is to fully automate the building of distributions and
their release for distribution through a web-site, ftp
directory, etc. Inspired by nix-dist, but more generic
in order to deal with StrategoXT and related packages.
The assumptions are the following:
- package source is a subversion repository
- the package is under autotool configuration
(at least it has a configure.in with an AC_INIT)
- standard autotools build interface:
- bootstrap; configure; make install;
make check; make dist
- optionally the release status can be indicated by
a status="..." definition in configure.in
Creation of distributions is a two-step process:
urls-to-nix.sh # nix expressions for most recent commits
build+upload.sh # instantiate the expressions
svn-to-nix.sh
Generates nix expression for head revision of the
package; revision number, package name, and version
are obtained from the source and do not have to
be declared.
urls-to-nix.sh
Contains a list of URLs to which svn-to-nix.sh is applied.
build+upload.sh
Builds the packages and creates distributions in a www
directory. Including the log of the build process (buildfarm)
and files such as NEWS and README (for release management).
(upload part of the script is currently turned off)
do-it.nix
Top nix expression; collects pointers to required packages
(e.g., stdenv, autotools, aterms, ...) and binds them
to the parameters of the source-dist.nix packages.
package-source-dist.nix
Generic Nix expression for a package parameterized with
version info from svn and dependency info from do-it.nix.
package-dist.nix
Generated; just imports
package-version-rev.nix
Generated; instantiates package-source-dist.nix with version,
name, packagename, rev.
build-from-svn.sh
Generic build script; obtains configuration flags from
with... and enable... attributes of the Nix expression.
Creates logs of the various parts of the build process.
Creates distribution
Generalizations:
- Currently some information about a package resides in
this directory, e.g., the generic Nix expression for
a package, and the composition of the overall do-it.nix
This information should also be obtained from the source
tree.
- Upload facility lacking.
