WARNING: Before starting go through the links on the reference page.

NOTE: This guide is for building the version 1.10.3 of Nginx. You might need to change the commands according to the latest stable version of Nginx.

1. Start the container.

mkdir ~/nginx-build cd ~/nginx-build docker run --name=nginx-build -dit -v $PWD:/root/data rtcamp/nginx-build bash

2. Copy the GPG keys(both public and private) to ~/nginx-build and if you don't have one, you can check here, how to create one.

3. Enter the container.

docker exec -it nginx-build bash

4. Import the your GPG keys.

cd /root/data/ gpg --import public.key gpg --import --allow-secret-key-import private.key

5. Clone the repo.

git clone https://github.com/EasyEngine/nginx-build cd nginx-build

6. Set your name as the Package Maintainer.

export DEBFULLNAME="rtCamp"

7. Run the script with the latest stable release and your email id.

bash ppa.sh nginx 1.10.3 easyengine@example.com

8. At the end of the script’s run, you will find the CHANGELOG open in vim.

   nginx (1.10.3-2ppa~stable) stable; urgency=high * Update version to 1.10.3 -- rtCamp <easyengine@example.com> Sat, 04 Feb 2017 03:05:53 +0530 

   This revision number of the build in bold has to be changed to build it successfully.
   (1.10.3-2ppa~stable)
   This will download the latest Nginx source, the modules from their respective Github links, modify the changelog and create the whole directory structure at ~/PPA/nginx

9. Go to the nginx directory (check the latest version)

cd ~/PPA/nginx/nginx-1.10.3

10. Start the packaging with the GPG keys that you have exported. If in doubt about GPGKEY, you can check this page.

debuild -S -sa -k88649AAD

This is the key ID for rtCamp's GPG key. You will be asked for a password. Get the password for the GPG key.

11. Checkout the repository. If you don't have a repository, go to Opensuse Build Service, and create one

cd ~ osc co home:rtCamp:EasyEngine

Warning: The repository name is case sensitive.

12. Remove the current files from the nginx repo.

cd home:rtCamp:EasyEngine/nginx osc rm *

13. The files that need to be uploaded will be generated in the ~/PPA/nginx directory. Only the files you already see here will be necessary.
    Copy the files from ~/PPA/nginx to ~/home:rtCamp:EasyEngine.

rsync -avzP --exclude="modules" --exclude="nginx-1.10.3" ~/PPA/nginx ~/home:rtCamp:EasyEngine/nginx/

14. Add the new files to the repo.

osc add *

15. Commit and push the changes.

osc ci -m “Revision message describing any changes”

17. Pat yourself on the back for a job well done. :)
