The previous version worked on modules that had *no* user (a setup most
of mine had as the user was set in the ssh config).
For modules with a user set the trailing '@' was included in the uid
which make the check fail even when the module was correct. (Though I
had thought I had tested this case with other modules).
In the past some KDE SVN modules used the "svn external" feature to pull
in other SVN repositories. These svn-external links were on the *server*
side so the link URL had to use a single scheme.
This scheme was https, which caused quite some problems for anonsvn
users just trying to update from SVN being an unattended kdesrc-build
run, as the SSL cert for svn.kde.org was not signed by a well-known CA.
As a result kdesrc-build updated svn automatically with the expected KDE
SVN SSL signature to avoid blocking on the interactive warning.
This is no longer required. The modules that used svn externals have
pretty much moved onto git now. The new svn server does not even have an
https interface, so this is dead code now, and removed accordingly.
Once I figure out a "preferred" solution for this use case I'll probably
convert to that, until then no reason to pollute with warnings.
I've run a search for other uses of given/when and didn't see any.
As opposed to reading /all/ output for a given module and only
displaying it immediately before the build phase starts. This makes it
very disconcerting to track git-clone progress...
Though this only works for Git modules, it should at least fix the
annoying "OMG YOUR REPO MOVED" warnings that never get fixed when in
async mode (which is the default).
Previously you simply never saw the warning due to the now-fixed output
squelching, now we need to fix this for good as well.
In synchronous mode it was impossible to get the build subroutine to
attempt to build a module which had no source update, as the updater
code would filter out its build phase *in addition* to marking it as
up-to-date.
This never broke the async code as filtering out the build phase was
always unimplemented (which is what led to a specific IPC type for "code
up-to-date" in the first place).
The build thread owns the TTY in the current setup. To keep the update
and build processess from fighting over the TTY when in async mode,
we've been simply squelching the update output up to this point, except
for errors.
This is not really the best idea as it can leave out kind of important
details. With this change we configure the logging subsystem to forward
its messages that it would ordinarily print out to instead go over an
IPC channel.
The IPC channel knows which module is currently being operated on, tags
the message, and forwards it over to destination proc's IPC handler,
which extracts it and holds onto the message until that proc reaches the
same module.
Once the receiver proc is processing the module, those messages are all
output at once and then normal processing resumes.
In case some messages are never read out this way (e.g. a module is
updated but never built) we have a message scavenger right after the
build is done to give those messages as well.
It's kind of annoying to be unable to build all modules in a certain
kde-projects module grouping, *except* for some certain chosen ones.
Now you can: You can add the ignore-modules option in your module-sets
using kde-projects repository.
It accepts a space-separated list of module names (either kdefoo or
kde/module/kdefoo style) to ignore.
Although the intention is to only filter out matching modules in *that*
module-set, it would actually perform the filtering even if you
accidentally put it in the wrong module set due to a fluke of the
implementation (I recommend not relying on this, however).
The documentation has also been updated, including an example of the
usage.
For whatever dumb reason I coded the "ignored kde-projects modules"
handling (kde-build-metadata/build-script-ignore) by having the code
that reads in the list of ignored modules go and immediately update the
build context.
For obvious reasons this only works when the update is actually
performed, which means ignore information wasn't used in pretend mode.
We fix this by moving the build context update to the rest of the
metadata handling.
This commit removes the 'megaclass' code that IPC::Pipe has become to
support two different dataflow paths in a single class.
Instead, we use up to 2 different IPC objects in async mode to give the
dataflow needed.
Splitting this up required moving the message boundary detection code
back to IPC::Pipe. It is now expected that a given IPC subclass is able
to pass messages with message boundaries intact, and to block while
waiting for messages if concurrency is supported. IPC::Null already
maintains message boundaries and doesn't support concurrency.
Previously IPC and IPC::Pipe cooperated to perform message boundary
detection, by inserting and removing '\n' characters. This was always
kind of a hack. Now we simply pass the message length across the pipe
followed by the message, and ignore the idea completely in IPC.
The impetus for all of this had been to improve performance, but
unfortunately that hasn't happened here, although it's still a positive
change from the code simplicity front.
The most noticeable effect is probably that it should be damn near
impossible not to have automoc build first now, at least in comparison
to other kde-projects modules. It also should take care of the vast
majority of the code needed for bug 312324. Still needed is handling for
Qt/Qt5.
BUG:312324
FIXED-IN:1.16
We now read in and should be able to handle branch-specific dependencies
and module dependency exclusions.
For full support we still need to find a way to properly handle Qt vs.
Qt5 modules (e.g. for phonon Five and automoc).
The last commit's first attempt had an error where the kde/foo/* syntax
would be stripped to '*', which the KDEXMLReader actually understands
perfectly. Unfortunately a bare '*' reads in all modules, including
websites and other unpleasant things.
I only caught this by chance, so add a sanity check to make this an
error in case I miss it in the future.
This should fix the big ugly error messages for this particular
scenario. The code in question is trying to determine a good branch name
that it can use, which means it need to verify that the requested branch
name *doesn't* exist. This would correspond to an exit code of 1 for the
given git command.
In pretend mode all safe_system() calls give an exit code of 0, so it
appears that there are no safe unused branch names.
Since even in pretend mode the source directory should exist in this
code path I switched to use a system() call (with the correct full
branch name to boot).
I'm not sure the other part of the bug is fixed (i.e. checking out a
local branch immediately after cloning or whatever dfaure was seeing) so
I'll leave open for now until I can do further testing.
CCBUG:311758
In the process of trying to plan out the best way to fix the issue where
module names passed on the command line that are implicit subprojects of
a kde-projects module go unrecognized, I decided that I needed a better
way to navigate the API.
There is a Doxygen::Filter::Perl available which seems decent as it
allows one to use the nice and familiar Doxygen tool, but it seems a bit
buggy still.
NaturalDocs is a tool which seems better able to cope with kdesrc-build
and its code, although it prefers comments to be formatted unlike the
normal qdoc/JavaDoc syntax used by Doxygen. However it's not that much
different and is easier to install and use otherwise. Maybe when I get
some time I'll go ahead and properly convert everything.
Skip the kde-build-metadata update phase if --no-src is passed, or if in
--pretend mode. I know I've noticed this myself and even heard
complaints about this behavior but surprisingly I can't find an open bug
to close.
This can be used as a run-time check later to ensure that kdesrc-build
finds compatible versions of its component modules (though that isn't
done yet).
This was the last remaining module embedded into the main script file,
so if we leave it here this completes the transition of modules out of
the main script.
This also required updating the test suite, which rather surprisingly
doesn't seem to need further modification (probably since the test-suite
includes kdesrc-build as a prerequisite, which sets up the @INC
modifications required).
