spksrc

spksrc is a cross compilation framework intended to compile and package software for Synology NAS devices. Packages are made available via the SynoCommunity repository_.

Requirements

To use spksrc, it is recommended to use a virtual machine with an x86, 32-bit version of Debian stable OS installed. Non-x86 architectures or 64-bit architectures are not supported.

You'll also need some stuff::

sudo apt-get install build-essential debootstrap python-pip automake libgmp3-dev libltdl-dev libunistring-dev libffi-dev libncurses5-dev imagemagick libssl-dev pkg-config zlib1g-dev gettext git curl subversion check libboost1.55-tools-dev intltool gperf flex bison xmlto php5 expect libgc-dev mercurial cython lzip cmake swig
sudo pip install -U setuptools pip wheel httpie

You may need to install some packages from testing like autoconf. Read about Apt-Pinning to know how to do that.

You are now ready to use spksrc and make almost all SPKs. If you have any problem, try installing the missing packages on your virtual machine.

Usage

Lets start with an example::

git clone https://github.com/SynoCommunity/spksrc.git
cd spksrc/
make setup
cd spk/transmission
make arch-88f6281

Setup Development Environment

Docker ^^^^^^

• Fork and clone spksrc: git clone https://You@github.com/You/spksrc.git ~/spksrc
• Install Docker on your host OS: Docker installation. A wget-based alternative for linux: Install Docker with wget.
• Download the spksrc docker container: docker pull synocommunity/spksrc
• Run the container with docker run -it -v ~/spksrc:/spksrc synocommunity/spksrc /bin/bash

Virtual machine ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ A virtual machine based on an x86, 32-bit version of Debian stable OS is recommended. Non-x86 architectures or 64-bit architectures are not supported.

• Install the requirements::

  sudo aptitude install build-essential debootstrap python-pip automake libgmp3-dev libltdl-dev libunistring-dev libffi-dev ncurses-dev imagemagick libssl-dev pkg-config zlib1g-dev gettext git curl subversion check bjam intltool gperf flex bison xmlto php5 expect libgc-dev mercurial cython lzip cmake swig sudo pip install -U setuptools pip wheel httpie

• You may need to install some packages from testing like autoconf. Read about Apt-Pinning to know how to do that.

• Start the virtual machine
