Custom scripts with piuparts
------------------------------
You can specify several custom scripts to be run inside piuparts.
You have to store them in a directory and give it as argument to
piuparts: --scriptsdir=/dir/with/the/scripts
The scripts can be run:
Before *installing* your package. The name of the script must
start with:
pre_install_
After *installing* your package and its deps. In the case of the
upgrade test, it is after install and upgrade. The name of the
script must start with:
post_install_
After *removing* your package, The name of the script must start with:
post_remove_
After *purging* your package, The name of the script must start with:
post_purge_
Before *upgrading* your package, once the current version in the archive
has been installed (this is done in the second test, "Installation,
upgrade and purging test"). The name of the script must start with:
pre_upgrade_
You can run several scripts in every step, they are run in alphabetical
order.
The scripts are run *inside* the piuparts chroot and only can be shell
scripts, if you want to run Python or Perl scripts, you have to install
Python or Perl. The chroot where piuparts is run is minized and does not
include Perl.
It would be interesting to declare some piuparts variables like the name
of the current testing packages, and be able to use this variable in the
custom scripts. But this option is not available yet.
Example script:
$cat post_install_number.sh
-----------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
number=`dpkg -l | wc -l`
echo "There are $number packages installed."
exit 0
-----------------------------------------------
