autobuild
Automatically build & distribute Debian packages
What does it do?
This program will automatically:
-
Download Debian package sources from a git repo
-
Launch a virtual QEMU build-farm & build those packages for various architectures
-
Create GitHub/Forgejo release pages for those packages
-
Push those packages to a Debian Repository hosted on GitHub Pages (or similar service)
Autobuild is also used to build & distribute itself.
How do I use it?
Installation
Autobuild can be easily installed via the deb.rail5.org repository:
sudo curl -s -o /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/rail5.gpg "https://deb.rail5.org/rail5.gpg"
sudo curl -s -o /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rail5.list "https://deb.rail5.org/debian/rail5.list"
sudo apt update
sudo apt install autobuild
Set-up
After installing, run autobuild -s
to complete set-up.
Your CONFIG file can be edited with autobuild -c
, and is where you will tell autobuild where to find your packages, as well as other settings
Usage
autobuild --amd64 --i386 --arm64 --package my-debian-package --package my-other-debian-package --github-page
autobuild -1 -2 -3 -p my-debian-package -p my-other-debian-package -g
The above examples will build your packages "my-debian-package" and "my-other-debian-package" (as you've set them up in the CONFIG file) and then publish them to GitHub Release pages.
autobuild --local -p my-debian-package -o /home/user/
The above example will build your package locally (without using the virtual build farm) and save the resulting build in /home/user
See autobuild --help
, autobuild -h
, or man autobuild
for a list of options and how to use them.
