Setup
-----

To sign packages you'll need a key pair. To generate a pair of keys for this
purpose run:

.. code:: sh

# builds an image and starts a container
make build
# generate keys
~/bin/setup.sh

Building a Package
------------------

Run ``make build`` to start the docker environment. In the build environment
cd to the package directory which contains an ``APKBUILD`` file and run

.. code:: sh

cd /work//

The built packages will be in ``./target`` on the host.

Indexing and Signing
--------------------

.. code:: sh

cd /target///
apk index -o APKINDEX.tar.gz *.apk
abuild-sign APKINDEX.tar.gz

Testing the Package
-------------------

.. code:: sh

make test
apk add @custom
