Hi all, Just to let you know of "njs2rpm", a NodeJS to RPM converter that tries to follow the RH/Fedora packaging guidelines and more! See the project page for more relevant info.

https://github.com/sfreire/njs2rpm

All made in Bash, without weird dependencies and (.spec) template based.

Features: - supports RHEL6 and RHEL5/Centos5 (yes, RHEL5!) - runs and build RPM packages on these systems - simple creation of RPM obtaining sources directly from NPM Registry, of any package and version available! - does not require Perl, Python, Ruby and a bulk of dependencies in order to run! It's made in shell script: "BASH" to the rescue! - supports NodeJS packaging guidelines used in Fedora/EPEL (and upcoming RedHat versions) for building clean ("single") packages - supports the creation of "bundle" packages with all dependencies pre-bundled, overcoming the "limitation" of some modules with dependency problems! - supports RPM (or .spec) creation based on template files in order to customized the generated RPM

Examples: njs2rpm uglify-js 2.4.1 1 single rpm njs2rpm uglify-js 2.4.1 1 bundle rpm njs2rpm express 3.4.4 1 bundle spec mytemplate.n2r

PS: a .spec is provided along with a Makefile and a "mock" script, whatever you prefer.

Regards, Sergio Freire
