jenkins-rpm-build

An RPM containing scripts to assist with configuring Jenkins RPM building projects

Usage

As the name implies, this functionality is dependant on you having a RedHat/CentOS host with a running instance of Jenkins installed. This RPM lists the dependencies needed to build other RPMs, so once installed yum install jenkins-rpm-build.rpm your host will pick up all the needed tools.

Once this RPM has been built and installed you'd build an RPM projects as follows:

• Configure RPM source project version control (svn/git). If many RPMs are packaged into a single project consider using the File System SCM plugin to create individual RPM builds from a single project checkout
• Use the free-style software project to configure a new job to build the RPM project ensuring that the name of the Jenkins job is the same as the name of the rpm.
• In the Build section of the job configuration screen, click the Add build step drop-down and choose the Execute shell option. In this command window you'd add the /usr/local/bin/jenkins-build-rpm.sh script
