Azure Linux Dev Tools is a collection of utilities useful for development of the Azure Linux distro.

azldev

azldev is a developer tool for working on theAzure Linux distro.

It supports:

• Parsing, resolving, and querying TOML-based metadata defining the Azure Linux distro.
• Preparing the sources for a source component for building with mock, koji, or similar standard build tool/service.
• Fetching source archives from lookaside caches.
• Developer convenience utilities for locally building individual packages and images.

Quick start

1. Install golang and other prerequisites via your system's package manager, e.g.:
   dnf install -y golang mock dnf-utils mock-rpmautospec kiwi
   Note: mock-rpmautospec plugin hooks rpmautospec into mock's build lifecycle. It pulls rpmautospec as a dependency which processes %autorelease and %autochangelog macros in spec files.
2. Install azldev:
   go install github.com/microsoft/azure-linux-dev-tools/cmd/azldev@main
3. To ensure you can build using mock you must be a member of the mock group, e.g.:
   Note that this may require re-login or newgrp to ensure your environment registers the group update.

Completion

You can install completion extensions for azldev with your shell by running:

eval "$(azldev completion bash)"

Similar support exists for fish and zsh.
