1. Add these lines to your Makefile so you can use this plugin

mkplugin:
        curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/packagemgmt/make-plugins/master/make-rpm.mk > make-rpm.mk

-include make-rpm.mk

2. Then call 'make mkplugin' to download it.
3. (if you like it) git add mkplugin.mk && git commit mkplugin.mk && git push

Create rpm from content in current working directory

make rpm

Override version mentioned in specfile - good for continuous integration

make rpm VERSION=1.2.3

Create RPMs for all os versions (el6, el7)

make rpms

Upload to artifact repository. This will also build the rpms before. (Note: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/repositorytools >=4.2.1 are needed)

export REPOSITORY_URL=https://repository.eng.mycompany.com
export REPOSITORY_USER=jdoe
export REPOSITORY_PASSWORD=mysecretpassword

make uploadrpms GROUP=com.mycompany

Package name is taken from spec file's base name and passed to rpmbuild or mock as PACKAGE_NAME macro.

Version is loaded from environment variable VERSION and made available in the spec file as VERSION macro. If the variable VERSION is not defined, its value is built up from VERSION_MAJOR, VERSION_MINOR and VERSION_BUGFIX variables.

Release is analogically loaded from variable named RELEASE and passed into the spec file as RELEASE macro. The default value is 1.

These three calls are equivalent:

make rpm VERSION=1.2.3
make rpm VERSION=1.2.3 RELEASE=1
make rpm VERSION_MAJOR=1 VERSION_MINOR=2 VERSION_BUGFIX=3 RELEASE=1

Target OS versions can be defined in environment variable OS_VERSIONS.

The default value is 5 6 7, so mock will be called with epel-5-x86_64, epel-6-x86_64 and epel-7-x86_64 chroot configs.

To build RPM package, for example, only for EL6 and 7 call:

make rpm OS_VERSIONS='6 7'

You need to install repositorytools of version 4.2.1 or higher for upload to Nexus repository manager to work. The repositorytools can be found at https://pypi.org/project/repositorytools/.

Connection to the repository manager must be configured by environment variables REPOSITORY_URL, REPOSITORY_USER and REPOSITORY_PASSWORD. They are then processed directly by the artifact upload command from repository tools.

The REPOSITORY_URL variable must contain URL to the Nexus service, not to a specific repository.

export REPOSITORY_URL=https://repository.eng.mycompany.com
export REPOSITORY_USER=jdoe
export REPOSITORY_PASSWORD=mysecretpassword

make uploadrpms GROUP=com.mycompany

The repository ID where RPM packages will be uploaded can be configured by RELEASE_REPOSITORY and SNAPSHOT_REPOSITORY variables. The latter is used if the RELEASE variable contains the value SNAPSHOT.

If the specified repository ID contains a string $(os_version) it will be replaced by individual values from the OS_VERSIONS variable.

This command will upload RPMs to rpms-el6 and rpms-el7 repositories:

RELEASE_REPOSITORY='rpms-el$(os_version)'

make uploadrpms OS_VERSIONS='6 7'

If you need to specify additional options for the artifact upload command, you can do so be defining RELEASE_UPLOAD_OPTIONS and SNAPSHOT_UPLOAD_OPTIONS variables instead.

A typical use case is uploading non-snapshot artifacts to a staging profile (notice that RELEASE_REPOSITORY contains staging profile name):

RELEASE_REPOSITORY='rpms-profile-el$(os_version)'
RELEASE_UPLOAD_OPTIONS='--staging --description "My description"'

make uploadrpms

Note: If you don't need separate upload options for release and snapshot repositories, you can define UPLOAD_OPTIONS instead. This variable overrides values of RELEASE_UPLOAD_OPTIONS and SNAPSHOT_UPLOAD_OPTIONS.
