OSBuild

Build-Pipelines for Operating System Artifacts

OSBuild is a pipeline-based build system for operating system artifacts. It defines a universal pipeline description and a build system to execute them, producing artifacts like operating system images, working towards an image build pipeline that is more comprehensible, reproducible, and extendable.

See the osbuild(1) man-page for details on how to run osbuild, the definition of the pipeline description, and more.

Project

Principles

  1. OSBuild stages are never broken, only deprecated. The same manifest should always produce the same output.
  2. OSBuild stages should be explicit whenever possible instead of e.g. relying on the state of the tree.
  3. Pipelines are independent, so the tree is expected to be empty at the beginning of each.
  4. Manifests are expected to be machine-generated, so OSBuild has no convenience functions to support manually created manifests.
  5. The build environment is confined against accidental misuse, but this should not be considered a security boundary.
  6. OSBuild may only use Python language features supported by the oldest target distribution.

Requirements

The requirements for this project are:

  • bubblewrap >= 0.4.0
  • python >= 3.6

Additionally, the built-in stages require:

  • bash >= 5.0
  • coreutils >= 8.31
  • curl >= 7.68
  • qemu-img >= 4.2.0
  • rpm >= 4.15
  • tar >= 1.32
  • util-linux >= 235
  • skopeo

At build-time, the following software is required:

  • python-docutils >= 0.13
  • pkg-config >= 0.29

Testing requires additional software:

  • pytest

Build

Osbuild is a python script so it is not compiled. To verify changes made to the code use included makefile rules:

  • make lint to run linter on top of the code
  • make test-all to run base set of tests
  • sudo make test-run to run extended set of tests (takes long time)

Installation

Installing osbuild requires to not only install the osbuild module, but also additional artifacts such as tools (i.e: osbuild-mpp) sources, stages, schemas and SELinux policies.

For this reason, doing an installation from source is not trivial and the easier way to install it is to create the set of RPMs that contain all these components.

This can be done with the rpm make target, i.e:

make rpm

A set of RPMs will be created in the ./rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/ directory and can be installed in the system using the distribution package manager, i.e:

sudo dnf install ./rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/*.rpm
