Learn how to make an RPM installation package by customizing the Nginx RPM package

RPM is an abbreviation for the Redhat Package Manager (Redhat Packages management tool) and is a packaging and installation tool for the Internet download package, which is included in some Linux distributions. It generates a. RPM file extension. Using RPM to install software and manage software is very convenient.

1. Installing Rpm-build

[Email protected] ~]# yum-y install Rpm-build redhat-rpm-config

2. Create a directory structure

[Email protected] ~]# mkdir-p ~/rpmbuild/{build,rpms,sources,specs,srpms}[[email protected] ~]# tree-n ~/rpmbuild// Root/rpmbuild/├──build Storage Source Code ├──rpms storage for the RPM production process to manage the spec file ├──sources extracted files stored here ├──specs stored by R Pmbuild prepared binary Package └──srpms storage Rpmbuild made good source bundle 5 directories, 0 files

3. Download the source package

[Email protected] ~]# wget-p ~/rpmbuild/sources/http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.4.7.tar.gz

4. Creating a. spec file

[[email protected] ~]# cd  ~/rpmbuild/specs[[email protected] specs]#  Vim nginx.specsname: nginxversion: 1.4.7release: 1%{?dist}summary: nginx rmp  package productiongroup: applications/archivinglicense: gplv2url: http:// www.nginx.orgSource: http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.4.7.tar.gzBuildRoot: % (mktemp -ud % {_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-xxxxxx) Buildrequires: gccrequires: openssl,openssl-devel, pcre-devel,pcre%descriptioncustom nginx rpm package%preprm -rf  $RPM _build_dir/ nginx-1.4.7tar fx  $RPM _source_dir/nginx-1.4.7.tar.gz%buildcd nginx-1.4.7./configure -- prefix=/home/application/nginx --with-http_ssl_module --with-http_stub_status_module -- with-http_gzip_static_modulemake %{?_smp_mflags}%installrm -rf %{buildroot}cd  Nginx-1.4.7make install destdir=%{buildroot}%cleAnrm -rf %{buildroot}%files%defattr (-,root,root,-)/home/application/nginx

6. Start RPM production

[Email protected] specs]# RPMBUILD-BB Nginx.spec

6. Test RPM Package

[[email protected] specs]# yum -y install /root/rpmbuild/rpms/x86_64/ nginx-1.4.7-1.el6.x86_64.rpmloaded plugins: fastestmirrorsetting up install  Processexamining /root/rpmbuild/rpms/x86_64/nginx-1.4.7-1.el6.x86_64.rpm: nginx-1.4.7-1.el6.x86_ 64marking /root/rpmbuild/rpms/x86_64/nginx-1.4.7-1.el6.x86_64.rpm to be installedloading  mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: mirrors.btte.net *  epel: ftp.riken.jp * extras: mirrors.btte.net * updates:  Mirrors.btte.netresolving dependencies--> running transaction check---> Package  nginx.x86_64 0:1.4.7-1.el6 will be installed--> finished dependency  resolutiondependencies resolved==================================================================== ============================================================================================================================================== package                                        arch                                           Version                                             Repository                                                          size================================== =============================================================================================================== =================================================================installing: nginx                                          x86_64                                         1.4.7-1.el6                                         /nginx-1.4.7-1.el6.x86_64                                         732 ktransaction summary========== =============================================================================================================== =========================================================================================install        1 package (s) total size: 732 kinstalled size: 732  kdownloading packages:running rpm_check_debugrunning transaction testtransaction  test succeededrunning transaction  installing : nginx-1.4.7-1.el6.x86_64                                                                                                                                                                                 1/1   verifying  : nginx-1.4.7-1.el6.x86_64                                                                                                                                                                       &Nbsp;        1/1installed:  nginx.x86_64 0:1.4.7-1.el6                                                                                                                                                                                               complete!
