OBS Debian packaging question

[asdhio]

Is it possible to automate Debian packaging the way it is possible with OpenSUSE packages?
With OpenSUSE, there is a spec file, and an OBS service, which makes for pretty convenient packaging
With Debian it’s hard to understand what exactly I have to do, there’s little to no documentation online that I could find, so I’m pretty much confused
My hurdle right now is the dsc file, which I assume has to be ran locally on a Debian machine or something?

So, my question is, is it possible to automate Debian packaging using only OBS web interface (the way it’s possible with OpenSUSE packages)? The biggest hurdle for me right now is the dsc file, which doesn’t seem like it’s possible to manually craft (with all the checksum and stuff)

Open Build Service can generate dsc for you, see the above link. You could also look at any existing project that includes Debian support (like openSUSE:Tools) and start from there.
