Substitute ${name} for the value of the named instance.

Space (' '), underscore (_), and dash (-) will be replaced by dot (.) to separate tokens in the System property. Space (' '), dash (-), and dot (.) will be replaced by underscore (_) to separate tokens in the environment variable, such that:

${name} System Property Environment Variable

${name}	System Property	Environment Variable
foobar	`foobar`	`FOOBAR`
fooBar	`foobar`	`FOOBAR`
foo bar	`foo.bar`	`FOO_BAR`
foo-bar	`foo.bar`	`FOO_BAR`
foo_bar	`foo.bar`	`FOO_BAR`
foo.bar	`foo.bar`	`FOO_BAR`

Tokens

The repository token environment variable must match with the chosen Release service.

On GitHub, you can’t use the default secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN as this token only works for the repository that’s running the workflow. You must configure a Personal Access Token (PAT) instead. It is recommended that you use "fine-grained" PATs, rather than "classic" ones. The token must have:

Access to your tap repository; if this repository is part of a GitHub organization, make sure to choose that organization as the resource owner; if that organization doesn’t show up in the "resource owner" drop-down, contact your organization adminstrator and ask them to enable PAT access for that repository
The "Contents read and write" repository permission

DownloadURL

JReleaser follows these rules to find the download URL to use for a given artifact:

if artifact.extraProperties.specDownloadUrl exists, use it.
if artifact.extraProperties.downloadUrl exists, use it.
if explicit downloadUrl is set on spec, use it.
if distribution.extraProperties.specDownloadUrl exists, use it.
if distribution.extraProperties.downloadUrl exists, use it.
if releaser.${release}.skipRelease is false then use the releaser’s downloadUrl.
if releaser.${release}.skipRelease is true then look for a matching uploader given an extraProperty named downloadUrlFrom on artifact, distribution, `spec (in that order). The value must be <uploaderType>:<uploaderName> such as "artifactory:app" or "s3:uploads".
fail if no suitable URL is found.

With no extra configuration from your side rule 6. will be chosen which is the suitable default that most projects need.

Example

Assuming the current version is 1.2.3, and a distribution named app, the above configuration will generate a app.spec file in the duke/duke-spec repository:

Name:      app
Version:   1.2.3
Release:   1%{?dist}
Summary:   Sample App

License:   Apache-2.0
URL:       https://acme.com/app
Source0:   https://github.com/duke/app/releases/download/v1.2.3/app-1.2.3.tar.gz

BuildArch: noarch
Requires:  java

%description
Sample app

%prep
%setup -q

%install
mkdir -p %{buildroot}%{_bindir}
%define _appdir %{buildroot}%{_datadir}/%{name}
mkdir -p %{_appdir}/bin

cat > %{buildroot}%{_bindir}/app <<-EOF
#!/bin/sh
%{_datadir}/%{name}/bin/app "$@"
EOF
chmod 0755 %{buildroot}%{_bindir}/app

mkdir -p %{_appdir}/lib
install -p -m 755 bin/app %{_appdir}/bin/app
install -p -m 644 lib/app-%{version}.jar %{_appdir}/lib/app-%{version}.jar

%files
%{_bindir}/%{name}
%{_datadir}/%{name}/bin/app
%{_datadir}/%{name}/lib/app-%{version}.jar

You may configure automated builds with Fedora COPR or any other service that accepts spec files as inputs.

Templates

The default location for templates is:

src/jreleaser/distributions/<distribution-name>/spec

The following list shows the filenames that may be used to override default templates:

app.spec.tpl

Any additional files found in the template directories will be copied as is unless their filename ends with .tpl in which case Name Templates substitution will take place.

Templates may be initialized using the template command

Skip Templates

You may skip any template files by defining a set of skip rules in the skipTemplates property. For example, you may use any of these expressions to skip a template named README.md.tpl:

README.md.tpl: matches the full template name
README.md: matches the transformed template name
README.*: matches using a regex

Skip Artifacts

If there is more than one matching artifact in a given distribution you may add a skipSpec extra property to the target artifact to mark it as skipped for packaging with spec.

Skip License

If there’s a matching LICENSE file available at the root of the project it will be copied to the repository by default. You may set an extra property named skipLicenseFile on spec to skip this behavior.

Repository

The repository section allows setting extra properties that may be used to provide additional hints when interacting with the git repository that holds packager files.

GitLab

Define a projectIdentifier property to directly locate the project associated with the repository, such as

YAML
TOML
JSON
Maven
Gradle

packagers:
  spec:
    repository:
      extraProperties:
        projectIdentifier: 12345678

[packagers.spec]
  repository.extraProperties.projectIdentifier = "12345678"

{
  "packagers": {
    "spec": {
      "repository": {
        "extraProperties": {
          "projectIdentifier": "12345678"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

<jreleaser>
  <packagers>
    <spec>
      <repository>
        <extraProperties>
          <projectIdentifier>12345678</projectIdentifier>
        </extraProperties>
      </repository>
    </spec>
  </packagers>
</jreleaser>

jreleaser {
  packagers {
    spec {
      repository {
        extraProperties.put("projectIdentifier", "12345678")
      }
    }
  }
}
