Building Zimbra Nginx using a script

Building Zimbra Nginx using a script

The idea is the use below script on a fresh Ubuntu 20.04 server and build Zimbra Nginx without the need to install Zimbra.

Git over SSH

I have added my SSH key to Github and ran ssh-add on my development machine, I added the following to my .ssh/config. Where nginx-dev is the hostname of the Ubuntu 20.04 machine where I want to build Zimbra Nginx.

Host nginx-dev
  ForwardAgent yes

If you have trouble getting git clone to work, replace:

GIT_SSH_COMMAND="ssh -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no" git clone git@github.com:Zimbra/packages.git

with:

git clone https://github.com/Zimbra/packages

You have to do this 3 times!

Use the script

Create a new file build.sh with below content and run it using:

chmod +x build.sh
./build.sh

build.sh script

#!/bin/bash

cd /tmp
rm packages zimbra-* -Rf

apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 9BE6ED79
