If you have some Fedora related project and you want to your output an RPM package, then you can use the
tito tool.
This tool comes with the version 0.6.12 and today is finally out!
The team of
this software comes with this intro:
Tito is a tool for managing RPM based projects using git for their source code repository.
Let's install it:
[root@desk mythcat]# dnf search tito

[root@desk mythcat]# dnf install tito.noarch
...
Complete!
[root@desk mythcat]# systemctl daemon-reload
Let's see the arguments of this tool:
[mythcat@desk django]$ tito
Usage: tito MODULENAME --help
Supported modules:
build - Build packages.
init - Initialize directory for use by tito.
release - Build and release to yum repos
report - Display various reports on the repo.
tag - Tag package releases.
Before you use this tool you need to have these folders into your project folder:
docs/
mypackage.spec
README
.tito/
src/
test/
Let's try to use it with my old django project in the directory with the git checkout of your project.
[mythcat@desk projects]$ cd django/
[mythcat@desk django]$ tito init
Creating tito metadata in: /home/mythcat/projects/django/.tito
- created /home/mythcat/projects/django/.tito
- wrote tito.props
- created /home/mythcat/projects/django/.tito/packages
- wrote /home/mythcat/projects/django/.tito/packages/.readme
- committed to git
Done!
This creates a
.tito folder.
Now I can create my .spec file named
django_project.spec:
%if 0%{?rhel} > 7 || 0%{?fedora}

%global use_python2 0
%global ourpythonbin %{__python3}

Push: git push --follow-tags origin
Use the
git tool for push:
git push && git push origin some-tag-1.0
If you do not want to push it to a remote repository, you must add to the following commands option
--offline.
[mythcat@desk django]$ tito build --tgz [--offline]
[mythcat@desk django]$ tito build --srpm [--offline]
[mythcat@desk django]$ tito build --rpm [--offline]
This last command execute all previous steps in one and call rpmbuild on that SRPM file which will produce binary rpm package.
