Any directory passed to --prefer-pkgs will be searched for a repodata
directory. If the directory does not contain a repodata directory, then
each ancestor directory is checked. This allows for the user error of
specifying an individual architecture directory (e.g. x86_64) instead of the
parent repository directory that contains the repodata:
repository/
x86_64/
*.rpm
repodata/
*.xml.gz
The use case for this feature is it allows snapshots of the OBS repositories
to be offloaded to an network-attached filesystem. repodata directories are
used as the xml.gz files are faster to read than the 100s of rpms in a given
snapshot. These snapshots are used to track older rpm sets that may be
deployed for testing.
- fetch.py: get rid of the "partname concept" for fetching binaries and use tempfiles instead (the former concept can lead to unexpected errors in some cases)
--overlay OVERLAY
Copy overlay filesystem to buildroot after installing
all RPMs. This must be a valid directory.
--rsync-src RSYNCSRC
Copy overlay folder (RSYNCSRC) to a folder (RSYNCDEST)
inside the buildroot using rsync.
It will "%define RSYNCDONE 1" for handling %setup in your
specfile. E.g.:
%prep
%if 0%{?RSYNCDONE}
%setup -n aaa_base -T -D -b 5 -b 7
%else
%setup -n aaa_base -b 5 -b 7
%endif
--rsync-dest RSYNCDEST
Todo: tell rpmbuild not to delete the folders.
fostering open source contributions says that it can discourage contribution by
conveying a false sense of "code ownership". Marking territory is negatively
affecting collaboration. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSFDm3UYkeE
* basically get rid of the scheme and apisrv mess - instead directly use the apiurl (== <protocol>://<host>) for everything
* some other minor cleanups here and there
* everyone who has a scheme or apisrv entry in his ~/.oscrc will get a deprecation warning but it's still working (at some point in the future we might remove these code paths)
* when writing a new ~/.oscrc store the apiurl in the conffile [fixes#478054]
- while being at it:
* fixed#478054 ("osc asks for build.o.o credential even if -A<somelocalapi> is always used")
* fixed#478052 ("osc backtrace on password entry (first startup)")
* although other targets do work, only activated arm and sh4 targets for Cross Build
* powerpc could also be used for Cross Build, but uses Native Build atm
* thes limited switching on of Cross Build is due to a new interface for workers that will handle workers with *super capabilites* in the future.
* then you can configure Cross Build at configure/runtime, not by changing the code
* rework buildinfo parser.
* handle new (or rather, future) attributes
named noinstall, package (we call it repopackage), repoarch.
* handle kiwi builds.
The urllist template (for constructing download URLs) was changed to
make the '_repository' part variable.
Default is "extra-pkgs = vim gdb strace" -- and it can be overridden with -x ''
on the commandline, or set to empty in the config. [bnc#345142]
- make tilde expansion work on the packagecachedir setting
otherwise packages are stored incorrectly in the package cache
and that might cause problems later. Also refuse to build an
architecture locally that is not supported by the host architecture
the BUILD_DIST environment variable will be ignored by osc
- the following environment variables can still be used:
# OSC_SU_WRAPPER overrides the setting of su-wrapper.
# OSC_BUILD_ROOT overrides the setting of build-root.
# OSC_PACKAGECACHEDIR overrides the setting of packagecachedir.
(now they're documented in the helptext)
* --local-package: use this option if you're trying to build a
package which doesn't exist on the server
* --alternative-project <project>: use this option to specify an
alternative project if the current project doesn't exist on the
server, e.g.: osc build [OPTS] --alternative-project openSUSE:10.3 standard i586 BUILD_DESCR
- some other minor cleanups in build.py
- get_repos_of_project() is now a generator function
- implement --extra-pkgs option
- pass the list of extra packages to the backend, as "add=pkg" query parameters
- use osc.core.get_buildinfo(), instead of os.system('osc buildinfo ...')
- implement adding query parameters to constructed URLs in a more generic way
which was still using sys.argv
- build: use own api server as upstream URL in urllist. So far,
api.opensuse.org was hardcoded in the download URL [#265211].
to create a user if it doesn't exist yet. A new command 'usermeta' replaces
'id' respectively 'userid'.
- add preliminary support for doing uploads with a subsequent "commit" request
(not switched on now, since I want to do more testing on this, and there is
no way to pass on a commit message yet anyway.)
- add runtime check for build.rpm version, so the rpm package dependencies is
no longer required
- fix typo introduced last time in the editmeta, deletepac, deleteprj commands
- rewrite the PUT and DELETE request methods to
- transparently handle HTTPS
- handle path parameters (for commits)
- send user agent
- rename get_user_id() function to get_user_meta()
- change copyright notice from Peter Poeml to Peter Poeml / Novell Inc.
- fix testsuite
- add CREDITS file
- move all configuration code into module osc/conf.py
- now, the API server can be configured in .oscrc with
apisrv = ...
- also, 'scheme' (http/https) is no longer a module variable but can be
configured
- all config is in DEFAULT
- ignore vim swap files
- use urllib() convenience wrapper in some functions that used
urllib2.urlopen() and had their own error handling. Instead, it seems to make
sense -- in the future-- to create our own errors and propagate them up, in
cases where the error handling of urlopen() is too generic
- rename get_slash_source() to meta_get_project_list() for consistency
- show local time in get_buildhistory(), not UTC
- rewrite help text of 'rebuildpac' command
- allow to run commandline.py from the commandline (without the wrapper)
- don't send a space when doing a POST request without body
- extend urlopen() so it takes data for optional POST
- extend get_buildinfo() to take optional specfile argument
- osc.build.main: send specfile to server
- buildinfo(): accept specfile as third argument, and document it
