HOW TO ADD CUSTOM SCRIPTS TO THE JHALFS MAKEFILE
Normally JHALFS creates a Makefile containing only those scripts found in
the {B,C,H}LFS books. An automated construction tool cannot predict the
needs of every individual and requests are made "Can you add xxxx package".
Rather than adding numerous package scripts and switches for each request it
was easier to add a tool for the user(s) to code their own package needs.
There is two areas that can be customized: how the base system is build
and what additional configurations and packages requires your hardware to can
boot and work with. Each one of this areas is handled in a diferent way.
BASE SYSTEM CUSTOMIZATION
There is two ways to alter how the base system will be built:
- Using a working copy of the book sources and editing the XML files.
This is the way used by book editors to test packages upgrades,
command changes, build order changes. etc.
This method requires you know very well the book sources and what
files need be edited. It will not be discussed here.
- Editing the generated build scripts to make any change you would.
This is the method discussed below.
(TO BE WRITTEN)
ADDING POST-SYSTEM BUILD CONFIGURATION FILES AND EXTRA PACKAGES
The installation of BLFS packages is handled via blfs-tool and activated
when you select the appropiate menu option. See README and README.BLFS for
more info.
The feature descrbed below was added so users could install remaining
configuration files, build the packages necessary to access the internet
or to support specific hardware, or to install basic utilities that need
have availables from the beginning, and was not intended to replace the BLFS
install system.
LAYOUT
A new directory has been added to JHALFS tree which will contain the
configuration scripts and a few examples. A switch has been added to the
configuration file which enables/disables the inclusion of personal scripts.
custom
/config <-- where to put your scripts.
/examples <-- a few example scripts
template <-- ALL scripts MUST look like this
NOTE::: You are responsible for including all dependencies and ensuring they
are built in the proper order.
1. To add a package to the final JHALFS Makefile you must first create a file
in the custom/config directory.
**All config files MUST follow the naming convention, xxx-PKG, where xxx
is the order number and PKG is the name of the package. The file naming
format is important as it defines the build order. The example shown
below has an order number 950 and log files will list in alphabetical
order in the /logs directory after blfs-tools scripts.
The simplest method is to copy the template file into the config directory
and rename it.
2. Populate the variables with the necessary values.
Variable function is self explanitory except for the inclusion of the
build cmds. If the package you want to include is found in the BLFS
book then you only need to copy/paste the cmd strings between the xEOFx
pairs, otherwise you will need to define the build cmds yourself.
NOTE::: This script you just created is not usable directly but contains
all the information necessary for jhalfs to create a build script
and an entry in the jhalfs Makefile.
3. As mentioned previously the build order is dictated by the 3 digit number
in the file name. If a package has dependencies it must be numerically
larger than the dependency files.
ie. The package mc has glib as a dependency and build order is
950-glib
951-mc
4. A config file for BLFS-bootscripts is already created as 999-blfs_bootscripts.
If a package requires a bootscript to be installed add the cmd to this
file and NOT in the package script. The gpm script is included as an
example of multiple patch files and the need for a blfs bootscript.
RUNNING:::
Although your scripts are added to the generated makefile they are not
automatically built. You must tell the makefile to build the tools with
the cmd
make mk_CUSTOM_TOOLS
