User Question: 1 builder -> 2 buildslaves

Hi All,

I have a question I cannot find an answer after reading the manual, and doing some test; hope someone can help here;

I setup a buildmaster and two buildslaves on two distinct hosts (Ubuntu 12.04 and Debian Weezy)

Configured a builder and assigned to both slaves to build my code on both the hosts

When the SVNPoller notice something has changed in the repo, I was expecting the build process to start on both hosts, to test the build on both O.S.

It seams the build process starts only on one of the slaves instead, and the one that is started seem random (I did not see a pattern)

I notice there is a param "nextSlave" to decide which slave to run. So my question is: If I set multiple slaves for the same builder, only one slave is run?

Can I set up the master/slave system to kick the build on all my buildslaves at once?

Many thanks
Sergio

Getting pass/fail status from JSON API

Hello,

Is there an easy way to get the pass/fail status of a builder (or all
builders) from the JSON API? The examples I've seen seem to look for
particular text substrings in the "text" property, which seems a little
brittle.

Thanks

Mike

Conceptual Questions: Change-based BuildStep

Hi,

I am still fairly new to BuildBot and I am still a bit confused about some of the concepts. Is it possible to define a BuildStep via BuildFactory with information from multiple changes? For example, let say one of the Build contain a SourceStamp that points to 2 ChangeS. Is it possible to define a BuildStep to cherry pick those 2 ChangeS to current HEAD? or do I need to subclass something to archive this?

I noticed there are Properties set but they appear to belong to only one of the change? (or may be it's just the web UI showing properties of one change and there's actually an array of build properties?)

Regards,
Kenny

e-mail notifications based on scheduler type

Hi everybody,

I have e-mail notifications configured for certain builders. However,
these builders are triggered either by different schedulers
(Triggering, Try, Force etc). Is it possible to send e-mail
notifications for a builder but only if it was triggered by a
particular scheduler? I see no such option in the MailNotifier class
so I was wondering if there is a "good" way to do that.

Tools for GSoC mentors

Hello GSoC Mentors,

As you are participating to Google Summer of Code, I'm wondering if you
could consider using Flower Dev Center [1] while working with students.

Flower Dev Center is an online platform for UML modeling diagramming,
with a strong focus on code synchronization, integration with dev tools
(Git, SVN, etc) and real time collaboration on diagrams (and a little
bit on code as well).

We think Flower Dev Center can be helpful for both: mentors and students
during Google Summer of Code. We have created an article on this topic
(i.e. Flower Dev Center + GSoC): [2], [3].

If you have a couple of spare minutes, could you tell us if you would
like to use Flower Dev Center? And/or raise topics that you think are
important (based on previous GSoC participations) to be supported by
Flower Dev Center?

The next version of Flower Dev Center, the 2.0.0 planned for June/July
2013, has major new features, that we did not demonstrate yet and that
will improve even more the collaboration between developers.

Flower Dev Center doesn't currently support Python programming language.
But if you are interested in using Flower Dev Center, we'll prioritize
it's implementation and we'll work hard to do it ASAP, with Flower Dev
Center 2.0.0.

Thank you in advance!

Best regards,
Mircea <at> The Flower Platform Team.

Template folder

Hello

Maybe i should explain in details what I want to achieve.

Im working on the UI of a buildbot installation. My html files are located in the status/web/templates folder.

I have downloaded buildbot version Nine to get some inspiration and can see that the UI has another location. buildbot / www / src

I want to keep the default html files in status/web/templates folder unchanged and make a new UI in another folder (running Buildbot version: 0.8.7p1)..

How do I do that?

I already tried overwriting the default templates by copying them to the files folder but that did not work.

Greetings,

Simon

Grace Hopper Open Source Day

Lukas Blakk contacted me to invite Buildbot to the 2013 Grace Hopper
Open Source Day in Minneapolis, MN on October 5.  The event would be
similar to the Buildbot sprints at PyCon, but shorter (one day) and
focused on new contributors.  In particular, this event would provide
an opportunity for women to hack on Buildbot and connect with the
Buildbot community.

This will be part of the Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in
Computing - http://gracehopper.org/2013/.  The info for this year's
GHOSD isn't up yet, but last year's is described here:
  http://gracehopper.org/2012/conference/grace-hopper-open-source-day/

I'd love to see Buildbot represented here, but personal complications
make it hard to know if I'll be able to attend.  If you can be there,
please let me know so that I can let the organizers know that Buildbot
will be participating.

Dustin

How many project per master?

Hello,

How many projects can I have controlled by one master?

I currently have 5 masters for different projects.

Each master has between 26 and 48 builds to control.

I was thinking of merging all of them into one.

I just want to make sure buildbot will be okay with this.

My goal is to have my 14 slave systems have 8 builder processes each.

These 8 builders building any of the projects that need to be built.

As of now I have co nfigured the buildbot master to have two slaves for each master on each slave node.

The problem is the slaves are either under used or over used depending on what is happening in subversion.

Thank you for your comments.

Diane

subversion push to buildbot

Hello,

I setup subversion to push to buildbot via the svn_buildbot.py script.

Buildbot sees the change and it shows up in the water fall as a path relative to the root of my repository.

... then nothing... no builds.

I'm guessing I have something wrong with my change filter or something...

Can someone PLEASE post a full, clear example with multiple build slaves, targets (filters) of a working master.cfg

Thank you.

Consoldate Build Failure Emails?

I have setup a couple builders that can be triggered by the same check-in. When it so happens that the check-in breaks the build in more than one of the builders, the person who submitted it gets multiple build fail emails, one for each builder that failed for the single check-in. Is it possible to have BuildBot consolidate the multiple failures down to one email instead that lists all the failed builders?
