DSL of RPM Builder

The rpm task is responsible for building Debian packages using Setup Builder.

The following options are available to the deb task:

rpm {

    // Sets the installation root of the software application
    // defaults to /usr/share/{setupBuilder.application}
    installationRoot = "/usr/share/my-application"
    
    // defines a file that will be stored in /etc/default/{serviceName}
    // ususally contains default information for the service starter.
    defaultServiceFile = "default-service.txt" 
    
    // a script that will be included into the default service starter script
    additionalServiceScript = "<script>"
    
    // true (default), if the default service (aka the first service defined)
    // should start after installation
    startDefaultService = false
    
    // The user the services will be executed with, defaults to root
    daemonUser = "root" 
    
    // Architecture of the installer, defaults to "noarch"
    architecture = "noarch"

    // List of software components the application depends on
    depends = "java | python3"
    
    // the section is alike the category, defaults to "Application/Productivity"
    section = "Application/Productivity"
    
    // sets the homepage of the vendor for this application
    homepage = "https://www.inetsoftware.de"
}

The following additional options are available to the rpm task:

rpm {

    // optional, true (default) to indicate that this package is compatible with its predecessor
    backwardCompatible = true

    // optional, size to expect when the package is installed.
    installSize = "10"

    // Licensing information for the SPEC file of this package
    license = ""

    // information for the SPEC file of this package
    release = ""

    // String of summary for this package. Used in the SPEC file.
    summary = "This is my application."
    
    // Entry string that will be used in the %prep entry of the SPEC file.
    // can be used multiple times
    prep = ""
    
    // Entry string that will be used in the %clean entry of the SPEC file.
    // can be used multiple times
    clean = ""
    
    // Entry string that will be used in the %install entry of the SPEC file.
    // can be used multiple times
    install = ""
    
    // Entry string that will be used in the %build entry of the SPEC file.
    // can be used multiple times
    build = ""
}

To allow even more customization during installation you can use several installation script entry points. Please have a look at the specifc documentation.
