Planex Build Status

Planex is a toolkit for building collections of interdependent RPMs. The main tools are:

  • planex-depend - extracts dependencies from Spec files, in make format
  • planex-fetch - downloads sources specified in Spec files
  • planex-cache - similar to ccache, caches previous builds to speed up rebuilds
  • planex-pin - for developers, overrides Spec file sources with local development repositories

Planex also contains a generic makefile which handles dependency resolution and sequences the build. Partial rebuilds and concurrent builds are both supported. By default, packages are built in mock chroots but this can be changed by overriding a variable in the makefile.

Planex runs on RedHat- and Debian-like Linux distributions.

Usage

Building a Planex project is straightforward. The Planex repository includes a small demo project:

cd planex-demo
make

See the planex-demo README for a more advanced tutorial, including how to use planex-pin for development.
