This was deprecated in favor of always having the source in the manifest. Remove the command line option and the corresponding code that would override the sources definitions. Update the docs accordingly.

SYNOPSIS
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
| ``osbuild`` [ OPTIONS ] PIPELINE
|
|
| ``osbuild`` [ OPTIONS ] -
|
|
| ``osbuild`` ``--help``
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
**osbuild** is a build-system for operating system artifacts. It takes a
|
|
pipeline description as input and produces file-system trees, images, or other
|
|
artifacts as output. Its pipeline description gives comprehensive control over
|
|
the individual steps to execute as part of a pipeline. **osbuild** provides
|
|
isolation from the host system as well as caching capabilities, and thus
|
|
ensures that pipeline builds will be deterministic and efficient.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
**osbuild** reads the pipeline description from the file passed on the
|
|
command-line. To make **osbuild** read the pipeline description from standard
|
|
input, pass ``-``.
|
|
|
|
The following command-line options are supported. If an option is passed, which
|
|
is not listed here, **osbuild** will deny startup and exit with an error.
|
|
|
|
-h, --help print usage information and exit immediately
|
|
--store=DIR directory where intermediary file system trees
|
|
are stored
|
|
--secrets=PATH json file containing a dictionary of secrets
|
|
that are passed to sources
|
|
-l DIR, --libdir=DIR directory containing stages, assemblers, and
|
|
the osbuild library
|
|
--checkpoint=CHECKPOINT stage to commit to the object store during
|
|
build (can be passed multiple times)
|
|
--json output results in JSON format
|
|
--output-directory=DIR directory where result objects are stored
|
|
|
|
MANIFEST
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
The input to **osbuild** is a description of the pipeline to execute, as well
|
|
as required parameters to each pipeline stage. This data must be *JSON*
|
|
encoded. It is read from the file specified on the command-line, or, if ``-``
|
|
is passed, from standard input.
|
|
|
|
The format of the manifest is described in ``osbuild-manifest``\(5). The formal
|
|
schema of the manifest is available online as the OSBuild JSON Schema [#]_.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
The following sub-sections contain examples on running **osbuild**. Generally,
|
|
**osbuild** must be run with superuser privileges, since this is required to
|
|
create file-system images.
|
|
|
|
Example 1: Run an empty pipeline
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
To verify your **osbuild** setup, you can run it on an empty pipeline which
|
|
produces no output:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| # echo {} | osbuild -
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example 1: Build a Fedora 30 qcow2 image
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
To build a basic qcow2 image of Fedora 30, use:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| # osbuild ./samples/base-qcow2.json
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The pipeline definition ``./samples/base-rpm-qcow2.json`` is provided in the
|
|
upstream source repository of **osbuild**.
|
|
|
|
Example 2: Run from a local checkout
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
To run **osbuild** from a local checkout, use:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| # python3 -m osbuild --libdir . samples/base-rpm-qcow2.json
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will make sure to execute the **osbuild** module from the current
|
|
directory, as well as use it to search for stages, assemblers, and more.
