CheckSource Plugin Documentation

Table of Contents

Introduction

This plugin checks for usual mistakes and problems in the source packages submitted by users. The core of the analysis is done by the source-checker Perl script. This script checks, for example, if there is a changelog file, if there is a proper license in the SPEC file or if the patch is referenced in the changelog.

Installation

Clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/openSUSE/openSUSE-release-tools.git

Link the plugin and the library in ~/.osc-plugins or /var/lib/osc-plugins.

cd openSUSE-release-tools
ln -sr ./osc-check_source.py ./osclib ~/.osc-plugins

The program will also search some external scripts (like check_source.pl) inside the cloned directory (following the symlink).

Command line

This program is expected to be executed unattended, usually in a loop or in a cron job.

Checks done

  • Check if there are more than one action in the request.

  • Check if the request comes from a valid devel project.

  • Check if the package has a proper name.

  • Check if the service is running in mode=localonly

  • Check if the *.changes file is present.

  • Check if there is a SPEC file with the same name as the source container.

  • No Vendor line is allowed.

  • The changelog is updated.

  • There is a proper license in the SPEC file.

  • The added / deleted patch is documented in the changelog.

  • rpmlint report is good.
