🍹 Gulp plug-in to create a Debian package.
** Please note that this project did not use semantic versioning prior to v1.0.0. It will be adopted as of that version. **
$ npm install --save-dev gulp-debian
Define package in-line:
'use strict'
const gulp = require('gulp')
const deb = require('gulp-debian')
gulp.task('default', function (done) {
return gulp.src(['demo.sh','blob.bin'])
.pipe(deb({
package: 'demo',
version: '0.1-2',
section: 'base',
priority: 'optional',
architecture: 'i386',
maintainer: 'Mr. Apt <[email protected]>',
description: 'A dummy package\n Long description starts here...',
preinst: [ 'echo "hello from dummy package"' ],
postinst: [ 'cat -n /opt/demo/.npmignore' ],
prerm: [ 'cat -n /opt/demo/.npmignore' ],
postrm: [ 'echo "bye from dummy package"' ],
conffiles: 'configs/dir',
changelog: [
{
version: '0.1-2',
distribution: 'unstable',
urgency: 'low',
date: new Date('2016-12-24T12:40:10'),
changes: [
'Added another feature.',
'Fixed feature X.'
]
},
{
version: '0.1-1',
distribution: 'unstable',
urgency: 'low',
date: '2016-12-23T11:24:00',
changes: [
'First release.'
]
}
],
_target: 'opt/demo',
_out: 'dist',
_copyright: 'path/to/copyright',
_clean: true,
_verbose: true
}))
done()
})Alternatively, you can define your package in an external JSON file:
gulp.task('default', function (done) {
return gulp.src(['demo.sh', 'blob.bin'])
.pipe(deb('demo_0.1-2_i386.json'))
done()
})You can also use a YAML file to define your package. Just convert it to an Object first using
the js-yaml module (npm install --save js-yaml):
const YAML = require('js-yaml')
const fs = require('fs')
gulp.task('default', function (done) {
return gulp.src(['demo.sh', 'blob.bin'])
.pipe(deb(YAML.load(fs.readFileSync('demo_0.1-2_i386.yml').toString())))
done()
})-
