Successful RPM Build and Install (Fedora 40)

[guzman109]

Does anyone have a way to build an RPM and install it?

I tested with version 1.21.0

The answer was made here #1368

Right now the build system is a bit confusing, I got the same error some time ago.

To build the RPM package first you need to build the NextJS app in packages/bruno-app, you can use the build:web NPM script in the root package.json for that.

I usually use this shell script:

git clone https://github.com/usebruno/bruno.git usebruno-monorepo
cd usebruno-monorepo

# checkouts the latest stable version (at the time of writing).
# you can skip this following command to build directly from the `main` branch
git checkout v1.7.0

# ensure you are using the required Node version defined in the `.nvmrc` file
# at the time of writing it is Node v18.13.0
node --version

# installs dependencies from the lockfile, you can use `npm install` too
npm ci

# these three following commands are documented in the `contributing.md` file
npm run build:graphql-docs
npm run build:bruno-query
npm run build:bruno-common

# builds the NextJS app
# the ENV environment variable:
# prod - telemetry enabled, redux debug middleware disabled
# dev  - telemetry disabled, redux debug middleware enabled
ENV=prod npm run build:web

# builds the RPM package
npm run build:electron:rpm

# installs the RPM package, you may need to use `sudo` here
dnf install packages/bruno-electron/out/*.rpm
