add snapcraft.yaml for Linux packages of fluxctl

[dholbach]

This creates a snap of fluxctl, prerequisite is:

sudo snap install snapcraft --classic
sudo snap install multipass --beta --classic
snapcraft

Next step would be

• register on Snap store
• push initial snap of 'edge' release (current HEAD)
• ask for classic personal-files permissions (https://forum.snapcraft.io/c/store-requests)
• get package and classic permissions approved
• hook this up with the build infrastructure → moving this to a new issue/OR

[dholbach]

https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/fluxctl-snap-want-to-be-classic/11073/2 is the current stand of things.

[dholbach]

Apparently we don't need classic confinement.

What're the minikube files mentioned in the YAML @dholbach ?

[dholbach]

They're not really required. Removing.

[dholbach]

@squaremo Apparently, they're needed after all:

[daniel@reef flux ]$ fluxctl identity
Error: Could not load kubernetes configuration file: invalid configuration: [unable to read client-cert /home/daniel/.minikube/client.crt for minikube due to open /home/daniel/.minikube/client.crt: permission denied, unable to read client-key /home/daniel/.minikube/client.key for minikube due to open /home/daniel/.minikube/client.key: permission denied, unable to read certificate-authority /home/daniel/.minikube/ca.crt for minikube due to open /home/daniel/.minikube/ca.crt: permission denied]
Run 'fluxctl identity --help' for usage.
[daniel@reef flux ]$ 

[squaremo]

they're needed after all

What about people that aren't using minikube? What exactly is the purpose of that section of the YAML?

[dholbach]

This part of the YAML allows fluxctl to read these files (https://docs.snapcraft.io/personal-files-interface).

[dholbach]

The package was approved in the Snap store. I pushed it to the edge channel.

Running snap install --edge fluxctl will download and install it. Testing welcome.

Next step would be to hook it up with our build infrastructure.

Great job @dholbach !!!

[dholbach]

Maybe let's merge this as is for now and then solve whatever's required for publishing master builds to edge and tagged commits to stable.

[dholbach]

I pushed a stable (1.12.3) fluxctl to the store now too. Time to hook things up with CI.

I am not aware of the details of snapcraft.yaml files, but bash / command wise this looks OK to me. Thanks Daniel 🌷
