Feature: packaged distributions.

Open robertdebock opened this issue 7 years ago • 11 comments

Hi,

Would it be an idea to package sudo-pair into shipable formats such as:

  • binary in a tar.gz
  • rpm
  • deb
  • apk

I'm able to assist in a RPM at least.

In order to have this feature, I think these items are required:

  • A CI/CD pipeline to build packages if you release a new version of sudo-pair. Maybe travis-ci.
  • (RPM) A spec file describing the build process and the installation.
  • (deb) A control-file like the spec file.
  • An artifact store.

I understand it's quite a request, so if I can help you anywhere, please involve me.

Regards, Robert de Bock.

I'm open to the plugin itself being packaged for distributions, but some care needs to be done when doing this. To enable it for real, you really need to configure it for your own environment: sudoer and pairer prompts, and /etc/sudo.conf. And those aren't things I think are easy to guess at or do automatically. Still, apt-get install libsudo_pair is tempting, even if there's some extra legwork remaining to actually turn it on.

Agreed, I guess you want to make it easy to install the plugin itself, to prevent people from needing to built it themselves. You could include some sample configurations in /usr/share/doc or so.

I don't have time for that at the moment, but I'll leave this issue open since it's something I'd like to do. PRs welcome. :)

I'm working on the RPM build. Should start to work today or tomorrow. When it's working, I'll make a pull request.

For what it's worth, I just filed an Intent To Package bug in Debian.

@nbraud Did you ever get a chance to package this for Debian?

Is this thing sudo_pair or sudo-pair? Please pick one or the other and stick with it, it's very confusing.

As far as I'm aware, every mention of the project is sudo_pair. If there's somewhere it's not, please let me know.

As far as I'm aware, every mention of the project is sudo_pair. If there's somewhere it's not, please let me know.

It's in contrib/sudo-pair.spec.

[mockbuild@vm-rh7 SOURCES]$ tar -tzpf sudo_pair-v0.11.1.tar.gz | grep sudo-pair sudo_pair-sudo_pair-v0.11.1/contrib/sudo-pair.spec

[mockbuild@vm-rh7 SOURCES]$ tar -xzpf sudo_pair-v0.11.1.tar.gz

[mockbuild@vm-rh7 SOURCES]$ find sudo_pair-sudo_pair-v0.11.1 -type f -print0 | xargs -0 egrep -l sudo-pair sudo_pair-sudo_pair-v0.11.1/contrib/sudo-pair.spec

That's something I can fix, I'll make a PR for it.
