Ticket #290 (closed task: fixed)

Daily snapshot builds

Reported by: larsivi Assigned to: larsivi
Priority: major Milestone: 0.97 RC 1

Description

This should use the script in #289 to create daily builds which users can easily install and be ready to use Tango.

Points to consider:

  • Platforms - what is platform dependent and what is not - the creation may need to be distributed?
  • Upload possibilities for non-local builds if necessary
  • will most likely need good bandwidth

We have decided to have a src snapshot and a binary snapshot. The src one is fully generated by the script snapshotbuilder.d in trunk/install/snapshot/ (should be moved to snapshotsrc.d). It would be nice to have it installed on the server - when compiled this one shouldn't need much more care for now.

The binary snapshot is more difficult. (see #289 for where it stands).

  • milestone changed from 0.96 Beta 2 to 0.97 RC 1.

This (mainly binary snapshots) needs more work.

larsivi,

I've been traveling, so couldn't work on this until now. I'm attempting to use WebDAV, and use the same perms as SVN does, namely the dsource site-wide stuffies. To this end, I've gone a bit different direction, copying apache configs from there.

See if you can set this up as a web folder in KDE, or in IE, or some WebDAV client. I am still having difficulties with perms (in IE), but if you go down to the 0.96-beta2 folder to a specific file, the download works. It's just upload via WebDAV that's missing now. Let me know when you have a bit of time to test, maybe Monday? I'm probably going to continue to make the travel up to my family tomorrow (Sunday), so get me via IRC at some point next week.

  • owner changed from brad to larsivi.
  • status changed from assigned to new.

Access via webdav (using KDE filebrowser) seems to work perfectly. Can access, upload and delete.

Will take over this until we eventually may be able to build snapshots on dsource itself.

Daily src snapshots and binary dmd snapshots for linux are now up.

  • status changed from new to closed.
  • resolution set to fixed.

Builds are now up, I think other "needed" snapshots should be in their own tickets as they show up.
