Simple RPM package Creation

Simple RPM package Creation

Today, in order to test and build your own yum repository and install the upgrade software package, you need an rpm package for testing, so you think of yourself as the simplest rpm, because it is just a test, no file to be compiled is added, but only a shell file is used to output the cute Hello World.

1. First download and install the rpm package preparation Tool

$ Sudo yum install-y rpm-build rpmdevtools
2. Run rpmdev-setuptree to generate the skeleton directory of an rpm package.

$ Rpmdev-setuptreer

By default, the pmdev-setuptree command will create an RPM under the root directory of the current user to build the root directory structure ~ /Rpmbuild/

3. Generate source code package

Mkdir-p ~ // Rpmbuild/SOURCES/helloworld-1.0.0
Touch ~ /Rpmbuild/SOURCES/helloworld-1.0.0/helloworld
Chmod 755 ~ /Rpmbuild/SOURCES/helloworld-1.0.0/helloworld
Echo "#! /Bin/sh ">> ~ /Rpmbuild/SOURCES/helloworld-1.0.0/helloworld
Echo "echo Hello World! ">> ~ /Rpmbuild/SOURCES/helloworld-1.0.0/helloworld
Cd ~ /Rpmbuild/SOURCES; tar zcvf helloworld-1.0.0.tar.gz helloworld-1.0.0

4. In ~ Use rpmdev-newspec in the/rpmbuild/SPECS directory to generate a spec skeleton File

$ Rpmdev-newspec helloworld. spec

Edit the helloworld. spec file with the following content:

Name: helloworld
Version: 1.0.0
Release: 1% {? Dist}
Summary: helloworld

Group: Development/Tools
License: GPL
# URL:

5. Package

Rpmbuild-ba SPECS/helloworld. spec

6. Test
6.1 installation test

Sudo yum install ~ // Rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/helloworld-1.0.0-1.el6.x86_64.rpm

6.2 upgrade Test
Modify the helloworld. spec file and change Release

Release: 2% {? Dist}

Then run "rpmbuild-ba SPECS/helloworld. spec" to package

Finally, run the following command to upgrade the rpm package.

Sudo yum update ~ // Rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/helloworld-1.0.0-2.el6.x86_64.rpm
