We run a Buildbot instance for OLA.
- Web UI: http://buildbot.openlighting.org
- IRC: OLA-buildbot in #openlighting on irc.freenode.org
We're currently only building ola, but this could be extended to do other projects such as the QT GUI etc.
Master Configuration
The buildbot master configuration is stored in git at https://code.google.com/p/open-lighting/source/browse?repo=buildbot-config . It needs checking out, and symlinking to replace master.cfg in the buildbot master's config directory.
Slave passwords aren't stored in the git repo for security, you'll need to get Simon to add new ones.
N.B. If the git repository is ever moved or changed, ensure the master's gitpoller-workdir folder is emptied out, or the poller won't work properly.
Slave Configuration
Documentation is at http://docs.buildbot.net/current/manual/installation.html#creating-a-buildslave
For our buildbot, slaves need to connect to buildbot.openlighting.org:9989
On Debian/Ubuntu, based on https://kb.askmonty.org/en/buildbot-setup-buildbot-setup-for-ubuntu-debian/, do the following: Install buildbot slave:
sudo apt-get install buildbot-slave
Create the slave:
sudo -u buildbot buildslave create-slave --usepty=0 /var/lib/buildbot/slaves/<slave name> buildbot.openlighting.org:9989 <slave user> <slave password>
Update the slave info, edit the files in /var/lib/buildbot/slaves/<slave name>/info to be relevant to you.
Add config for the slave into /etc/default/buildslave, e.g.:
SLAVE_ENABLED[1]=1 # 1-enabled, 0-disabled SLAVE_NAME[1]="ola-pi-armv6l-noopenslp-1" # short name printed on start/stop SLAVE_USER[1]="buildbot" # user to run slave as SLAVE_BASEDIR[1]="/var/lib/buildbot/slaves/<slave name>" # basedir to slave (absolute path) SLAVE_OPTIONS[1]="" # buildbot options SLAVE_PREFIXCMD[1]="" # prefix command, i.e. nice, linux32, dchroot
Start the slave
sudo /etc/init.d/buildslave start
