* Add 'generate-appups' commandjoewilliams2011-02-151-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To further support OTP releases I have added support for generating application appup files. These include instructions that systools uses to generate a relup file which contains the low level instructions needed to perform a hot code upgrade. My goal with this module is to produce "good enough" appup files or at least a skeleton to help one get started with something more complex. If an appup file already exists for an application this command will not attempt to create a new one. Usage: $ rebar generate-appups previous_release=/path/to/old/version Generally this command will be run just before 'generate-upgrade'.
* Add 'generate-upgrade' commandjoewilliams2011-01-275-0/+97
To support OTP release upgrades I have added support for building upgrade packages. Support for this is included in the rebar_upgrade module, specifically generate_upgrade/2. It requires one variable to be set on the command line 'previous_release' which is the absolute path or relative path from 'rel/' to the previous release one is upgrading from. Running an upgrade will create the needed files, including a relup and result in a tarball containing the upgrade being written to 'rel/'. When done it cleans up the temporary files systools created. Usage: $ rebar generate-upgrade previous_release=/path/to/old/version This also includes a dummy application that can be used to test upgrades as well as an example. Special thanks to Daniel Reverri, Jesper Louis Andersen and Richard Jones for comments and patches.
