Hi. I've been trying to use the FreeBSD ports framework as a
basis for building and installing interdependent software modules at
work. The source code is fetched from a CVS repository, and I would
like to avoid having to manually fetch the source files and create a
distribution file.
I have been looking at bsd.port.mk, and it seems that I could
modify the do-extract target to fetch the required module(s) from CVS:
(Note: the code below uses the target post-extract instead, but it
should be possible to place it in bsd.port.mk instead.)
Is this something that would make sense to add to the ports
system? Alternatively, can anybody see a way of achieving this
without modifying bsd.port.mk or "stealing" the post-extract target?
(Actually, I see a way: I could override the do-extract target in a
separate include file.)
# In the port Makefile:
PORTNAME=mystuff
PORTVERSION=1.0.2
# Need to explicitly clear DISTFILES, as the source files will be
# fetched from CVS
DISTFILES=
CVSMODULE=mystuff
CVSTAG=REL_1_0_2
# In a system make include file:
# Note: no default for CVS_RSH
CVSROOT?=myserver.my.domain:/cvs
CVSTAG?=HEAD
CVSCMD?=cvs
CVSDIR?=${PORTNAME}-${PORTVERSION}
post-extract:
@for mod in ${CVSMODULES}; do \
if ! (cd ${WRKDIR} && \
CVSROOT=${CVSROOT} ${CVSCMD} co -r ${CVSTAG} \
-d ${CVSDIR} $${mod}) \
then \
exit 1; \
fi \
done
