NAME

Test::AutoBuild::Stage::CreateRepo - Create an package repository index for package management tools

SYNOPSIS

  use Test::AutoBuild::Stage::CreateRepo

  my $stage = Test::AutoBuild::Stage::CreateRepo->new(name => "crearerepo",
                                               label => "Create package repository index",
                                               options => {
                                                 directory => "/var/lib/builder/public_html/dist",
                                                 parameters => "-d -s -n",
                                               });

  $stage->run($runtime);

DESCRIPTION

This module invokes the createrepo(8) command to generate an index of RPM packages generated during the build. The index enables use of the yum(8) command to install packages generated by the builder. The crearerepo(8) command is expected to be found in the $PATH.

CONFIGURATION

In addition to the standard parameters defined by the Test::AutoBuild::Stage module, this module accepts two entries in the options parameter:

directory

The full path to the directory containing RPMs to be indexed. If this option is not specified, then the directories option must be set.

directories

An array of paths to directories containing RPMs to be indexed. If this option is not specified, then the directory option must be set.

parameters

A string of command line arguments to be passed to the createrepo command, see the createrepo(8) manual page for details of possible values.

EXAMPLE

  {
    name = createrepo
    label = Update Pacakge Repository
    module = Test::AutoBuild::Stage::CreateRepo
    critical = 0
    options = {
      directory = /var/lib/builder/public_html/dist
      parameters = -d
    }
  }

METHODS

$stage->process($runtime);

For each directory defined in the options parameter, this method will run the createrepo command to generate the index.
