Alpine Package
Alpine Packages are packages for Alpine Linux and installable via apk.
Setup
The alpine-sdk is a metapackage that pulls in the most essential packages used to build new packages. Also install and configure a way to elevate privileges, such as sudo or doas, and an editor, such as vi, nano, micro.
apk add alpine-sdk
addgroup user abuild
Generate a key for package creation:
abuild-keygen -a -i
Build
For you build you need a APKBUILD file and abuild as a packaging tool.
Usage:
abuild checksum: updates the checksums for source files.abuild -r: builds the package.
Building in a chroot
Install package abuild-rootbld:
apk add abuild-rootbld
You may now build your packages from source in an unprivileged sandbox based on bubblewrap with the command:
abuild rootbld
If the build process needs network access there has to bet set the net option in APKBUILD.
Bumping a package version
The tool abump is a utility to bump pkgver in APKBUILD files if the package gets an update to a newer upstream release. abump will update the package's pkgver, rebuild it and create a new commit with the resulting changes.
