jenkins-debian-glue
As Devuan is a GNU/Linux distribution, we are usually expected to build native .deb packages of varios software and kernels. Using jenins-debian-glue, dak, and amprolla, it is easy to produce Devuan packages and repositories that are fully customizable for any need.
jenkins-debian-glue is an open-source pluggable module for Jenkins that provides Q/A test integration, policy verification, and controlled build environments for building deb packages. It holds the logic of pbuilder and reproducible package builds. This allows us to seamlessly build deb packages that are maintained and version-controlled in Git. Providing the entire development history and quality assurance through code reviews and similar.
Deployment
On any Devuan-based system, once Jenkins is installed, we can
install an additional (meta)package prepared for easy deployment of
jenkins-debian-glue called jenkins-debian-glue-buildenv-devuan.
Installing it, along with default-jre-headless, would add support to
our build nodes to build deb packages using version control systems
like Subversion and Git. To install, we would simply issue:
# apt install jenkins-debian-glue-buildenv-devuan default-jre-headless
Once installed, we would be able to add and configure the node in our Jenkins master.
