<title>Building Packages with
<application>Poudriere</application></title>
<para><application>Poudriere</application> uses &os; jails to set
up isolated compilation environments. Inside, ports are
compiled and packaged using standard &man.make.1; targets and
&man.pkg.8;.</para>
<sect2 xml:id="poudriere-installation-and-configuration">
<title>Installation and Configuration</title>
<para>Install <application>Poudriere</application> from the
Ports Collection
(<package role="port">ports-mgmt/poudriere</package>).</para>
<para>Configuration files are
<filename>/usr/local/etc/poudriere.conf</filename> and
<filename>/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/</filename>. Example
settings are shown in
<filename>/usr/local/etc/poudriere.conf.sample</filename>.</para>
<para>Using <acronym>ZFS</acronym> is not required,
but beneficial. When <acronym>ZFS</acronym> is used, the
<varname>ZPOOL</varname> for
<application>Poudriere</application>'s datasets must be
specified. Set <varname>FREEBSD_HOST</varname> to a nearby
mirror. Defaults for the other values are adequate. Defining
<varname>CCACHE_DIR</varname> enables the use of
<package role="port">devel/ccache</package> to cache
compilation. This will reduce build times for
frequently-compiled code. It is convenient to put
<application>Poudriere</application> datasets in an isolated
tree mounted at
<filename class="directory">/poudriere</filename>. That is
not a functional modification, but a matter of taste.</para>
<para>The number of processor cores detected is used to define
how many builds should run in parallel. Supply enough virtual
memory, either with <acronym>RAM</acronym> or swap space. If
virtual memory runs out, compiling jails will stop and be torn
down, resulting in weird error messages.</para>

<title>Initialize Jails and Port Trees</title>
<para>Initially, it is sufficient to install a &os; tree and a
ports tree. Creating a simple setup only requires supplying a
name with <option>-j</option> and a version with
<option>-v</option>. On systems running &os;/&arch.amd64;,
the architecture can be set with <option>-a</option> to
either <literal>i386</literal> or <literal>amd64</literal>.
The default is the architecture shown by
<command>uname</command>.</para>

<para>On a single computer, <application>Poudriere</application>
can build ports with multiple configurations, in multiple
jails, and from different port trees. Custom configurations
for these combinations are called <emphasis>sets</emphasis>.
See the CUSTOMIZATION section of &man.poudriere.8; for
detail.</para>
<para>The basic configuration shown here puts a single jail-,
port-, and set-specific <filename>make.conf</filename> in
<filename
class="directory">/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d</filename>.
The filename in this example is created by combining the jail
name, port name, and set name:
<filename><replaceable>10amd64-local-workstation</replaceable>-make.conf</filename>.
The system <filename>make.conf</filename> and this new file
are combined at build time to create the
<filename>make.conf</filename> used by the build jail.</para>
<para>Packages to be built are entered in
<filename><replaceable>10amd64-local-workstation</replaceable>-pkglist</filename>:</para>
<programlisting>editors/emacs
devel/git
ports-mgmt/pkg
...</programlisting>
<para>Options and dependencies for the specified ports are
configured:</para>
<screen>&prompt.root; <userinput>poudriere options -j <replaceable>10amd64</replaceable> -p <replaceable>local</replaceable> -z <replaceable>workstation</replaceable> -f <replaceable>workstation-pkglist</replaceable></userinput></screen>
<para>Finally, packages are built and a &man.pkg.8; repository
is created:</para>
<screen>&prompt.root; <userinput>poudriere bulk -j <replaceable>10amd64</replaceable> -p <replaceable>local</replaceable> -z <replaceable>workstation</replaceable> -f <replaceable>workstation-pkglist</replaceable></userinput></screen>
<para><keycombo
action="simul"><keycap>Ctrl</keycap><keycap>t</keycap></keycombo>
displays the current state.
<application>Poudriere</application> also builds files in
<filename>/poudriere/logs/bulk/<replaceable>jailname</replaceable></filename>
that can be used with a web server to display build
information.</para>
<para>Packages are now available for installation from the
<application>Poudriere</application> repository.</para>
