👷 Building of cross platform packages for minicron

minicron build

Rough instructons on how to build minicron.

Requirements

• Ruby 2.2.1 on OSX/Linux

Instructions

• Clone this repo and minicron locally.

• Install core dependencies

gem install bundler geminabox

• Start the geminabox server

cd ~/path/to/minicron-build
rackup gem-server/config.ru

• Build and install the minicron gem

cd ~/path/to/minicron
bundle
gem build minicron.gemspec

• Push the minicron gem to the local gem server

gem push minicron-*VERSION*.gem --host http://127.0.0.1:9999

• Build the minicron package(s)

cd ~/path/to/minicron-build/build
bundle
rake package

This should create 3 directories with the naming scheme minicron-VERSION-PLATFORM where platform is one of osx, linux-x86, linux-x86_64 and version is 0.9.6. To only package minicron for one platform you can append :platform to the rake task e.g rake package:osx.

• Run minicron!

minicron-0.9.6-linux-x86_64/minicron -v

There should now be an executable shell script in each of the 3 directories
