/*
$RM_BIN -rf BUILDROOT/*
$RM_BIN -rf RPMS/*
$RM_BIN -rf SOURCES/*
$RM_BIN -rf SPECS/*
$RM_BIN -rf SRPMS/*
$MKDIR_BIN -p BUILD
$MKDIR_BIN -p BUILDROOT
$MKDIR_BIN -p RPMS/x86_64
$MKDIR_BIN -p SOURCES
$MKDIR_BIN -p SPECS
$MKDIR_BIN -p SRPMS
popd 2>&1 > /dev/null
And now to test that packaging works by packaging a project:
[mcvady@centos7 ~]$ cd working/
[mcvady@centos7 working]$ git clone http://git.bunkergate.org/chunker
Cloning into 'chunker'...
[mcvady@centos7 working]$ cd chunker/
[mcvady@centos7 chunker]$ ./package.sh 0.9.1
srcdir /home/mcvady/working/rpm/SOURCES
