RPM Package

[amjith]

@herlo Volunteered to build a Fedora RPM package for pgcli. Thank you for your help!

[Erethon]

If you need more people working on this, let me know.

[herlo]

Feel free to start on it, I'm likely going to be a little while before I
can get started.

@amjith Is this still an issue? I can help on this one.

I have some experience in it: https://github.com/sobolevn/git-secret/blob/master/Makefile#L111

[amjith]

@sobolevn I'd welcome any help. This is not a solved problem. Thank you for your help.

[sobolevn]

Isn't is solved via https://github.com/dbcli/pgcli/blob/master/Vagrantfile#L79 ?
DEVELOP.rst also says that there's a way to create RPM: https://github.com/dbcli/pgcli/blob/master/DEVELOP.rst#building-rpm-and-deb-packages

[amjith]

That didn't work out as I expected. When I created an RPM package it wouldn't install inside a test Centos container. I think there was some problem with assuming that some files existed or hardcoded path.

[amjith]

I should probably remove that file and update the docs.

[sobolevn]

Ok, I have managed to run it. But there's an issue with prompt_toolkit.

Environment

I have used this docker-image: https://hub.docker.com/r/sobolevn/git-secret with fedora-latest tag.

[root@30722cfb4b5b code]# yum install -y python python-devel postgresql postgresql-server postgresql-devel createrepo

Package creation

At this point due to some kind of bug (possibly jordansissel/fpm#65) I had to comment out the line # 'prompt_toolkit>=1.0.0,<1.1.0',. Another option is to provide all the deps by hand with --no-auto-depends flag. I will also create a separate bug report for it.

[root@30722cfb4b5b repo]# fpm -s python -t rpm --after-install ../post-install --after-remove ../post-remove -d python-devel -d postgresql-devel -d python2-prompt_toolkit --python-pip pip ../setup.py
Created package {:path=>"python-pgcli-1.2.0-1.noarch.rpm"}

Creating repo

I was just following the steps from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13876875/how-to-make-rpm-auto-install-dependencies I have also provided these options to disable caching: metadata_expire=1 mirrorlist_expire=1

[amjith]

Sorry about the delayed response. I've run into issues with psycopg2 when I generated an rpm with the fpm package.

Something about the python-dev package and not having the right requirement for it.

[jhermann]

Try pip install --user -U pip before you call fpm (you need pip>8 for proper PyPI handling). At least on Xenial creating a DEB shows no problems, and creates this for dependencies:

Depends: python-pgspecial (>= 1.8.0), python-click (>= 4.1), python-pygments (>= 2.0),
 python-prompt-toolkit (>= 1.0.10), python-prompt-toolkit (<< 1.1.0), python-psycopg2 (>= 2.5.4),
 python-sqlparse (<< 0.3.0), python-sqlparse (>= 0.2.2), python-configobj (>= 5.0.6),
 python-humanize (>= 0.5.1), python-wcwidth (>= 0.1.6), python-setproctitle (>= 1.1.9)

[sammcj]

Any update on this?

We'd really like to have it properly packaged for os-wide version control and for deployment to servers that we don't want to install pip on.

I made a quick and dirty package for CentOS 7 using fpm

fpm -s python -t rpm --python-pip pip pgcli

python-pgcli-1.7.0-1.noarch.rpm.zip

And for Debian 8/9:

fpm -s python -t deb --python-pip pip pgcli

python-pgcli_1.7.0_all.deb.zip

[meeuw]

@sammcj I've search at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/ but there's no request for it (yet). I'll have a look if I can use the mysql package as a template for a pgcli package.

Maybe I can combine this with my attempt to get mycli in EPEL (CentOS repository).

[sammcj]

It doesn’t have to be in the official RedHat repo! You could for example use packagecloud.io to host an rpm repo for it.

Or bintray

[meeuw]

Thanks, those are great suggestions, but I'm using the .spec files from the RPMs which are already in Fedora so I think I should keep it at RedHat. Fedora has COPR where everyone can host/build RPMs, I'm already using that for a EPEL mycli repository.

[amjith]

@meeuw Is this now addressed? Can we close this?

[meeuw]

nope, haven't finished this

[chicks-net]

Does anyone want help landing this? Is there any partial work to land?

A friend pointed out your request for assistance on your main page. I've spent most of the last few months doing packaging a python application. I'm happy to help if help is still desired.

[meeuw]

Hi @chicks-net! Thanks for offering your help!
I've submitted it as a package for Fedora but it isn't accepted (and I don't see any progress). I need a supporter from Red Hat / Fedora to be accepted as a packager.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1570551

I'm not sure for what OS you'd like to have a package but I have created copr packages here:
