Packaging

Change to the project directory (cd aldm) and run any of the below scripts:

• sh packaging/setup.sh <MODE>: Builds and installs a package

• sh packaging/build-package.sh <MODE>: Just builds a package without installing it locally

• sh packaging/install-package.sh <MODE>: Just installs a package locally, except if no built package is detected, a package is built.

• where <MODE> can be one of the below

  1. local: Selects aldm-local from the local project that you have cloned already.
  2. git: Selects aldm-git from the latest git commit.
  3. stable: Selects aldm from the git tag corresponding to the pkgver specified in the PKGBUILD. If pkgver=0.0.1, then the git tag v0.0.1 is used for packaging.

Note: Any additional parameters passed to the above scripts are automatically sent to makepkg or pacman (whichever is applicable).
