Install: Debian/Ubuntu (.deb)¶

podCI includes Debian packaging under packaging/debian/.

Prerequisites¶

• podman (runtime)
• a standard Debian packaging toolchain (e.g. devscripts, debhelper)
• Rust toolchain (cargo, rustc) available to the build

Build¶

From a tag checkout or source tarball:

# from repo root
cp -a packaging/debian ./debian

dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc

Outputs are written in the parent directory (../).

The Debian rules:

• build with --locked
• generate a man page and completions via cargo run -p podci --bin podci-assets --features gen-assets -- gen
• install init templates to /usr/share/podci/templates

Install¶

sudo dpkg -i ../podci_*.deb

If dependencies are missing:

sudo apt-get -f install

Templates¶

Templates are part of the base product. Verify:

podci templates list

Override search path if needed:

• --templates-dir <PATH>
• PODCI_TEMPLATES_DIR=<PATH>
