Building for Fedora

Packages needed for the build, or the build requires:

  • make
  • check-devel
  • cmake
  • gcc
  • libsolv-devel
  • libsolv-tools
  • librepo-devel
  • python-devel (or python3-devel for Python 3 build)
  • python-nose (or python3-nose for Python 3 build)
  • rpm-devel
  • glib2-devel
  • gtk-doc
  • gobject-introspection-devel
  • python-sphinx

From the checkout dir::

mkdir build
cd build/
cmake .. # add '-DPYTHON_DESIRED="3"' option for Python 3 build
make

Building the documentation, from the build/ directory::

make doc

Tests

All unit tests should pass after the build finishes:

cd build/tests
make tests

There are two parts of unit tests: unit tests in C and unit tests in Python. To run the C part of the tests manually, from hawkey checkout::

build/tests/test_main tests/repos/

Manually executing the Python tests::

PYTHONPATH=`readlink -f ./build/src/python/` nosetests -s tests/python/tests/

The PYTHONPATH is unfortunately needed as the Python test suite needs to know where to import the built hawkey modules.

Documentation

See the hawkey documentation page <http://hawkey.readthedocs.org>_.

Information internal to the hawkey development is maintained on a github wiki <https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/wiki#wiki-Contact>_.
