Enable custom-built packages (user/group/location)

Automatically replace the USER, GROUP, GERRIT_SITE, VERSION
during the packaging phase and on configuration files in
order to create a fully automated custom-built package.

Example: your company requires Gerrit 2.9.3 to be installed on
/opt/gerrit under the user 'review' and group 'wheel'.

$ make USER=review GROUP=wheel GERRIT_SITE=/opt/gerrit VERSION=2.9.3

Generates a package (rpm/deb) named:
out/gerrit-2.9.3-1.noarch.(rpm|deb)

Once installed, the gerrit package info is:

Name        : gerrit
Arch        : x86_64
Version     : 2.9.3
Release     : 1
Size        : 39 M
Repo        : installed
Summary     : Gerrit Code Review

Gerrit Native Installation Packages

This project contains the native Gerrit installation packages for the most popular platforms:

  • Linux (RPM and Debian packages)
  • MacOSX (DMG)
  • Windows (MSI)

Linux RPM/DEB

fpm subdirectory contains the Makefile to create RPM and DEB packages for a basic Gerrit installation with the following options:

  • site: /var/gerrit
  • user: gerrit
  • auth: development_become_any_account

How to build

You need to have a Linux with the FPM utility installed. Then execute the following steps from the cloned gerrit-installer project workspace:

  1. cd fpm
  2. make

RPM/DEBS gets created as fpm/out/gerrit-*.(deb|rpm)

How to build other versions of Gerrit

FPM Makefile allows to customise the version and URL where Gerrit war gets downloaded. By overriding the VERSION variable it is possible to build any Gerrit version that is published on Google Releases Storage http://gerrit-releases.storage.googleapis.com/.

In order to build the package for Gerrit Ver. 2.9.4:

  1. cd fpm
  2. make VERSION=2.9.4

RPM/DEBS gets created as fpm/out/gerrit-2.9.4.(deb|rpm)

How to build Gerrit 2.11/master

Gerrit 2.11/master branch is not published on Google Releases Storage, but is available on Gerrit Build Server under the permalink: http://ci.gerritforge.com/job/Gerrit-master/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/buck-out/gen/gerrit.war

In order to build the package for Gerrit Ver. 2.11/master:

  1. cd fpm
  2. make URL=http://ci.gerritforge.com/job/Gerrit-master/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/buck-out/gen/gerrit.war VERSION=2.11

RPM/DEBS gets created as fpm/out/gerrit-2.11.(deb|rpm)
