Configuration¶

# Name. (required)
name: foo

# Architecture. (required)
# This will expand any env var you set in the field, e.g. arch: ${GOARCH}
# The architecture is specified using Go nomenclature (GOARCH) and translated
# to the platform specific equivalent. In order to manually set the architecture
# to a platform specific value, use deb_arch, rpm_arch and apk_arch.
# Examples: `all`, `amd64`, `386`, `arm5`, `arm6`, `arm7`, `arm64`, `mips`,
# `mipsle`, `mips64le`, `ppc64le`, `s390`
arch: amd64

# Platform.
# This will expand any env var you set in the field, e.g. platform: ${GOOS}
# This is only used by the rpm and deb packagers.
# Examples: `linux` (default), `darwin`
platform: linux

# Version. (required)
# This will expand any env var you set in the field, e.g. version: ${SEMVER}
# Some package managers, like deb, require the version to start with a digit.
# Hence, you should not prefix the version with 'v'.
version: 1.2.3

# Version Schema allows you to specify how to parse the version string.
# Default is `semver`
#   `semver` attempt to parse the version string as a valid semver version.
#       The parser is lenient; it will strip a `v` prefix and will accept
#       versions with fewer than 3 components, like `v1.2`.
#       If parsing succeeds, then the version will be molded into a format
#       compatible with the specific packager used.
#       If parsing fails, then the version is used as-is.
#   `none` skip trying to parse the version string and just use what is passed in
version_schema: semver

# Version Epoch.
# A package with a higher version epoch will always be considered newer.
# See: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#epochs-should-be-used-sparingly
epoch: 2

# Version Prerelease.
# Default is extracted from `version` if it is semver compatible.
# This is appended to the `version`, e.g. `1.2.3+beta1`. If the `version` is
# semver compatible, then this replaces the prerelease component of the semver.
prerelease: beta1

# Version Metadata (previously deb.metadata).
# Default is extracted from `version` if it is semver compatible.
# Setting metadata might interfere with version comparisons depending on the
# packager. If the `version` is semver compatible, then this replaces the
# version metadata component of the semver.
version_metadata: git

# Version Release, aka revision.
# This will expand any env var you set in the field, e.g. release: ${VERSION_RELEASE}
# This is appended to the `version` after `prerelease`. This should be
# incremented if you release an updated package of the same upstream version,
# and it should reset to 1 when bumping the version.
release: 1

# Section.
# This is only used by the deb packager.
# See: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-archive.html#sections
section: default

# Priority.
# Defaults to `optional` on deb
# Defaults to empty on rpm and apk
# See: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-archive.html#priorities
priority: extra

# Maintainer. (required)
# This will expand any env var you set in the field, e.g. maintainer: ${GIT_COMMITTER_NAME} <${GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL}>
# Defaults to empty on rpm and apk
# Leaving the 'maintainer' field unset will not be allowed in a future version
maintainer: Carlos Alexandro Becker <root@carlosbecker.com>

# Description.
# This will expand any env var you set in the field, e.g. description: ${DESCRIPTION}
# Defaults to `no description given`.
# Most packagers call for a one-line synopsis of the package. Some (like deb)
# also call for a multi-line description starting on the second line.
description: Sample package

# Vendor.
# This will expand any env var you set in the field, e.g. vendor: ${VENDOR}
# This is only used by the rpm packager.
vendor: GoReleaser

# Package's homepage.
# This will expand any env var you set in the field, e.g. homepage: ${CI_PROJECT_URL}
homepage: https://nfpm.goreleaser.com

# License.
license: MIT

# Date to be used as mtime on internal files.
#
# Default is the value of $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH (which should be an Unix time),
# or the current time.
# Read more about SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH at https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/source-date-epoch/
mtime: "2009-11-10T23:00:00Z"

  # without taking ownership of the directories.
  - src: some/directory/
    dst: /etc

  # This will add all files in some/directory or in subdirectories at the
  # same level under the directory /etc. This means the tree structure in
  # some/directory will not be replicated.
  - src: some/directory/
    dst: /etc/ # notice the trailing slash

  # This will replicate the directory structure under some/directory at /etc.

  # Select files with a glob (doesn't work if you set disable_globbing: true).

  - src: path/to/local/*.1.gz
    dst: /usr/share/man/man1/

  # Simple symlink at /usr/bin/foo which points to /sbin/foo, which is
  # the same behaviour as `ln -s /sbin/foo /usr/bin/foo`.
  #
  # This also means that both "src" and "dst" are paths inside the package (or
  # rather paths in the file system where the package will be installed) and
  # not in the build environment. This is different from regular files where
  # "src" is a path in the build environment. However, this convention results

  # These files are not actually present in the package, but the file names
  # are added to the package header. From the RPM directives documentation:
  #
  # "There are times when a file should be owned by the package but not
  # installed - log files and state files are good examples of cases you might
  # desire this to happen."
  #
  # "The way to achieve this is to use the %ghost directive. By adding this
  # directive to the line containing a file, RPM will know about the ghosted
  # file, but will not add it to the package."

  # For non rpm packages ghost files are ignored at this time.

  # Sometimes it is important to be able to set the mtime, mode, owner, or group for a file

  # Using the type 'dir', empty directories can be created. When building RPMs, however, this
  # type has another important purpose: Claiming ownership of that folder. This is important
  # because when upgrading or removing an RPM package, only the directories for which it has

# Umask to be used on files without explicit mode set.

# By default, nFPM will inherit the mode of the original file that's being

# This may lead to issues if these files are checkout out in Git, for example,
# as it won't keep all the permissions on fresh checkouts, or if the local
# system has a problematic umask setting.
