2024-01-22doc(version): extensively revamp documentation for version subcommandsLevente Polyak
Enhanced and overhauled the documentation for the 'version' subcommand. The improvements include comprehensive details on the subcommand's behavior, usage, and a variety of scenarios it handles. Added a central section within the pkgctl-version manpage that documents the nvchecker configuration and rules. Component: pkgctl version Singled-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2024-01-22feat(version): use exit code for check to indicate out-of-date versionsLevente Polyak
It can be handy to have an exit code that allows better status indication or chaining. On exit, return one of the following codes: - 0: Normal exit condition, all checked versions are up-to-date - 1: Unknown cause of failure - 2: Normal exit condition, but there are out-of-date versions - 3: Failed to run some version checks Component: pkgctl version check Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2024-01-22feat(version): add verbose option to display up-to-date versionsLevente Polyak
Sometimes it can be desired to get a results for each entry even if the current version is up-to-date. Add a --verbose option to print this optional detail. Component: pkgctl version check Component: pkgctl version upgrade Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2024-01-21feat(version): support nvchecker keyfile from user config homeLevente Polyak
This adds support for global keyfile from the user config home XDG_CONFIG_HOME which allows to set tokens for GitHub and GitLab for certain nvchecker configuration. When ~/.config/nvchecker/keyfile.toml exists, it will automatically be appended as keyfile of the local .nvchecker.toml file. Component: pkgctl version check Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2024-01-21feat(upgrade): introduce the version upgrade subcommandChristian Heusel
This subcommand applies the detected upstream version upgrades to a PKGBUILD. Component: pkgctl version upgrade Co-authored-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Christian Heusel <christian@heusel.eu>
2024-01-10feat(version): introduce version check subcommandJelle van der Waa
The version subcommand handles pkgver related commands, the first subcommand being `check`. Check runs nvchecker if a `.nvchecker.toml` file exists and compares the current pkgver with the latest release. Introduces nvchecker as optional dependency which has to be installed in order to use this particular subcommand. BREAKING CHANGE: formerly pkgctl version would output the version of the pkgctl tool, now it is used as a version related subcommand. Fixes #140 Component: pkgctl version Component: pkgctl version check Co-authored-by: Christian Heusel <christian@heusel.eu>
2024-01-09feat(aur): add subcommand to drop a package from the repos to the AURChristian Heusel
Add an aur command to interact with the Arch User Repository including the drop-from-repo subommand which allows to drop packages from the official repository to the Arch User Repository in one go. Related to #143 Component: pkgctl aur drop-from-repo Co-authored-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Christian Heusel <christian@heusel.eu>
2024-01-07feat(search): add optional plain output formattingLevente Polyak
This allows to run the search command without bats, which is not used in the default pretty output format. Component: pkgctl search Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2024-01-07feat(search): add subcommand to search across the packaging groupJelle van der Waa
Search for an expression across the GitLab packaging group. To use a filter, include it in your query. You may use wildcards (*) to use glob matching. Available filters for the blobs scope: path, extension. Every usage of the search command must be authenticated. Consult the 'pkgctl auth' command to authenticate with GitLab or view the authentication status. This command uses bats for pretty printing the results including line numbers and syntax highlighting. Component: pkgctl search Co-authored-by: Christian Heusel <christian@heusel.eu> Co-authored-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2024-01-05chore(build): use more intuitive update-checksums option for humansLevente Polyak
The philosophy of our CLI is to provide options that better match human expectations in an intuitive way rather than mimic wording of previous tools with abbreviation. Component: pkgctl build Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2023-12-19feat(configure): ship default ignore via excludeLevente Polyak
BREAKING CHANGE: Increments the repo spec version which requires to reconfigure all existing packaging repo clones. Fixes #129 Component: pkgctl repo configure Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2023-11-26feat(web): implement option to print the URL instead of opening itChristian Heusel
In certain situations, users may encounter limitations when unable to utilize xdg-open (e.g., when connected to an Arch machine via SSH). Consequently, this commit introduces the option to simply print the repository link to copy or click on it. Signed-off-by: Christian Heusel <christian@heusel.eu> Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2023-11-26feat(makerepropkg): Add option to skip running check for speedupkpcyrd
Add -n to allow running makepkg with --nocheck. This is useful to reduce the time required to reproduce a package, as they should not depend on running the check function for being reproducible. Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2023-11-26feat(makechrootpkg): add option to interactively inspect the chrootLevente Polyak
Implement the -x option for makechrootpkg which allows to get an interactive shell in the chroot after building the package. Useful to ease the debugging of a package build. Depending on the argument, the interactive shell is either always spawned or only when an error occurred during build. This option is also forwarded from `pkgctl build` via the `--inspect` flag. Component: pkgctl build Component: makechrootpkg Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2023-11-24chore(docs): correct the manpage for pkgctl db updateChristian Heusel
Turns out the manpages of pkgctl db update and pkgctl db move were just switched without having the page title adjusted. Fixing the initial error therefore turned out to create the same problem for the manpage of pkgctl db update, which this commit re-fixes. Fixes: 5e3ab4b321072b576ba0e5d8722c39f7a7768911 ("chore(docs): correct the manpage for pkgctl db move") Fixes: f834fc4700053cb9a83956c98835b0a158cc054c ("db: command for Pacman database modification like update, move etc") Fixes #195 Component: pkgctl db update Signed-off-by: Christian Heusel <christian@heusel.eu>
2023-11-20chore(docs): correct the manpage for pkgctl db moveChristian Heusel
So far the manpage for pkgctl db move seemed to be a copy of the pkgctl db update manpage which caused an error upon install as the move page was not created. Instead compiling this manpage overwrote the one for pkgctl db update which this commit fixes. Fixes: f834fc4700053cb9a83956c98835b0a158cc054c ("db: command for Pacman database modification like update, move etc") Fixes #195 Component: pkgctl db move Signed-off-by: Christian Heusel <christian@heusel.eu>
2023-11-20feat(build): add --updpkgsums optionChristian Heusel
This is useful so people who update patches etc. can update their checksums on building. The functionality itself was already implemented for --pkgver, but was not available separately. Fixes #168 Component: pkgctl build Signed-off-by: Christian Heusel <christian@heusel.eu>
2023-07-06chore: fix spelling mistake packge -> packageChristian Heusel
it seems like the mistake was copied to a few locations, this commit fixes it. Signed-off-by: Christian Heusel <christian@heusel.eu>
2023-05-24feature(clone): add protocol option to force cloning over HTTPSLevente Polyak
This is a rather quick and simple implementation to override the current logic and force clone with HTTPS. Allowing to explicitly clone over HTTPS is currently required to unblock reproducible builds where no ssh keys and GitLab user accounts are set up as of now. Hence this quick solution comes into play to mitigate the regression on reproducible builds builders. Revisit the overall auto detection and protocol logic approach for a later release related to some ideas floating around in pending merge-requests. Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2023-05-20feature(parallel): run up to N jobs in parallel for repo clone/configureLevente Polyak
Run up to N jobs in parallel. By default the number of jobs is equal to the number of available processing units. For sequential processing this option needs to be passed with 1. Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2023-05-20pkgctl build: support worker slots for none tty buildsLevente Polyak
Allow overriding the worker slot with a dedicated option. Furthermore detect if the current tty is no pts and fall back to choosing a random worker slot between 1 and number of available processing units. Fixes #137 Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>

2023-05-20pkgctl repo clone: add option to switch working treeChristian Heusel
Add an option to call the switch command after clone. Switch to a specified version. The working tree and the index are updated to match the version. Signed-off-by: Christian Heusel <christian@heusel.eu> Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2023-05-20build: allow release options only in combination with --releaseChristian Heusel
It leads to weird expectations when using --db-update or --message without --release. Make the behavior more user friendly, by aborting the operation and explaining that release options only work in conjunction with the release option. Fixes #131 Signed-off-by: Christian Heusel <christian@heusel.eu>

2023-05-20build: support nocheck for initial bootstrap buildsLevente Polyak
Output a warning when this option is used to remind packagers to rebuild the packages with checks once the bootstrap cycle has been completed.
2023-05-20config: allow suppying the gitlab token via env varChristian Heusel
This would allow to supply the gitlab tokens via the env var DEVTOOLS_GITLAB_TOKEN and therefore allow users to choose whatever program they want to fill this env var. Closes #113 Signed-off-by: Christian Heusel <christian@heusel.eu> Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2023-05-20doc: update manpage footer for GitLab and remove static list of maintainersLevente Polyak
The list of all maintainers that have worked so far on devtools is exceeding a sane amount making each manpage convulsed. The authors can be pulled from GitLab directly without occupying lots of space on every manpage. We would like to express gratitude to all our maintainers. Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>
2023-05-20repo-configure: automatically determine protocol from packager identityLevente Polyak

2023-05-20build: command to build packages inside a clean chrootLevente Polyak
2023-05-20conf: move makepkg and pacman config into separate conf.d dirsLevente Polyak
We have used the datadir like a kitchen sink, lets clean up a bit by having a better and well structured layout. Put makepkg and pacman configs in separate directories: makepkg.conf.d and pacman.conf.d.
2023-05-19release: command to commit, tag and upload build artifactsLevente Polyak
This is a smart and more convenient invocation of the classical commitpkg and archrelease with auto-discovery for target repositories and a shorthand option to directly call db-update.

2023-05-19pkgctl: add a unified command-line frontend for devtoolsLevente Polyak
This is the first step of a simple and highly structured unified interface to devtools commands in a single wrapper. The split is based on groups like `repo`, `build` and `diff` Signed-off-by: Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org>

2022-08-31diffpkg: prefer to search inside the pool dir if availableLevente Polyak
On certain packaging machines where the pacman cache gets updated very infrequently, the behavior of diffpkg may not function correctly as old packages were to be downloaded as diff target. In such cases we look for a pool directory first and search via a glob for an available pool package sorted by version. The pool search glob has three glob segments each disallowing the dash delimiter to split across pkgrel, pkgver and arch. This will return the correct package from the pool without considering overly eager wildcards that potentially match different pkgnames. The default pool search directory is /srv/ftp/pool
2022-08-31diffpkg: allow to set column width for side-by-side viewLevente Polyak
The magic values `columns` and `auto` allow to set specific aspects, with 'auto' as the default value: - auto: Set width to the maximum line length of all input files - columns: Set width to the shell defined $COLUMNS env var Furthermore any number can be passed to set a static width.
