This commit adds license metadata to rpm and deb packages. Additionally,
it makes the copyright file for deb files follow the machine readable
specification, and sets the correct license text based on the oss vs
default deb packages.
This commit adds the distribution flavor (default versus oss) to the
build process which is passed through the startup scripts to
Elasticsearch. This change will be used to customize the message on
attempting to install/remove x-pack based on the distribution flavor.
This commit makes x-pack a module and adds it to the default
distrubtion. It also creates distributions for zip, tar, deb and rpm
which contain only oss code.
When upgrading via the RPM package, we can run into a problem where
the keystore fails to be created. This arises because the %post script
on RPM runs after the new package files are installed but before the
removal of the old package files. This means that the contents of the
lib folder can contain files from the old package and the new package
and thus running the create keystore tool can encounter JAR hell
issues and fail. To solve this, we move creating the keystore to the
%posttrans script which runs after the old package files are
removed. We only need to do this on the RPM package, so we add a
switch in the shared post-install script.
We no longer source the environment file in the packaging scripts yet we
had leftover references to variables defined by those environment
files. This commit cleans these up.
Previously we allowed a lot of customization of Elasticsearch during
package installation (e.g., the username and group). This customization
was achieved by sourcing the env script (e.g.,
/etc/sysconfig/elasticsearch) during installation. Since we no longer
allow such flexibility, we do not need to source these env scripts
during package installation and removal.
This commit removes the ability to specify that a plugin requires the
keystore and instead creates the keystore on package installation or
when Elasticsearch is started for the first time. The reason that we opt
to create the keystore on package installation is to ensure that the
keystore has the correct permissions (the package installation scripts
run as root as opposed to Elasticsearch running as the elasticsearch
user) and to enable removing the keystore on package removal if the
keystore is not modified.
This commit moves the distribution specific tasks into the respective
archives and packages builds. The collocation of common and distribution
specific tasks make it much easier to reason about what is expected in a
particular distribution.
This commit adds intermediate gradle projects for archive based
distributions (zip, tar) and package based distributions (rpm, deb). The
grouping allows the common distribution build file to be considerably
shorter and clearly separated from the common zip/tar and rpm/deb
configuration.
