HTTPie on Gentoo

Welcome to the documentation about packaging HTTPie for Gentoo.

  • If you do not know HTTPie, have a look here.
  • If you are looking for HTTPie installation or upgrade instructions on Gentoo, then you can find them on that page.
  • If you are looking for technical information about the HTTPie packaging on Gentoo, then you are in a good place.

About

This document contains technical details, where we describe how to create a patch for the latest HTTPie version for Gentoo. We will discuss setting up the environment, installing development tools, installing and testing changes before submitting a patch downstream.

Overall process

Open a pull request to create httpie-XXX.ebuild and update Manifest.

  • Here is how to calculate the size and checksum (replace 2.5.0 with the correct version):

    # Download
    $ wget https://github.com/httpie/httpie/archive/2.5.0.tar.gz
    
    # Size
    $ stat --printf="%s\n" 2.5.0.tar.gz
    1105177
    
    # Checksum
    $ openssl dgst -blake2b512 2.5.0.tar.gz
    BLAKE2b512(2.5.0.tar.gz)= 6e16868c81522d4e6d2fc0a4e093c190f18ced720b35217930865ae3f8e168193cc33dfecc13c5d310f52647d6e79d17b247f56e56e8586d633a2d9502be66a7
    
  • The commit message must be net-misc/httpie: version bump to XXX.

  • The commit must be signed-off (git commit -s).
