V00-32-XX

List of changes with respect to V00-30-XX branch of pkgtools are

  • Auto generation of spec file feature added. Now if cmsdist/dir/cmsdist_packages.py exists then cmsBuild can make use of it and ask for spec files generation e.g. https://github.com/cms-sw/cmsdist/tree/IB/CMSSW_10_4_X/gcc700/pip can generate py-2*.spec for all the pip packages listed https://github.com/cms-sw/cmsdist/blob/IB/CMSSW_10_4_X/gcc700/pip/requirements.txt
  • Make use of existing installation to symlink packages instead of downloading from server. This can save a lot of disk and network band width
    • This feature can be enabled with --reference path-to-existsing-installation command-line option
    • --black-list package-name can be used to make sure that package-name is always install from repository instead of symlink to reference.
  • New usercommand protocol to get package sources e.g. Source: usercommand://package?command=command-to-run-to-get-sources&output=/name.tar.gz
  • Allow no-cmssdt-cache=1 paramemter in Source: to instruct cmsBuild to not cache the downloaded sources in cmsrep
    • Avoding caching large cms data packages.
  • Allow to build a package using local sources.
    • --source <package>:<SourceN>=<path>/<package-dir>. Note that <package-dir> should match to the directory name which package spec file is expacting. For example for building root package with local sources first run
    > cmsBuild -a slc7_amd64_gcc700 ---sources build root
    ...
    ...
    root:Source=root-6.12.07 git+https://....
    
    and then use --source root:Source=/you/path/root-6.12.07 to provide local root sources.
  • Added ## INCLUDE file-name support to include the contents of cmsdist/file-name.file it to the spec.
    • It expand the included file in place as compare to ## IMPORT file which does it at the end of the generate spec.
  • Cache spec results to avoid re-parsing when re-run.
  • Allow to use RPM macros in version. This allows to dynamically set the version based on your arch/os.
### RPM external zlib %{zlib_version}
%ifarch x86_64
%define zlib_version 1.2.11
%else
%define zlib_version 1.2.8
%endif
  • Some cleanup of unused code and moved static data in to separate file.
