Integrate into fpm? #8

Closed jordansissel closed 9 years ago

jordansissel commented 12 years ago

My massive refactor of FPM is almost done. I was thinking:

fpm -s recipe -t rpm zeromq

Will use a cookery recipe to produce an rpm of zeromq. Thoughts?

bernd commented 12 years ago

Do you want to pull over the whole codebase?

What I would like to keep is the simple cd /recipes/zeromq && fpm-cook workflow and the ports-tree like layout where you put patches, init scripts etc. in one directory.

In your example command, does fpm know the recipe location?

In general, I like the idea of a tighter integration with fpm!

I haven't figured out the implementation of it yet, mostly thinking about how users will interact with the tool.

Something like: fpm -s recipe -t rpm zeromq would:

check for ./zeromq.rb
./zeromq/recipe.rb
some/standard/path/zeromq/recipe.rb
perhaps download the recipe

On the flip side, reducing the workflow to "building packages" hurts the original homebrewlike workflow of 'brew create ' etc. Hmmm. I will ponder this.

Closing this because it's not going to happen I guess. :smile:

Thanks to the diligence of @NicholasBHubbard, we are making good progress with several long-standing FPM issues.

@bernd & @jordansissel What is the bare minimum that needs to happen, from both the fpm side & the fpm-cookery side, in order for us to finally move forward with the "real SRPM" (not "fake SRPM") solution described in the discussion linked below? https://github.com/jordansissel/fpm/issues/237#issuecomment-415941828
