# Push/declare Dolibarr sources to Launchpad
#----------------------------------
- From Launchpad project (https://launchpad.net/dolibarr), register a series: 
    Call it 'trunk' or 'stable'
    Use branch (dev):
    https://launchpad.net/~eldy/dolibarr/develop
    https://launchpad.net/~eldy/dolibarr/stable
    or 
    Use URL pattern (stable):
    For stable: http:https://www.dolibarr.org/files/lastbuild/package_debian-ubuntu/dolibarr_x.z.*.tar.gz
    
- For Dev, you can also add link series to GIT HEAD.
- For stable, you can init from command line
	cd bzr/dolibarr-stable
    bzr init
    bzr add
    bzr commit -m "Init"
    bzr push lp:~yourlogin/dolibarr/stable

- List of series are visible here: https://launchpad.net/dolibarr/+series

# To update Dolibarr into launchpad (when remote repository for sources already exists)

    cd dolibarr-[dev|stable]
    # Update
    bzr update
	-- Update files here: Remove all (except .bzr dir) and overwrite --
    bzr status
	bzr add *
    bzr commit -m "Upstream version x.y"
    bzr push



# Init debian dir repository into launchpad (when repository for sources does not exist)
#----------------------------------
-  Create debian directory and upload it onto bzr branch lp:~yourlogin/+junk/debian-[dev|stable]
    cd bzr
    mkdir debian
    cd debian
    cp -pr dolibarr_root/debian bzr/debian
    bzr init
    bzr add
    bzr commit -m "Init control files"
    bzr push lp:~yourlogin/+junk/debian-[dev|stable]    (put here any branch name or just bzr push if into a known branch)
- or download it from launchpad bazaar:
    cd bzr
    bzr branch lp:~yourlogin/+junk/debian-[dev|stable]

# Get debian dir repository from launchpad (when repository for sources already exists)
#----------------------------------
	cd bzr
	bzr branch lp:~yourlogin/+junk/debian-[dev|stable]

# To update debian dir into launchpad (when repository for sources already exists)

    cd debian-[dev|stable]
    bzr status
	-- Update files here: Remove all (except .bzr dir) and overwrite. Restore version into the file changelog --
    bzr commit -m "Description of change"
    bzr push lp:~yourlogin/+junk/debian-[dev|stable]



# Define a recipe into launchpad (a rule to build packages into a PPA)
#----------------------------------
- Create a file dolibarr-[beta|stable].recipe with content
    cd bzr
    vi dolibarr-[beta|stable].recipe
    	For beta/dev:
	    # bzr-builder format 0.3 deb-version {debupstream}-0~{revno}
		lp:dolibarr
		merge packaging lp:~yourlogin/+junk/debian-dev
    	For stable:
	    # bzr-builder format 0.3 deb-version {debupstream}-2~{revno}
		lp:dolibarr/stable
		merge packaging lp:~yourlogin/+junk/debian-stable
- Run command
    cd bzr
    bzr dailydeb dolibarr-[beta|stable].recipe working-dir
  This will create a directory "working-dir" with dolibarr sources and will add sources from ~yourlogin/+junk/debian-[dev|stable]
- Test package sources
    sudo pbuilder build <working-dir>/<project>_<version>.dsc
