| # CloudStack RPM and DEB packaging |
| This directory contains all the required scripts and tools needed to build RPM and DEB packages for Apache CloudStack. |
| |
| These scripts are also used by the CloudStack team to build packages for the official release of CloudStack. |
| |
| # Requirements |
| The RPM and DEB packages have dependencies on versions of specific libraries. Due to these dependencies the following distributions and their versions are supported by the packages. |
| |
| * CentOS / RHEL: 7 and 8 |
| * Debian 7 (Wheezy) and 8 (Jessy) (untested!) |
| * Ubuntu: 16.04 (Xenial), 18.04 (Bionic) and 20.04 (Focal) |
| |
| # Building |
| Using the scripts in the *packaging* directory the RPM and DEB packages can be build. |
| |
| ## DEB |
| If you simply want to build packages go to the root directory of your CloudStack source code and run: |
| |
| ``dpkg-buildpackage`` |
| |
| This will build packages for the current distribution version you are running. If you run this on a Ubuntu 16.04 system the packages will be tailored for Ubuntu 16.04 and will not install on Ubuntu 14.04. |
| |
| ### Building cross-distribution |
| If you want to build packages for a different distribution run the *build-deb.sh* script. This will build packages with the current distribution as a suffix to the package names. E.g. *cloudstack-agent_4.9.0~xenial_all.deb* |
| |
| Using a Docker image you can build packages for a distribution you are not running. |
| |
| The following commands assume that the CloudStack source is present in **/tmp/cloudstack** on the system you are running these commands on. |
| |
| ``docker run -ti -v /tmp:/src ubuntu:16.04 /bin/bash -c "apt-get update && apt-get install -y dpkg-dev python debhelper openjdk-8-jdk genisoimage python-mysql.connector maven lsb-release devscripts && /src/cloudstack/packaging/build-deb.sh"`` |
| |
| ``docker run -ti -v /tmp:/src ubuntu:14.04 /bin/bash -c "apt-get update && apt-get install -y dpkg-dev python debhelper openjdk-7-jdk genisoimage python-mysql.connector maven lsb-release devscripts && /src/cloudstack/packaging/build-deb.sh"`` |
| |
| The commands above will generate Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04 packages which you will find in */tmp* on your system after the build succeeds. |
| |
| ## RPM |
| The *package.sh* script can be used to build RPM packages for CloudStack. In the *packaging* script you can run the following command: |
| |
| ``./package.sh --pack oss --distribution centos7`` |
