When you need to create a new package, or just determine whether existing recipe code is appropriate for your package, you can select an example recipe as a reference. Existing packages throughout rBuilder Online demonstrate a wide range of recipe approaches.
If you have a difficult time breaking down the recipe code and figuring out just what's going on, look at some of the basic recipe templates here to see how you could develop the recipe appropriate for your package.
Use these templates in conjunction with the following resources:
Reference all the actions you can add to your recipe in Conary Recipe Actions, Macros, and Variables at docs.rpath.com/conary.
Create and use repeatable recipe code to use across multiple packages using the information in Factory Automation for Recipes at docs.rpath.com/conary.
Each template provided shows an empty buildRequires list. Conary already has a significant list of build requirements that it automatically uses, and it can report to you any other items you need to include in your own recipe. Place the empty buildRequires in your package recipe as a placeholder. Then, after you build the package for the first time, go back and add any build requirements as advised by Conary in the build messages.
