NAME

       dh-make-drupal - Builds a Debian package for the requested Drupal project

DESCRIPTION

       The  purpose  of  this  program is to generate Debian packages for any Drupal projects (that is, modules,
       themes or translations) - Please note note that as of October  2010  the  infrastructure  for  publishing
       translations has changed, so its current support status through this program is suboptimal

       Given  that  Drupal  developers publish their work through the main Drupal site (http://drupal.org), this
       program fetches the information for the latest available versions (for the right Drupal release, and with
       the specified stability level), and prepares a Debian package from it.

       This Debian package can be locally installed using 'dpkg', or uploaded to your Apt repository.

       Keep  in  mind  that  this  package  only  goes  as far as it can, being an automated tool. The generated
       packages will probably require verification/tweaking to be of production quality.

       This program  has  been  inspired  -and  named  in  a  similar  fashion  to-  Debian's  pkg-perl  group's
       dh-make-perl.

       -v, --version

       -h, --help
              Display this screen

       -d, --drupal-version VERSION
              Drupal version

       -r, --report-only
              Check  only for project availability, don't download or perform any other actions locally. Implies
              -D.

       -f, --force
              Proceed even if this will overwrite currently existing files

       --debug LEVEL
              Debug level for generated messages (0=highest, 5=lowest)

       -s, --min-status STATUS
              Minimum  status  to  consider  for  packaging.  Accepted   values:   'recommended',   'supported',
              'developer'. Defaults to recommended.

       -D, --dont-debianize
              Do not attempt to debianize the project, only download the tarball

       -b, --no-build
              Prepare  the  debianized  directory,  but  omit  the  actual package build process. This option is
              incompatible with either -D and -r.

       -R, --no-recommends
              Omits the generation of the Recommends: line, which is built  by  scanning  of  submodule-provided
              .info files and may be misleading or introducing too much noise

       --build-switches SWITCHES
              Switches to pass to  dpkg-buildpackage. Defaults to "-us -uc" (do not sign the generated package).
              In order not to give any switches, specify an empty quoted string (i.e. --build-switches='').

       -t, --tarball FILE
              Use the specified tarball as the original project tar.gz,  don't  look  for  any  other  available
              versions  and  don't  download  from  the  Drupal website. This will require you also to provide a
              project version number with -V and the project type with -T

       -T, --proj-type TYPE
              Type of project we are packaging. This option is only meaningful when working on a  local  tarball
              (-t),  and  will  be  ignored  otherwise.  Accepted  values: %s. Defaults to ["Modules", "Themes",
              "Translations"].

       -V, --proj_version VERSION
              Provide a project version number. This option is only meaningful when working on a  local  tarball
              (-t), and will be ignored otherwise

       -m, --mangle-version PATTERN
              Debian  versioning  logic  includes  the  ??~?? character meaning ??anything below?? the preceding
              version number. This is most  useful  when  dealing  with  pre-release  qualificators  (in  order,
              1.x-dev,  1.0-alpha1,  1.0-beta,  1.0rc3).  dh-make-drupal will try to recognize such patterns and
              mangle them so they sort correctly in Debian (and so that when a stable  version  is  released  it
              appears  as  higher  -  For  the  above  mentioned  version  numbers, they would result in 1~~dev,
              1.0~alpha1, 1.0~beta, 1.0~rc3). You can use this  switch  to  tell  dh-make-drupal  to  omit  this
              mangling.

       -P, --provides SUBMODULES
              generate  the  Provides: line, which is built from specified comma-separated submodules. They will
              all be converted to what would amount to their Debian package name -- i.e.  "-P  foo,bar"  becomes
              "Provides: drupal7-mod-foo, drupal7-mod-bar" (when building a Drupal7 module).
