NFPM

NFPM is Not FPM - a simple deb and rpm packager written in Go.

Why

While fpm is great, for me, it is a bummer that it depends on ruby, tar and other softwares.

I wanted something that could be used as a binary and/or as a library and that was really simple.

So I created NFPM: a simpler, 0-dependency, as-little-assumptions-as-possible alternative to fpm.

Usage

Check the documentation at https://nfpm.goreleaser.com

Special thanks 🙏

Thanks to the fpm authors for fpm, which inspires nfpm a lot.

Functions

func Register

func Register(format string, p Packager)

Register a new packager for the given format.

func Validate

func Validate(info *Info) error

Validate the given Info and returns an error if it is invalid.

Types

type Config

type Config struct {
	Info      `yaml:",inline"`
	Overrides map[string]Overridables `yaml:"overrides,omitempty"`
}

Config contains the top level configuration for packages.

func Parse

func Parse(in io.Reader) (config Config, err error)

Parse decodes YAML data from an io.Reader into a configuration struct.

func ParseFile

func ParseFile(path string) (config Config, err error)

ParseFile decodes YAML data from a file path into a configuration struct.

func (*Config) Get

func (c *Config) Get(format string) (info *Info, err error)

Get returns the Info struct for the given packager format. Overrides for the given format are merged into the final struct.

func (*Config) Validate

func (c *Config) Validate() error

Validate ensures that the config is well typed.

type Deb

type Deb struct {
	Scripts         DebScripts  `yaml:"scripts,omitempty"`

}

Deb is custom configs that are only available on deb packages.

type DebScripts

type DebScripts struct {
	Rules string `yaml:"rules,omitempty"`
}

DebScripts is scripts only available on deb packages.

type DebTriggers

type DebTriggers struct {
	Interest        []string `yaml:"interest,omitempty"`

type ErrFieldEmpty

type ErrFieldEmpty struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

ErrFieldEmpty happens when some required field is empty.

func (ErrFieldEmpty) Error

func (e ErrFieldEmpty) Error() string

type ErrNoPackager

type ErrNoPackager struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

ErrNoPackager happens when no packager is registered for the given format.

func (ErrNoPackager) Error

func (e ErrNoPackager) Error() string

type Info

type Info struct {
	Overridables `yaml:",inline"`
	Name         string `yaml:"name,omitempty"`
