"Ease of use may be invisible, but its absence sure isn’t." - IBM
Packages are an important way that software is distributed and used. In this exercise you will create a Centos RPM package of a Node.js project which runs a small web server. This package provides the web server and is part of a larger software solution which is sold to and used by paying customers, mostly enterprise businesses.
Provide a Github repository which contains all files for packaging. This repo should use a CI system (Github Actions, etc) to build and publish the RPM as a release to the Github repo. The package should follow Centos standards where possible for packaging a web server but strive to preserve the confidentiality of the source code.
- Please refer to the How To Approach These Problems section of this repo's README file for more information on how to approach this work.
- This web server is available as a standard NPM package archive in
additional_material/nodejs-webserver-1-1.4.2.tgz.
