Downstream packaging
********************
This page is intended to support operating system packagers of ``cloud-init``
and is not intended for other audiences to generate their own custom cloud-init
packages.
``Cloud-init`` is not published to PyPI as it is not intended to be consumed
as a pure-python package or run from virtual environments or python paths that
are not system-wide.
Guidelines
==========
Build Dependencies
------------------
The following build dependencies must be available on the system:
- ``python3``
- ``meson >= 0.63.0``
- ``pkgconf``
- ``bash-completion``
Additional dependencies for systemd environments:
- ``systemd-devel``
- ``udev``
The full list of all package build dependencies for a given distribution can
be obtained by the following command:
.. code-block:: bash
./tools/read-dependencies --requirements-file requirements.txt --requirements-file test-requirements.txt --system-pkg-names --system-pkg-names --distro=<your_distro_name>
Manual build procedure
----------------------
Meson install directory locations may be set with
``meson setup -D<option_name>=<option_value>``.
Steps to validate ``cloud-init`` package builds in a development environment:
.. code-block:: bash
meson setup builddir
meson test -C builddir -v
meson install -C builddir --destdir=testinstall
# List installed files
find builddir/testinstall/
See :ref:`package_testing` for more information package testing.
