Build Wazuh Agent and generate package for FreeBSD OS

[VenoVeno]

Wazuh version	Install type	Action performed	Platform
4.7.1	Agent	Install	13.1-RELEASE

I have build the wazuh agent using steps. I want to bundle the built source as a package and install on other FreeBSD machines.

Can anyone share how to build as a package for FreeBSD?

Hello @VenoVeno, you can use FreeBSD ports tree to generate a wazuh binary package. Take a look at the following files https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/tree/security/wazuh-agent

You can customize those files and generate a binary package using "make package". It will generate a FreeBSD package with your own modifications. This package can be shared/mirrored to be installed on another FreeBSD hosts using "pkg install wazuh-agent-x.x.pkg"

Take on mind 13.1 is an unsupported FreeBSD Release. You must update to 13.2 (13.3 is coming) or 14.0

Is 13.1 unsupported for freebsd ports?

Is there any workaround solution for 13.1 release with freebsd ports itself?

As we previously discussed over here, is there any way to build and ship the wazuh-agent source build from source?

You can use git for fetch ports tree

# pkg install git-lite
# cd /usr
# mv ports ports.bak
# git clone https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports.git ports

Or you can fetch ports into a tar.gz file

# fetch https://download.freebsd.org/ports/ports/ports.tar.gz

As I said you, you can generate a FreeBSD binary package from ports. Your main problem is you want generate your own version with your own modifications of wazuh-agent. The easy way is modifying security/wazuh-agent port but you need know how it works on FreeBSD

# cd /usr/ports/security/wazuh-agent (Modify security/wazuh-agent files with your own requirements/needs)
# make package

It will generate a wazuh-agent-x.x.pkg file. This package can be shared/mirrored to be installed on another FreeBSD hosts using "pkg install wazuh-agent-x.x.pkg"

Hi @alonsobsd,

Thanks for your reply.

I have generated the patch file using this with the modified version and moved the patched files to files directory of wazuh-agent.

Thanks.
