A couple of weeks ago I published a little blog post about setting up a new #LLVM #Buildbot.

This points out a few changes for actual local development and testing.

Автоматизация подписи кода в современных условиях

Подпись кода — это процесс проставления цифровой подписи на программном обеспечении. Цифровая подпись гарантирует пользователю, что программа является неподдельной и что её код не подвергся никаким изменениям в промежутке между созданием программы и выпуском. В старые времена для подписи билдов использовалась подписи GPG , а секретные ключи хранились где-нибудь на флэшке. Потом для приложений Windows появились система Authenticode . Сейчас для опенсорса и проприетарных ОС постепенно внедряются новые методы автоматизации подписи кода.

#buildbot release 420
most calmest release ever? 🌿🥦🌳
err … i mean … release 4.2.0
https://github.com/buildbot/buildbot/releases/tag/v4.2.0

“There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.”

Reddit loves to hate on Jenkins, but they don't even talk about Buildbot. I'm not the last one running it am I? #buildbot #cicd

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/BAM-3175

I am watching this ticket since 2013. Every couple of years I get a notification about some poor soul asking the same question again. And it triggers nostalgic feelings about the world long gone.

If you ever wondered, if Bamboo by #Atlassian is worth anything as a build or ci system, it is not.

That was my first job as a Build Engineer and the best thing I did was that I deployed #Buildbot server and moved our test automation to it.

Also, for some very weird reason, I had to rewrite my #buildbot service unit to so some arbitrary delay before start so it starts correctly, even though it already has a

After=network-online.target

in it. I'm probably missing some other dependency...

Also, you shouldn't simply change the repo URL in #buildbot, this will break things

Oh! I didn't set `treeStableTimer`.

With so many complications, I think I could write a new blog article about #buildbot

Hah! I had to add a "branch" param to the curl request!
This means I'll lose the "actual changes", though (i.e. I won't see those in the buildbot web interface).

However, I don't like that https://github.com/buildbot/buildbot-contrib/blob/master/master/contrib/git_buildbot.py seems to generate a single build for every change submitted, even though the collapseRequests option is set to True...

#buildbot

#buildbot
I think the "Change Hook" is not supposed to directly trigger builds, and only communicates changes?

Can I trigger builds with the simple "base" change hook in #buildbot ?

I enabled the base dialect and can indeed submit changes to buildbot with

curl -v "http://localhost:8010/change_hook?comments=foo&author=uvok"

But that only adds a change and doesn't trigger a build.

Sigh… Using #IPv6 is still sooo fraught with problems & pitfalls that lurk deep in code bases. Latest project: #Buildbot As there wasn't much info out there on using it with #IPv6 (possibly even IPv6-only hosts), I've written up the notes I made configuring it in my environment: https://www.bunkus.org/blog/2022/11/running-buildbot-on-ipv6/

#introduction

Hello tooters! I'm an #embedded #SoftwareEngineer using #c #cplusplus #sh #GNUMake #Perl #Buildroot #Buildbot #Javascript #Thrift #Bootstrap #EclipseCDT #KDE #Debian #Linux to make high speed #microwave #radio network devices.

Also I build and #ride #bicycles outside in #Devon and inside on #Zwift, enjoy #cooking, #beer, red #wine and #coffee 😋

In a different life I might have been in #infosec #particlephysics #astrophysics #chemistry or #robotics !

Finally Open Sourcing a thing!

https://pypi.org/project/buildbot-phorge/

If you use #phabricator / #phorge (ehem #FreeBSD folks, ehem) and have always wanted to integrate it with #buildbot, this is your thing.

I've been using a much clumsier version of this for years, just made the time to clean up some quirks and apply better understanding of #buildbot's APIs.

Do let me know if you find this useful :-).

We're almost done with moving our #prosody nightly builds into #buildbot and then we can get rid of the inexplicably slow yet immortal AWS instance currently doing those.

As much as I like Buildbot's approach of specifying build pipelines as code, it is a bit too object-oriented for my taste.

#Buildbot

Currebtly pondering whether how to deploy / build my Jekyll site.
Git post-receive hook vs #buildbot?

Ich habe es geschafft, mir den Build meiner Webseite (auf #Hugo aufgebaut) mit #Buildbot zu automatisieren.
Jetzt muss ich nur noch in mein #Codeberg Repository pushen und kurz danach ist meine Änderung auf der Webseite aktiv 😃

https://buildbot.net/

Hmm, #buildbot doesn't seem to like me. It seems my GitPoller change_source doesn't do anything. And I don't find how to potentially debug from there to figure out why it's not doing what it's supposed to.
