	~~= About =~~		[[User:Ncopa/Install Handbook]]
	~~Alpine Linux is an x86 Linux distribution suitable for firewalls, routers, VPN gateways, lightweight servers (http, sql, mail), resque livecd or other embedded devices.~~

	~~== Lightweight ==~~
	~~Alpine is based on and~~ [~~http://busybox.org busybox] (and are thus not a GNU/Linux distro).~~

	~~The base system, excluding the kernel, is less than 2MB. That includes:~~
	* the C library runtime, [http://uclibc.org uclibc]
	* standard tools from [http://busybox.net busybox] (cp, ls, mv, wget, iproute, nc etc)
	* package manager, apk-tools
	* openrc init system

	~~== Proactive security ==~~
	~~The default kernel is patched with the grsecurity patches and provides features like:~~
	* Address Space Randomization Layout
	* Memeory protection

	Alpine Linux is a run-from RAM linux distribution. Its original target was small appliances like routers, VPN gateways, or embedded x86 devices. However, it supports hosting other Linux guest OSes under [http://linux-vserver.org/ VServer] control, making it an attractive hosting solution as well.

	~~It can boot from a 1GB USB stick, CDrom, or hard drive. Packages compiled against~~ [~~http~~://www.uclibc.org/ uClibc] are pulled into RAM for execution. All packages are compiled with [http://www.grsecurity.net/ grsecurity patches] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack-smashing_protection SSP] to provide a secure runtime environment.
	~~The lbu backup system stores all changes to /etc (and custom changes) to the boot media, making system disaster recovery brain-dead simple.~~

	~~= APKBUILD Reference =~~
	~~APKBUILDs are scripts to build alpine packages using the [[abuild~~]] ~~tool.~~

	~~== Variables ==~~
	~~The following variables are defined by abuild:~~
	~~; startdir~~
	~~: The directory where APKBUILD script is found.~~
	~~; srcdir~~
	~~: The directory here sources are downloaded to and unpacked.~~
	~~; pkgdir~~
	~~: This directory should hold the data files for main package. A normal autotools package has a ''make DESTDIR="$pkgdir" install''.~~
	~~; subpkgdir~~
	~~: This directory should have the data files for a subpackage. This variable should only be used from subpackage functions.~~
	{{Note\|All variables that holds a path (i.e ''$srcdir'' and ''$pkgdir'') should always be within quotes in the APKBUILD (for example: ''"$srcdir"''). This is so things don't break in case user has the APKBUILD in a directory with spaces.}}

	~~The following variables should be defined by user in APKBUILD:~~
	~~; depends~~
	~~: Runtime dependencies that are not shared-object dependencies. Shared objects dependencies are autodetected and should not be specified here.~~
	~~; depends_dev~~
	~~: Runtime dependencies for -dev subpackage.~~
	~~; install~~
	~~: pre/post install/deinstall/remove scripts.~~
	~~; license~~
	~~: License(s) for the package.~~
	~~; makedepends~~
	~~: Build time dependencies.~~
	~~; options~~
	~~: build time options for package. Valid values are currently only ''!strip'' for avoid stripping the binaries.~~
	~~; pkgdesc~~
	~~: Short package description.~~
	~~; pkggroups~~
	~~: Groups to be created during buildtime. This group should be created in a ''$pkgname.pre-install'' script as well so group is created during runtime.~~
	~~; pkgname~~
	: The name of the package. All letters should be lowercase. Lua libraries/modules should be prefixed with ''lua-'' (for example ''lua-posix''), perl modules with ''perl-'' (for example ''perl-xml-''parser), php modules with ''php-'' and python modules with ''py--''.
	~~; pkgusers~~
	~~: Users to be created during buildtime. Use ''$pkgname.pre-install'' for creating the user(s) during runtime.~~
	~~; pkgver~~
	~~: The package version.~~
	~~; replaces~~
	~~: package(s) that this package replaces. Useful when files moves from one package to another.~~
	~~; source~~
	~~: URL(s) to sources and patches.~~
	~~; subpackages~~
	~~: Subpackages built from this APKBUILD.~~
	~~; url~~
	~~: The homepage for the package. This is to help users find upstream developer, documentation etc.~~

	~~== Functions ==~~
	~~The following functions should be specified in the APKBUILD. The functions should consider current work directory as undefined.~~

	~~; prepare()~~
	~~: ''Optional''. Build preparation. Here should patches etc be applied. This is function is for convenience while working with the APKBUILD.~~
	~~; build()~~
	: ''Required''. This is the compilation stage. This function will be called as normal user (unless the package() function is missing - for compatibility reasons). If no compilation is needed this function can contain a single ''return 0''.
	~~; package()~~
	~~: ''Required''. In this function the built application and files should be installed in "$pkgdir".~~

	~~{{Note\| Building in fakeroot will reduce performance for parallell builds dramatically. That is why we do the ''build()'' and ''package()'' separation.}}~~

	~~The following functions are provided by abuild and is overrideable:~~
	~~; fetch()~~
	~~: download remote sources listed in $source to ''$SRCDEST'' and create symlinks to ''$srcdir''.~~
	~~; unpack()~~
	~~: unpacks .tar.gz .tar.bz2 .tgz and .zip archices in ''$srcdir''.~~
	~~; dev()~~
	~~: Subpackage function for -dev packages. By default this will only call ''default_dev'' which will move ''$pkgdir/usr/include'', ''.a'', ''.la'' and similar files to ''$subpkgdir''.~~
	~~; doc()~~
	~~: Subpackage function for -doc packages. By default this will only call ''default_doc'' which will move ''$pkgdir/usr/share/doc'', ''$pkgdir/usr/share/man'' and similar to ''$subpkgdir''.~~
