Create ArchLinux, RPM and Debian packages from npm packages.

In a package directory execute

npm-pkgbuild --rpm --debian --arch --content /destination:build --publish /some/directory

This will create a arch, rpm and a debian package of the build dir.

npm-pkgbuild --arch --content build --publish 'https://my.package-service.com/binaries/linux/{{type}}/{{access}}/{{arch}}'

You can specify the package content in package.json.

{
  "pkgbuild": {
    "content": {
      "/some/location/" : { "base": "build" },
      "/etc/myconfig.json" : "sample-config.json",
      "/erc/secret" : { "name":  "secret", "mode": "600" },
      "/opt/myapp": [
        {
          "type": "npm-pack"
        },
        {
          "type": "node-modules",
          "withoutDevelpmentDependencies": true
        }
      ]
    },
    "hooks" : "pkg/hooks",
    "output": {
      "debian" : {},
      "rpm" : {},
      "arch" : {}
    },
  "dependencies": { "nginx" : ">=1.12" }
  }
}
