build RPM by FPM on Docker of Mac OSX

1. install docker on your Mac OSX, and then start it.

    

   ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL 

   brew install virtualbox boot2docker

   boot2docker init

   boot2docker up

  2. build the environment. 

    cat > Dockerfile <<\EOF

    FROM centos:centos6

     MAINTAINER xiaofu 

     RUN yum clean all

    RUN yum -y update && yum install -y \

    ruby-devel.x86_64 \

    ruby.x86_64 \

    rubygems.noarch \

    gcc.x86_64 \

    rpm-build.x86_64 \

   RUN gem sources -a \

 

       gem install fpm --no-rdoc --no-ri

EOF

 

  3. build the image.

docker build -t fpm_rpm .

  4. run the FPM in docker container. 

 

docker run -it --rm -v `pwd`/data:data fpm_rpm \

    fpm \

    --verbose \

    -f \

    -s dir \

    -t rpm \

    --name slow_query_converter \

    -v 0.9.2 \

    --config-files opt/slow_query_converter/conf/ \

    --exclude "*/*.pyc" \

    --exclude "*/slow_query_converter/logs/*.*" \

    --depends logcheck \
   --rpm-init          # /etc/init.d/XX 启动脚本。

    opt/slow_query_converter

    看起来比写RPM的spec文件要方便很多。当然spec可以指定uninstall等动作，这里似乎只有install。
