Revision as of 02:26, 22 January 2009
These directions are clearly not going to be the final workflow. If nothing else, i can't even get brainfuck to compile fully. But it demonstrates fundamentally how the workflow will follow. Most of the steps in this process are pretty generic to alot of kinds of packages. Implementing code to handle the bits for other packages is as simple as coding the steps into Python.
Getting the Source
In order to begin, you will need the latest source. Currently, this is only available through git. Open a handy terminal window and follow along.
$ git clone git://git.fedorapeople.org/home/fedora/ynemoy/public_git/fedora-devshell.git
Since this is the raw upstream, there's a chance the code may not work.
Launching Ports
Since there are no built in tools yet for building a package, the only way to interact with the code is via the source directory itself. Therefore it's necessary to modify the command line path to make this work.
$ export PATH=/path/to/fedora-devshell/:$PATH
$ ports.py

output, module, params = do_command(args)
File "/path/to/fedora-devshell/base/base.py", line 176, in do_command
output = top(*params)
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable
This confirms that the code is running at least partially. The list of names there is a list of the available modules, albeit repeated.
Setting up a project
Currently, Fedora Devshell can only work with Haskell programs, especially ones hosted on Hackage, the Haskell package repository. It also only works with packages managed by Darcs, the Haskell distributed version control system. Let's get a package and start playing with it.
$ ports.py package brainfuck $ cd brainfuck/ brainfuck $ ls -Al totaal 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 yankee yankee 44 jan 20 22:19 .devshell brainfuck $ cat .devshell type = package name = brainfuck sources = ,
We've started a new package called brainfuck.

Editing the package
This gets the latest upstream tarball from hackage. Let's do a bit of hacking. Let's assume that brainfuck's not FHS compliant, and we need to put a quick patch in to get it into Fedora. Eventually we will send that patch upstream, but the tools for that are still in the works. For now, i'm going to assume that adding lines to the LICENSE file will make it FHS compliant. (In my imaginary world, we also have cookies.)

As you can see, keeping the original code tree around is convenient, because we can run diff's easily.

This creates our first patch. It's ordered for reasons that will be obvious shortly. Later in the workflow, someone hands you a second patch, which you want to import into the package. Apparently you couldn't make the package FHS compliant enough.

The 0 in the last command is what would ordinarily be passed to the argument -p to patch. We can also tell that the patches apply to the source code cleanly. Next we want to make a spec file.
Creating an RPM
brainfuck/brainfuck-0.1 $ ports.py cabal . gen_spec brainfuck brainfuck/brainfuck-0.1 $ ls -A brainfuck.cabal .devshell Language/ Main.hs Setup.hs brainfuck.spec .devshell~ LICENSE .pkg_src/ brainfuck/brainfuck-0.1 $ cd .. brainfuck $ ls -A brainfuck-0.1/ brainfuck.spec .devshell moar.FHS.patch
I've skipped the steps about integrating patches into the spec file, and updating it with all the vital bits. haskellports uses cabal2spec which means you have to fill in all the little bits later. Rather, we're going to jump right away to compiling RPMs. Currently, Haskell packages can only be built for rawhide, so we're going to use the 'devel' branch. profile will copy over mock configuration files, so we can tinker with them later. This segment is only half baked, so theres's not much you can do with profile except copy bits and use it with mock
brainfuck $ cd .. $ ports.py profile profiles/devel configure_from_system devel $ cd brainfuck/ brainfuck $ ports.py package fetch_sourceballs brainfuck $ ls -Al totaal 20 drwxr-sr-x 4 yankee yankee 4096 jan 20 23:07 brainfuck-0.1/ lrwxrwxrwx 1 yankee yankee 74 jan 20 23:17 brainfuck-0.1.tar.gz -> ~/haskell/brainfuck/brainfuck-0.1/.pkg_src/brainfuck-0.1.tar.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 yankee yankee 2456 jan 20 23:11 brainfuck.spec -rw-r--r-- 1 yankee yankee 115 jan 20 23:17 .devshell -rw-r--r-- 1 yankee yankee 652 jan 20 22:37 moar.FHS.patch $ ls ~/rpmbuild/* ~/rpmbuild/BUILD: ~/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT: ~/rpmbuild/RPMS: i386/ noarch/ x86_64/ ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES: ~/rpmbuild/SPECS: ~/rpmbuild/SRPMS: $ ports.py build ~/rpmbuild setup_source brainfuck $ ls -l ~/rpmbuild/* ~/rpmbuild/BUILD: totaal 0 ~/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT: totaal 0 ~/rpmbuild/RPMS: totaal 12 drwxr-sr-x 2 yankee yankee 4096 dec 16 00:22 i386/ drwxr-sr-x 2 yankee yankee 4096 dec 16 00:22 noarch/ drwxr-sr-x 2 yankee yankee 4096 jan 7 22:50 x86_64/ ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES: totaal 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 yankee yankee 51 jan 20 23:19 brainfuck-0.1.tar.gz -> ~/haskell/brainfuck/brainfuck-0.1.tar.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 yankee yankee 45 jan 20 23:19 moar.FHS.patch -> ~/haskell/brainfuck/moar.FHS.patch ~/rpmbuild/SPECS: totaal 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 yankee yankee 45 jan 20 23:19 brainfuck.spec -> ~/haskell/brainfuck/brainfuck.spec ~/rpmbuild/SRPMS: totaal 0
mock will actually run setup_sources for us later on. This just demonstrates what it does. The code is also a bit half-baked.
Building the RPM in Mock

In reality, setting up the source is not necessary. In the latest upstream, mock.build_rpm can actually set up the source for you.
Conclusion
Clearly mock failed. I guess that spec file wasn't perfect. Because of the use of symlinks, however, i can simply edit the spec file, make the necessary changes, and rerun the command to initialize mock. Fedora Devshell will automatically build the source RPM, and send the appropriate command to mock to use a premade profile. There will be more you can do with this here.
This concludes the tutorial section. For more information about what you can do with Fedora Devshell, have a look at the Developers Guide.
