Hi all,
I've got a working prototype for the svr4convert tool I'd been thinking
about.
At the moment, it crudely stitches together 'pkgsend generate' and
'pkgmogrify' functionality, and runs a default set of transforms.
It also looks for, and warns about scripting operations present in the
SVR4 package.
t...@linn[1181] svr4convert --help
Usage:
svr4convert [-n] [-v <version>] <package>
Without -n, it writes a manifest and saves action data to
"<package>.dir". Like merge.py output, this manifest and directory can
then be passed to pkgsend.
There's a webrev (~500 lines of code) at:
http://cr.opensolaris.org/~timf/svr4-convert-prototype/
I've included some usage examples below.
At this stage, I'm interested in hearing whether we should continue to
pursue this venture, no need for a codereview just yet.
I do think this has the potential to lower the barrier for new users of
pkg(5) though am conscious of the fact that as soon as the tool reports
an error, the user will have to invest in learning the rest of the
pkg(5) publishing toolchain regardless.
Perhaps folding some of the warnings about SVR4 scripting would be
possible to do in pkgsend import/generate/publish' even if we don't
decide to go with this tool itself?
If there's a general consensus that svr4convert would be useful, I'll
work more on:
* generally polishing up the code & writing tests
* doing the right thing for pkg.variant.zone
* investigate including pkgdepend functionality
(I'd like to ignore svr4 depend files please!)
* look for more class action scripts we could deal with
* heuristics, eg. hinting at user actions in warnings when
useradd(1M) is grepped for in a script
cheers,
tim
