How to build Slackware packages with Codeship.

What are Slackware packages?

Slackware is a free distribution of Linux. It features a wide range of technology from printing to networking to services, and thanks to its advanced package management system, it’s incredibly easy to install and remove software to match your computer system's needs. Supporting this distribution is very easy, since it is backed up by a large community of developers and users.

What is Codeship?

Manually installing dependencies, setting up build servers and dealing with different CI providers on all your projects is not only time-consuming it also increases the probability of human error. Codeship automates this entire process. As soon as you push code to your git repository the tests start to run and a webhook is fired off to your project dashboard in your CI provider of choice. With just a few clicks in your Codeship dashboard you can hook up a new branch or merge request and Codeship will automatically run your test suite. And not only that each test gives you a detailed report so you know exactly what’s been tested and what isn’t.
