Example Makefile for creating deb/rpm packages with jordansissel/fpm

Makefile

# This is an example Makefile for quick package creation
#
# It uses FPM [1] to generate simple packages.
#  - If you need more features or a greater quality package, use debian
#    standard tools for packaging.
#  - Do not use checkinstall. Use FPM instead.
#
# [1] (https://github.com/jordansissel/fpm/wiki)

# IMPORTANT:
#
# Use whatever variables/paths you want, but PREFIX all destination install
# paths with $(DESTDIR), like below:

#CONFIGDIR=$(DESTDIR)/etc/myapp
#CRONDIR=$(DESTDIR)/etc/cron.d
#INITDIR=$(DESTDIR)/etc/init.d
#LOGROTATEDIR=$(DESTDIR)/etc/logrotate.d
#INSTALLDIR=$(DESTDIR)/my/install/path

# Basic package information
PKG_NAME=myapp
PKG_DESCRIPTION="Package that does foo"
PKG_VERSION=1
PKG_RELEASE=0
PKG_MAINTAINER="Lazy Guy \<someone@somewhere.com\>"
PKG_ARCH=all
PKG_ARCH_RPM=noarch

# These vars probably need no change
PKG_DEB=${PKG_NAME}_${PKG_VERSION}-${PKG_RELEASE}_${PKG_ARCH}.deb
PKG_RPM=${PKG_NAME}-${PKG_VERSION}-${PKG_RELEASE}.${PKG_ARCH_RPM}.rpm
FPM_OPTS=-s dir -n $(PKG_NAME) -v $(PKG_VERSION) --iteration $(PKG_RELEASE) -C $(TMPINSTALLDIR) --maintainer ${PKG_MAINTAINER} --description $(PKG_DESCRIPTION) -a $(PKG_ARCH)
TMPINSTALLDIR=/tmp/$(PKG_NAME)-fpm-install

# Do whatever you need to install the software. Remember to use $(DESTDIR) as
# prefix to all destination paths.
#
# About SYMLINKS: Making a symlink *pointing* to a path with $(DESTDIR) won't work. You can:
# - Use the pointed-to-path without $(DESTDIR) OR
# - Use relative paths OR
# - Create symlinks in the after install script.
#
# Example:
install:
	# mkdir -p $(INSTALLDIR)
	# cp myprog $(INSTALLDIR)
	# ln -s /usr/local/myapp/myprog  $(DESTDIR)/usr/local/bin/myprog
	# ln -s ../myapp/myprog  $(DESTDIR)/usr/local/bin/myprog

# Generate a deb package using fpm
deb:
	rm -rf $(TMPINSTALLDIR)
	rm -f $(PKG_DEB)
	chmod -R g-w *	
	make install DESTDIR=$(TMPINSTALLDIR)
# Set as needed: package dependencies (-d), after-install script, and paths to
# include in the package (last line):
#
# Dependencies python and fping below are just examples, change that to your dependencies
#
	fpm -t deb -p $(PKG_DEB) $(FPM_OPTS) \
		-d python \
		-d 'fping > 3' \
		--after-install postinstall-deb \
		etc usr var

# Generate a rpm package using fpm
rpm:
	rm -rf $(TMPINSTALLDIR)
	rm -f $(PKG_RPM)
	chmod -R g-w *	
	make install-rpm DESTDIR=$(TMPINSTALLDIR)
# Set as needed: package dependencies (-d), after-install script, and paths to
# include in the package (last line):
#
# Dependencies python and fping below are just examples, change that to your dependencies
#
	fpm -t rpm -p $(PKG_RPM) $(FPM_OPTS) \
		-d python \
		-d 'fping > 3' \
		--after-install postinstall-rpm \
		etc usr var

#publish:
#	Do whatever you need to publish your packages to your private repos, if you have any.
