Build native Linux packages (.deb/.rpm/.apk/.pkg.tar.zst) from a single PKGBUILD via MCP.

Copy the AI prompt to install this server into Claude Code, Cursor, or another agent β€” or use 1-click editor setup below.

One-click editor setup isn’t available for this listing yet β€” we don’t have a confirmed install command, and we’d rather show nothing than point your editor at the wrong package or host. Follow the project’s own setup instructions, linked above.

Documentation Overview

YAP β€” Yet Another Packager

yap-logo



report card View examples License: GPL v3 GitHub release

YAP builds native packages for multiple GNU/Linux distributions from a single PKGBUILD specification. Write your package once; get .deb, .rpm, .apk, and .pkg.tar.zst out. All builds run in isolated OCI containers (Docker or Podman).

Features

  • Multi-format output: DEB (Debian/Ubuntu), RPM (Fedora/RHEL/Rocky/openSUSE), APK (Alpine), TAR.ZST (Arch)
  • Container isolation: reproducible builds, no host contamination, Docker and Podman supported
  • PKGBUILD-based: familiar Arch Linux syntax extended with distribution and architecture overrides
  • Cross-compilation: build for a different architecture than your host
  • Dependency-aware builds: sequential by default; opt-in parallel topo-sort via --parallel
  • Package signing: APK RSA + DEB/RPM/Pacman GPG (no gpg binary required)
  • SBOM generation: CycloneDX 1.5 and SPDX 2.3 sidecars
  • Per-format compression: zstd/gzip/xz for DEB and RPM
  • Changelog support: changelog PKGBUILD field renders to native format per distro
  • Pacman scriptlets: full 6-hook lifecycle (pre/post install/upgrade/remove)
  • Structured logging: slog-based, tree rendering for long lines, zero external UI deps

Installation

One-liner (Linux/macOS, amd64/arm64):

Terminal
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/M0Rf30/yap/main/scripts/install.sh | sh

Pin a version or install only one tool:

Terminal
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/M0Rf30/yap/main/scripts/install.sh \
  | sh -s -- --version v2.1.3 --tool yap

Manual download:

bash
wget https://github.com/M0Rf30/yap/releases/latest/download/yap_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz
tar -xzf yap_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz
sudo mv yap /usr/local/bin/
yap version

Build from source

bash
git clone https://github.com/M0Rf30/yap.git
cd yap
make build
sudo mv yap /usr/local/bin/

Requires Docker or Podman:

bash
# Docker
sudo systemctl enable --now docker && sudo usermod -aG docker $USER

# Podman
sudo systemctl enable --now podman

Quick start

1. Project structure

Create yap.json:

config.json
{
  "name": "My Package",
  "description": "A sample package built with YAP",
  "buildDir": "/tmp/yap-build",
  "output": "artifacts",
  "projects": [
    { "name": "my-package" }
  ]
}

2. PKGBUILD

Create my-package/PKGBUILD:

bash
pkgname=my-package
pkgver=1.0.0
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="My awesome application"
arch=('x86_64')
license=('GPL-3.0')
url="https://github.com/user/my-package"
makedepends=('gcc' 'make')
source=("https://github.com/user/my-package/archive/v${pkgver}.tar.gz")
sha256sums=('SKIP')

build() {
    cd "${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}"
    make
}

package() {
    cd "${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}"
    install -Dm755 my-package "${pkgdir}/usr/bin/my-package"
    install -Dm644 README.md "${pkgdir}/usr/share/doc/${pkgname}/README.md"
}

3. Build

bash
# Auto-detect host distro from /etc/os-release
yap build .

# Specific distribution
yap build ubuntu-jammy .
yap build fedora-38 /path/to/project
yap build --cleanbuild --no-makedeps ubuntu-jammy .

4. Output

Code

Project configuration (yap.json)

config.json
{

  "buildDir": "/tmp/yap-builds",
  "output": "dist",
  "projects": [
    { "name": "package-one", "install": true },
    { "name": "package-two" }
  ]
}

descriptionyesβ€”Project collection description
buildDiryesβ€”Build/working directory

sbomFormatnobothcyclonedx/spdx/both

Build ordering between packages comes from the install flag and each PKGBUILD's depends/makedepends β€” there is no yap.json-level depends field. See yap.schema.json for the complete spec.

Editor validation (JSON Schema)

A JSON Schema for yap.json ships at the repo root: yap.schema.json. It documents every supported field (compression, signing, repos, SBOM, cross-compilation, etc.). Reference it from your yap.json for autocomplete and inline validation in editors that support JSON Schema:

config.json
{
  "$schema": "https://www.schemastore.org/yap.json",
  "name": "My Multi-Package Project",
  "...": "..."
}

The schema is published on SchemaStore, so editors (VS Code, JetBrains, Neovim, …) validate any yap.json by filename automatically β€” no $schema line required.

PKGBUILD extensions

Distribution-specific variables

Use __ (double underscore) to override any variable per distribution. Priority (highest wins):

2distrodepends__ubuntu
1package managerdepends__apt
0base (fallback)depends
bash

pkgdesc__debian="My application for Debian/Ubuntu"
pkgdesc__ubuntu_noble="My application optimized for Ubuntu 24.04"

makedepends=('gcc' 'make')
makedepends__apt=('build-essential' 'cmake')
makedepends__yum=('gcc-c++' 'cmake3')
makedepends__ubuntu_noble=('build-essential' 'cmake' 'pkg-config' 'libtool')

Architecture-specific variables

bash
depends=('glibc' 'gcc')
depends_x86_64=('glibc' 'gcc' 'lib32-glibc')
depends_aarch64=('glibc' 'gcc' 'aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc')

sha256sums=('generic_hash')
sha256sums_x86_64=('x86_64_specific_hash')
sha256sums_aarch64=('aarch64_specific_hash')

bash
# BLAKE2b (recommended)
b2sums=('2f240f2a3d2f8d8f...')

# CRC32 (format: checksum filesize)
cksums=('1234567890 2048576')

Changelog

bash
changelog=CHANGELOG.md
  • DEB: usr/share/doc/<pkgname>/changelog.Debian.gz (Lintian-compliant)
  • RPM: native %changelog entries embedded in package metadata
  • Pacman: .CHANGELOG in the archive
  • APK: ignored (no Alpine convention)

Pacman scriptlets

bash
pre_install()  { echo "Before install"; }
post_install() { systemctl daemon-reload; }
pre_upgrade()  { systemctl stop myservice; }
post_upgrade() { systemctl start myservice; }
pre_remove()   { systemctl disable myservice; }
post_remove()  { systemctl daemon-reload; }

Emitted to <pkgname>.install only when at least one hook is defined. pre/post_upgrade fall back to pre/post_install when absent.

Package manager-specific fields

bash
# DEB
section=utils
priority=optional

# RPM
group="Applications/System"
requires_pre=('shadow-utils')

# APK

Model Context Protocol (MCP)

YAP ships a companion yap-mcp binary that exposes the same build pipeline over the Model Context Protocol, so any MCP-compatible LLM client (Claude Desktop, opencode, Cursor, Zed, Continue, Goose, …) can drive yap directly.

Quickstart (release binary):

Terminal
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/M0Rf30/yap/main/scripts/install.sh | sh
# then add { "mcpServers": { "yap": { "command": "yap-mcp" } } } to your client config
