Using the numpy buildbot for svn branches ?
Hi, I have a first prototype ready for scons support in numpy.distutils in a numpy svn branch, and would like to test it on as many configurations as possible to see whether my design is OK. Is it possible to add a branch to the buildbot ? Thanks, David

I think you can run build in buildbot by specifying branch and revision number directly in buildbot.scipy.org site. Just click on the name of a buildbot machine (eg `Linux x86_64 Ubuntu`) and you should get the corresponing dialog. HTH, Pearu

Thanks Pearu, there is indeed such a dialog, I just didn't think it would be possible to use the buildbot without any kind of login/pass. But unfortunately, I don't seem to get how to set up a different url: if I use branches/numpy.scons as a branch name, it does not work (there are two failed builds because of unfound url), and if I set the whole url (http://svn.scipy.org/svn/numpy/branches/numpy.scons), nothing seems to happen. cheers, David

That's one of the drawbacks of buildbot. But unfortunately, I don't seem to get how to set up a different url: if

It should have worked with the first solution. Did you try "trunk", to see if it works ? Is there somewhere the configuration file of the buildbot ? with this line for the SVN step, it should work : factory.addStep(SVN, baseURL="http://svn.scipy.org/svn/numpy/", defaultBranch="trunk") Matthieu

It does not seem to work with only trunk. This should have worked if the buildbot was setup to work with branches (or even tags, for that matter).

svnurl 'http://scipy.org/svn/numpy/trunk' Locals branch 'branches/numpy.scons'

According to the documentation, either svnurl or baseURL should be used, not both. And to use branches, baseURL must be used, so we have our answer :( Matthieu

It is numpy's buildmaster, so nothing is set in stone :) I modified the configuration file; looks like it is working. I left the debug interface online, to see how things go. If we have abuse from outside, we shall have to switch it off again, but in the meantime it remains a very useful tool. Also, remember that some of the buildclients are personal workstations, so be conservative in triggering builds. Cheers Stéfan
