By now, Fedora developers have almost certainly heard of modularity. Some have even tried making their own modules. This talk will provide an overview and demo of a few tools Fedora has available to assist in creating and building modules. Some of the topics to be discussed include:
- when to use modules (versions and streams)
- discovering existing modules and their contents
- the fedmod utility
- local module builds (online and offline)
- scratch module builds
- how to use test module builds
Audience:
- Package developers who want to learn about tools that are available in Fedora to assist in creating and building modules. It will be assumed that attendees are already familiar with using existing Fedora RPM packaging tools.
