Khosrow Moossavi 1708838518 CLOUDSTACK-10268: Fix and enhance package script (#2433)
- new flag `-T, --use-timestamp` to use `timestamp` when POM version contains SNAPSHOT
  - in the final artifacts (jar) name
  - in the final package (rpm, deb) name
  - in `/etc/cloudstack-release` file of SystemVMs
  - in the Management Server > About dialog
- if there's a "branding" string in the POM version (e.g. `x.y.z.a-NAME[-SNAPSHOT]`),
the branding name will be used in the final generated pacakge name such as following:
  - `cloudstack-management-x.y.z.a-NAME.NUMBER.el7.centos.x86_64`
  - `cloudstack-management_x.y.z.a-NAME-NUMBER~xenial_all.deb`
- branding string can be overriden with newly added `-b, --brand` flag
- handle the new format version for VR version
- fix long opts (they were broken)
- tolerate and show a warning message for unrecognized flags
- usage help reformat

* Deprecate Version class in favor or CloudStackVersion

Introduction

This is used to build appliances for use with CloudStack. Currently two build profiles are available for building systemvmtemplate (Debian based) and CentOS based built-in user VM template.

Setting up Tools and Environment

  • Install packer and latest KVM, qemu on a Linux machine

  • Install tools for exporting appliances: qemu-img, ovftool, faketime

  • Build and install vhd-util as described in build.sh or use pre-built binaries at:

    http://packages.shapeblue.com/systemvmtemplate/vhd-util
    http://packages.shapeblue.com/systemvmtemplate/libvhd.so.1.0
    

How to build appliances

Just run build.sh, it will export archived appliances for KVM, XenServer, VMWare and HyperV in dist directory:

bash build.sh systemvmtemplate
bash build.sh builtin
