Use the following steps to set up the SimpleHTTPServer
machine.
These steps assume the build machine and the server are
same machine:
<orderedlist>
<listitem><para><emphasis>Create a Directory that
Contains the Packages to Host:</emphasis>
Be sure you have root privileges and place the
directory inside <filename>var/www/</filename>
(e.g. <filename>/var/www/my_repo/</filename>).
To ensure the directory contains the packages you
want to serve, you need to create a symlink from
the package feed area to the directory that hosts
the packages you want to provide:
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
my_repo # ln -s ~{TMPDIR}/deploy/<replaceable>packageformat</replaceable> ./
</literallayout>
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para><emphasis>Start the Server:</emphasis>
You can start the server by running the following
commands from the recently created directory:
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
$ cd /var/www/my_repo
$ python –m SimpleHTTPServer
</literallayout>
</para></listitem>
</orderedlist>
From within the build directory where you have built an
image based on your packaging choice (i.e. the
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#var-PACKAGE_CLASSES'><filename>PACKAGE_CLASSES</filename></ulink>
setting), simply start the server.
The following example assumes a build directory of
<filename>~/poky/build/tmp/deploy/rpm</filename> and a
<filename>PACKAGE_CLASSES</filename> setting of
"package_rpm":
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
$ cd ~/poky/build/tmp/deploy/rpm
$ python -m SimpleHTTPServer
</literallayout>
</para>
