The Meego Online Build System (OBS) seems rather complicated, this page will attempt to make it nice and easy to get started.

It's a work in progress, feel free to add and modify!


Contents

Pre-requisites

  • You need a meego.com login to be able to access the OBS
  • You need to be running one of the supported OSes
  • Install osc (for example, apt-get install osc may work out-of-the-box on recent versions of Ubuntu & Debian, other repositories are available on openSUSE tools)

Setting up your home project

Your home project is like a home directory in which you can create sub-projects, repositories, etc.


Setting up a sub-project

  • In the overview tab, click on Actions and select "Create subproject".

Adding files to a sub-project and building them

From the terminal

  • Checkout (like SVN) your home project, which will contain your newly created sub-project 
 osc -A https://api.pub.meego.com co home:[username]
  • Add files to your local copy
    • For MeeGo this will be a .spec file and a tarball containing your source code, etc.
    • For Harmattan this will be a .dsc file, source tarball and debian.tar.gz (this allows one to keep the debian directory out of the source) 
 osc -A https://api.pub.meego.com add [filename]
  • Commit the files 
 osc -A https://api.pub.meego.com commit

At this point the OBS will try to build your project remotely. You can also build locally by doing osc build

Using the webinterface

  • Add the correct files as listed above and they will be automatically built for you
