PackageDrone/ReleaseBuild

This page tries to describe the internal build process for releases.

Prerequisites

• Maven 3.3.x with mvn in the "PATH"
• gpg-agent and a working signing key
• rpm build tools installed

Have the following properties set in your ~/.m2/settings.xml or provide these during the builds:

<jdeb.keyring>/path/to/gpg/keyring</jdeb.keyring>
<jdeb.key>12345678</jdeb.key>
<jdeb.passphrase>passphrase</jdeb.passphrase>

Have the following RPM macros defined in your ~/.rpmmacros:

%_gpg_name 12345678
%__gpg_check_password_cmd /bin/true
%__gpg_sign_cmd %{__gpg} gpg --batch --no-verbose --no-armor --use-agent --no-secmem-warning -u "%{_gpg_name}" -sbo %{__signature_filename} %{__plaintext_filename}

Performing the build

git clone https://github.com/eclipse/packagedrone.git packagedrone.git
cd packagedrone.git
cd runtime
mvn clean install 
cd ..
mvn clean verify -Prpm -Pjdeb-sign  -Dtycho.localArtifacts=ignore

Build profiles

The jdeb-sign profile uses the "jdeb.*" properties above to sign the DEB and RPM packages. This profiles also requires the rpm profile to be active.

Assembling outputs

Run the following commands after a successful local build:

cd deploy/promote
ant -DkeyId=12345678 -Declipse.committer=userid -DbaseVersion=0.1 -Drelease=0.m1 -DbuildType=milestone -f build.ant

Check the output with:

find output

Dry run the upload:

ant -DkeyId=12345678 -Declipse.committer=userid -DbaseVersion=0.1 -Drelease=0.m1 -DbuildType=milestone -f build.ant publish

Perform the upload:

ant -DdryRun= -DkeyId=12345678 -Declipse.committer=userid -DbaseVersion=0.1 -Drelease=0.m1 -DbuildType=milestone -f build.ant publish

The download location is structured like this:
