# CI plugin to publish Debian package on a Aptly repository
2022-05-02 16:12:52 +02:00
2022-12-13 21:20:16 +01:00
This docker image could be used as an Woodpecker CI plugin to publish one (or more) Debian package on a Aptly repository using its API. It also could be used with Gitlab CI to define a publishing job.
2022-05-02 16:12:52 +02:00
This plugin will try to :
2022-12-13 21:20:16 +01:00
- List all changes files in the specified directory and filter on the specified source package name (if specified)
- Iter on detected changes files and foreach of then:
- the changes file is parsed to detect the source package name, the distribution and included files
- the repository name is computed (if not specified). **Format:** `{prefix}_{distribution}_{component}`. **Note:** if the default prefix is specified (`.`), it will not be used to compute the repository name.
- the current published distribution is retrieved using APTLY Publish API to:
- check it was already manally published a first time
- check it used a snapshot kind of sources
- retrieve other components source snapshot
- Upload the changes file and all its included files using APTLY File Upload API in a directory named as the source package
- Include the changes file using APTLY Local Repos API
- Compute a snapshot name for the repository based on the current date and the repository name. **Format:** `YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS_{repository name}`
- Create a snapshot of the repository using APTLY Local Repos API
- Update the published distribution with this new snapshot as source of the specified component and keeping other components source snapshot.

In case of error, it will exit with a detailed error message (within the limits of what is provided by the Aptly API).

## With Gitlab CI
The following pipeline configuration demonstrates a simple usage to build and publish a debian package:
```
stages:
- build
- publish
build:
image: debian:11
stage: build
rules:
- if: $CI_COMMIT_TAG
script:
- ./build.sh
artifacts:
paths:
- dist/*
publish:
image:
name: brenard/aptly-publish:latest
entrypoint: ["/bin/sh", "-c"]
stage: publish
variables:
APTLY_API_URL: "https://your.aptly.tld/api"
APTLY_API_USERNAME: myproject
APTLY_PREFIX: "debian"
APTLY_REPO_COMPONENT: "main"
APTLY_REPO_NAME: "debian_stable_main"
2022-12-13 21:20:16 +01:00
APTLY_PATH: "dist"
APTLY_SOURCE_NAME: "myproject"
APTLY_MAX_RETRIES: 2
2023-07-19 19:25:29 +02:00
APTLY_FORCE_OVERWRITE: true
2022-12-13 21:20:16 +01:00
script:
- echo "Publish Bullseye debian packages on APT repository..."
- aptly-publish
needs:
- 'build'
rules:
- if: $CI_COMMIT_TAG
```
The parameters are passed using environment variables as designed with a Woodpecker CI plugin. Consequently, you could refer to the previous section for details about these parameters. For the password to request Aptly API, you have to set the `APTLY_API_PASSWORD` CI variable in your Gitlab project configuration (be sure to check _Masked variable_).
