This gem provides a class to parse, manipulate and store SOPM files and create OPM strings from them.

Current build state:

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'otrs-sopm'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install otrs-sopm

First create an instance via passing the location to the .sopm file.

require 'otrs/sopm'

sopm = OTRS::SOPM.new 'path/to/Znuny4OTRS-Package.sopm'

A new version can be created via passing the wanted version number and a changelog:

sopm_hash_structure = sopm.version('1.0.1', 'Created first bug fix.')

A version can be deleted via passing the wanted version number or nothing for deleting the latest. If the current version gets deleted, the version number gets replaced by the previous one if one exisits:

sopm_hash_structure = sopm.version_delete('1.0.1')

# or for the latest

sopm_hash_structure = sopm.version_delete()

It's recommended to add the build host and build date to the OPM file. Give the build host as a parameter with to add the build information via:

sopm_hash_structure = sopm.add_build_information('http:https://build.host.tld')

To add additional files to the "FileList" structure of the (S)OPM file call this method with the path and an optional permission integer (default is 644):

sopm_hash_structure = sopm.add_file('path/to/File.pm')

# equals

sopm_hash_structure = sopm.add_file('path/to/File.pm', 660)

In case you want to store the changes you have made to the original SOPM file call this method:

sopm_hash_structure = sopm.store

In limited cases it might necessary to re-parse the SOPM file again. Do this with:

sopm_hash_structure = sopm.parse

After all changes are made you might want to create a OPM file. To receive the OPM XML string with Base64 encoded files call this method:

opm_xml_string = sopm.opm

Feel free to implement one of those or any other:

• Accept filehandle as constructor parameter.
• Accept SOPM content string as constructor parameter.
• Write OPM file instead of only returning the string.
• Manipulate all the other attributes.
• Create SOPM file from a Hash structure.

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
