NAME

Enbld::Tutorial - Tutorial for use Enbld.

DESCRIPTION

Enbld::Tutorial is detailed description for Enbld's DSL.

INSTALL

To install, use installer.

$ curl -L http://goo.gl/MrbDDB | perl

# 'http://goo.gl/MrbDDB' is link to below address.
# https://raw.github.com/magnolia-k/EnbldInstaller/master/bin/enbld_installer
# Installer download tarball from CPAN, and unpack, install automatically.

or

To install, use 'setup' command.

Download and unpack tarball.

$ tar xvf Enbld-x.xxxx.tar.gz
$ cd Enbld-x.xxxx
$ ./setup

Enbld installs all the components in a $HOME/.enbld directory.Therefore, it is necessary to set the path of the software which Enbld installed.

Add below to .bashrc.

export $PATH=$HOME/.enbld/bin:$HOME/.enbld/sbin:$HOME/.enbld/extlib/bin:$PATH
export MANPATH=$HOME/.enbld/share/man:$HOME/.enbld/man:$MANPATH

Caution at installation

Since you can build perl using Enbld, please be sure to install in a $HOME/.enbld directory using a 'setup' command.

If perl is built using Enbld, it will become impossible to be arranged at the same place as other modules, if it installs using cpan client (e.g. cpanm), but to refer to the module.

'.enbld' DIRECTORY COMPOSITION

'.enbld' directory has the following composition.

$HOME/.enbld --+

               +--log/          Enbld's log files

Enbld installs software to $HOME/depository/[Software Name]/[Version]/ and creates symbolic links to $HOME/bin,$HOME/lib, and so on. Therefore, it can change now easily a newer version.

TUTORIAL FOR DSL

Install latest version

Ready sample configuration file.

$ cat samples/git_install.plx
#!/usr/bin/perl

use 5.012;
use warnings;

use utf8;

use lib "$ENV{HOME}/.enbld/extlib/lib/perl5/";

use Enbld;

enbld 'myenv' => build {

    target 'git' => define {
        version 'latest';
    };

};

$ ./sample/git_install.plx
=====> Start building target 'git'.

...

=====> Finish building target 'git'.
git 1.8.4.1 is installed.
$ git --version
git version 1.8.4.1

* git of the latest version in October 10, 2013 time is git 1.8.4.1.

Install specific version

Rewrite the arguments of 'version' function from 'latest' to '1.8.4'.

$ cat samples/git_install.plx
#!/usr/bin/perl

use 5.012;
use warnings;

use utf8;

use lib "$ENV{HOME}/.enbld/extlib/lib/perl5/";

use Enbld;

enbld 'myenv' => build {

    target 'git' => define {
        version '1.8.4';
    };

};

$ ./sample/git_install.plx
=====> Start building target 'git'.

...

=====> Finish building target 'git'.
git 1.8.4 is installed.
$ git --version
git version 1.8.4

Upgrade installed software

Re-rewrite the arguments of 'version' function from '1.8.4' to 'latest'.

$ cat samples/git_install.plx
#!/usr/bin/perl

use 5.012;
use warnings;

use utf8;

use lib "$ENV{HOME}/.enbld/extlib/lib/perl5/";

use Enbld;

enbld 'myenv' => build {

    target 'git' => define {
        version 'latest';
    };

};

$ ./sample/git_install.plx
=====> Start building target 'git'.

...

=====> Finish building target 'git'.
git 1.8.4.1 is installed.
$ git --version
git version 1.8.4.1

Since git 1.8.4 was not the latest version, 1.8.4.1 of the latest version was installed.

How to write configuration file by DSL

header code

A configuration file certainly begins from the following code.

#!/usr/bin/perl

use 5.012;
use warnings;

use lib "$ENV{HOME}/.enbld/extlib/lib/perl5/";

Since system perl is certainly used for Enbld, it sets the path to system perl to shebang.

Since Enbld is supporting only 5.12 or more perl, it sets 'use 5.012;'.And warnings pragama is used for safety.

Since the Enbld's modules are stored in '$HOME/.enbld/extlib/perl5/lib', it is added to a reference place by lib pragma.

enbld, build

'myenv' is an nvironment name. An environment name can be attached freely.

enbld 'myenv' => build {
    ....
};

target, define

'target' function defines target software' building condition.

target 'git => define {
    ....
};

version

'version' function takes arbitrary version numbers or 'latest' string.

target 'git' => define {
    version 'latest';
};

target 'git' => define {
    version '1.8.4';
};

development

A part of software (the present condition -- perl only) can specify 'development' as an argument. Specification of 'development' will install the latest version among development versions.

target 'perl' => define {
    version 'development'; # -> installs 5.19.4 at 10/10/2013.
};

target 'perl' => define {
    version 'latest';      # -> installs 5.18.1 at 10/10/2013.
};

make_test

Pecification of the value (getting it blocked except undef, 0, and null string) judged by the argument of make_test by perl to be truth will perform a test at the time of building.

 target 'perl' => define {
	 version   'latest';
	 make_test '1';
 };

arguments

An arguments function is used when specifying an additional arguments as 'configure'.

 target 'perl' => define {
     version   'latest';
	 arguments '-Dusethreads';
 };

modules

The specified module can be installed when software is equipped with the module controlling function.

However, it is support of only perl now.

 target 'perl' => define {
     version 'latest';

	 modules => {
         'App::cpanminus' => 0,
	 };
 };

annotation

'annotation' is the notes to the condition.

Although it is the same as writing a comment using the grammar of perl, even if it uses the freeze subcommand, it differs in that it is displayed perfectly.

 target 'perl' => define {
     version    'latest';
	 arguments  '-Dusethreads';
     annotation 'use thread veriosn';
 };

Deploy

A configuration file can take '--deploy' argument.If '--deploy' argument is specified, deploys all software defined by configuration file to specific path.

$ ./sample/git_install.plx --deploy /path/to/install

Make test

A configuration file can take '--make_test' argument. If '--make_test' argument is specified, make test all software at installation.

$ ./sample/git_install.plx --make_test

Enbld's work-flow

$ ./myenv_install.plx             # install software
$ enblder list                      # check installed
$ enblder outdated                  # check outdated
$ enblder upgrade target_software   # upgrade separately
$ enblder deploy /path/to/install   # When fully testing, it is deploy.
