Packit CLI #
Installation #
There are various ways how to install packit CLI. Pick what suits you the best:
Fedora Linux #
$ sudo dnf install packit
Red Hat Enterprise Linux or CentOS Stream 8 #
On RHEL/CentOS 8 you can install RPM from EPEL repository. On CentOS, some dependencies are in PowerTools repository, so you have to enable it:
$ sudo dnf install dnf-plugins-core epel-release
$ sudo dnf config-manager --set-enabled powertools
$ sudo dnf install packit
Via Fedora COPR #
You can also help us test the latest development snapshot by installing packit built from the main branch in Copr:
$ sudo dnf copr enable packit/packit-dev
$ sudo dnf install packit
$ # OR in case you have packit already installed from the Fedora repositories:
$ sudo dnf upgrade packit
From PyPI #
We publish packit to PyPI and it’s available as packitos project — packit
at PyPI is something different.
$ pip install --user packitos
From Source #
… or installing it directly from GitHub:
$ pip install --user git+https://github.com/packit/packit
In a container #
If none of the above work for you, try running it in a container
from our Fedora based image. It contains packit installed from main branch,
i.e. the same you’d get by pip installing from Github.
$ podman run -ti --rm -v $PWD:/src:z quay.io/packit/packit bash
$ packit
Usage: packit [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...
Depending on the command you want to perform you need to mount secrets and configuration files, like in the following examples:
Copr build #
$ podman run -ti --rm -v ~/.config/copr:/root/.config/copr:z -v $PWD:/src:z quay.io/packit/packit bash
$ packit build in-copr
Koji build #
$ podman run -ti --rm -v ~/.ssh/:/root/.ssh:z -v $PWD:/src:z quay.io/packit/packit bash
$ fkinit -u <Fedora Account username>
$ packit build in-koji
