How it works

• Stage 1 - RPM spec files, regular repositories. They are provided with CI to test the changes automatically. Two types of CI are available: build and build-core. Build-core doesn't include Clear Fraction RPM repository; for example, if we need to build a package with Clear ffmpeg headers. Also build-core will save some time for unpacking and installing CF repository.

• Stage 2 - mass-rebuild workflow featching the latest RPM spect and build packages by sheduler. If build failed - fix spec in package repository and hit "rebuild" button in Github Actions interface. New build can be triggered manually, one failed package can be rebuilded too.

• Stage 3 - bundles workflow will be triggered automatically and will fetch the last mass-rebuild artifacts and create new release. A release is immutable, unless it's totally broken like non-upgradable - do not touch, just fix the bugs and create new release. After successful build this workflow will hit a hosting service to deploy new release.

How to build software using Clear Fraction libraries like x264, x265 or CUDA

• install GCC and third-party libraries:

# sudo swupd bundle-add c-basic
# sudo swupd 3rd-party bundle-add codecs-cuda devpkg-codecs-cuda

# if you don't need CUDA:
# sudo swupd 3rd-party bundle-add codecs devpkg-codecs

• add Clear Fraction paths:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/3rd-party/bundles/clearfraction/usr/local/lib64:/opt/3rd-party/bundles/clearfraction/usr/lib64:"$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/3rd-party/bundles/clearfraction/usr/local/include:/opt/3rd-party/bundles/clearfraction/usr/include:"$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"

Now check if the library is available:

$ pkg-config --list-all | grep x265
...
x265          x265 - H.265/HEVC video encoder
...
