YunoHost Debian Packages

Architecture

Yunohost packages are located on the yunohost.org workstation, in the /home/yunohost/packages.git folder.

Build system is based on debuild and pbuilder. It will generate a chroot, embedding every dependencies and Debian build tools.

Configuration is defined in the /etc/pbuilder/megusta-amd64 file and allows to make packages without any specific architecture.

**Caution:** be advised not to be logged in as "root" to execute the following commands (except those starting with `sudo`).

Package update

Packages with external sources

Packages based on GitHub sources (moulinette, moulinette-yunohost, ssowat, et yunohost-admin) require the latest modifications:

[yunohost@yunohost] ~/packages.git/moulinette $ cd src
[yunohost@yunohost] ~/packages.git/moulinette/src $ git pull

Then, start package build (caution: you need to be located in the package root folder):

[yunohost@yunohost] ~/packages.git/moulinette/src $ cd ..
[yunohost@yunohost] ~/packages.git/moulinette $ commit-and-build "Message de commit"

Configuration Packages

To update a yunohost-config-* package, move to the root folder, make your changes (for example: change a debian/postinst script), and type in the same command as for packages with sources:

[yunohost@yunohost] ~/packages.git/yunohost-config-nginx $ commit-and-build "Commit message"

The build command will update the Debian changelog (debian/changelog) and start the package creation. Once created, it will automatically added in the repository test`.

Update in a production environment

To add a package in the megusta (stable) (debian/changelog):

[yunohost@yunohost] ~/packages.git/monpaquet $ commit-and-build "Commit message" production

Once modifications are applied, you may execute git push to send your modifications to GitHub.

Add a package to a repository manually

You can add Debian packages into the repository. NodeJS package is an example.

sudo reprepro -Vb /var/www/repo.yunohost.org/ includedeb repository_name package_name.deb

repository_name may be test or megusta.

Delete a package from a repository

Delete a Debian package from a repository in order to empty the test repository for example:

sudo reprepro -Vb /var/www/repo.yunohost.org/ includedeb repository_name package_name

TODO

Modify commit-build script to retrieve git commit messages and generate Debian changelog with git-dch command.
