As Red Hat based linux distributions share the same type of package repository, rework the fedora lister into a generic one to list RPM source packages and their versions from numerous distributions. For a given distribution, the RPM lister will fetch packages metadata from a list of release identifiers and a list of software components. Source packages are then processed and relevant info are extracted to be sent to the RPM loader. When all releases and components were processed, the lister collected all versions for each package name and send those info to the scheduler that will create RPM loading tasks afterwards. Nevertheless, as there is no generic way to list all releases and components for a given distribution but also to guess the right URL to retrieve packages metadata from, those info need to be manually provided to the lister as input parameters. Some examples of those parameters for various distributions can be found in the config directory of the lister. Regarding the produced origin URLs, as there is no way to find valid HTTP ones for all distributions, the same behavior as with the debian lister is used and they have the following form: rpm://{instance}/packages/{package_name} where the instance variable corresponds to the name of the listed distribution such as Fedora, CentOS, or openSUSE.

==========
|
|
|
|
This component from the Software Heritage stack aims to produce listings
|
|
of software origins and their urls hosted on various public developer platforms
|
|
or package managers. As these operations are quite similar, it provides a set of
|
|
Python modules abstracting common software origins listing behaviors.
|
|
|
|
It also provides several lister implementations, contained in the
|
|
following Python modules:
|
|
|
|
- `swh.lister.bitbucket`
|
|
- `swh.lister.cgit`
|
|
- `swh.lister.cran`
|
|
- `swh.lister.debian`
|
|
- `swh.lister.gitea`
|
|
- `swh.lister.github`
|
|
- `swh.lister.gitlab`
|
|
- `swh.lister.gnu`
|
|
- `swh.lister.gogs`
|
|
- `swh.lister.golang`
|
|
- `swh.lister.hex`
|
|
- `swh.lister.launchpad`
|
|
- `swh.lister.maven`
|
|
- `swh.lister.npm`
|
|
- `swh.lister.packagist`
|
|
- `swh.lister.phabricator`
|
|
- `swh.lister.pypi`
|
|
- `swh.lister.rpm`
|
|
- `swh.lister.tuleap`

Dependencies

All required dependencies can be found in the `requirements*.txt` files located

at the root of the repository.

## lister configuration
|
|
|
|
Each lister implemented so far by Software Heritage (`bitbucket`, `cgit`, `cran`, `debian`,
|
|
`gitea`, `github`, `gitlab`, `gnu`, `golang`, `launchpad`, `npm`, `packagist`, `phabricator`, `pypi`, `tuleap`, `maven`)
|
|
must be configured by following the instructions below (please note that you have to replace
|
|
`<lister_name>` by one of the lister name introduced above).
|
|
|
|
### Preparation steps
|
|
|
|
1. `mkdir ~/.config/swh/`
|
|
2. create configuration file `~/.config/swh/listers.yml`
|
|
|
|
### Configuration file sample
|
|
|
|
Minimalistic configuration shared by all listers to add in file `~/.config/swh/listers.yml`:
|
|
|
|
```lang=yml
|
|
scheduler:
|
|
cls: 'remote'
|
|
args:
|
|
url: 'http://localhost:5008/'
|
|
|
|
credentials: {}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note: This expects scheduler (5008) service to run locally
|
|
|
|
## Executing a lister
|
|
|
|
Once configured, a lister can be executed by using the `swh` CLI tool with the
|
|
following options and commands:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ swh --log-level DEBUG lister -C ~/.config/swh/listers.yml run --lister <lister_name> [lister_parameters]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ swh --log-level DEBUG lister -C ~/.config/swh/listers.yml run --lister bitbucket
|
|
|
|
$ swh --log-level DEBUG lister -C ~/.config/swh/listers.yml run --lister cran
|
|
|
|
$ swh --log-level DEBUG lister -C ~/.config/swh/listers.yml run --lister gitea url=https://codeberg.org/api/v1/
|
|
|
|
$ swh --log-level DEBUG lister -C ~/.config/swh/listers.yml run --lister gitlab url=https://salsa.debian.org/api/v4/
|
|
|
|
$ swh --log-level DEBUG lister -C ~/.config/swh/listers.yml run --lister npm
|
|
|
|
$ swh --log-level DEBUG lister -C ~/.config/swh/listers.yml run --lister pypi
|
|
```
