gulp-smart-debian v0.1.0

$ yarn add gulp-smart-debian -D

Usage

Define package in-line:

'use strict'

const gulp = require('gulp')
const deb = require('gulp-smart-debian')

function createDebTask() {
    return gulp.src(['demo.sh','blob.bin'])
      .pipe(deb({
        package: 'demo',
        version: '0.1-2',
        section: 'base',
        priority: 'optional',
        architecture: 'i386',
        maintainer: 'Mr. Apt <apt@nowhere.tld>',
        description: 'A dummy package',
        preinst: [ 'echo "hello from dummy package"' ],
        postinst: [ 'cat -n /opt/demo/.npmignore' ],
        changelog: [
          {
            version: '0.1-2',
            distribution: 'unstable',
            urgency: 'low',
            date: new Date('2016-12-24T12:40:10'),
            changes: [
              'Added another feature.',
              'Fixed feature X.'
            ]
          },
          {
            version: '0.1-1',
            distribution: 'unstable',
            urgency: 'low',
            date: '2016-12-23T11:24:00',
            changes: [
              'First release.'
            ]
          }
        ],
        _target: 'opt/demo',
        _out: 'dist',
        _verbose: true
      }));
}

gulp.task('default', gulp.parallel(createDebTask));

Alternatively, you can define your package in an external JSON file:

function task() {
    return gulp.src(['demo.sh', 'blob.bin'])
      .pipe(deb('demo_0.1-2_i386.json'));
}

You can also use a YAML file to define your package. Just convert it to an Object first using the js-yaml module (npm install --save js-yaml):

const YAML = require('js-yaml')
const fs = require('fs')

function task() {
     return gulp.src(['demo.sh', 'blob.bin'])
      .pipe(deb(YAML.load(fs.readFileSync('demo_0.1-2_i386.yml').toString())));
}
