Hello, I am glad that things about opencontrail community are moving forward..
I am mostly interested in packaging (as a Debian Maintainer) so I guess
I can help here a little.
Some thoughts about what should such document describe (according to
some "missing pieces" that people are asking about):
- components and their individual testing (eg. unit tests of vrouter,
controller, python tests, etc.)
- infrastructural, cross-component testing (using Fabric tooling)
- build process and cross-component dependencies (as it's kind-of
spaghetti, scons, generation of python code, etc.)
- it also includes way how to get all the source code, eg.
contrail-vnc or maybe better tooling that we are using [1]
- packages build (Debian + RHEL), contrail-packages vs.
contrail-packaging
- build and maintanence of 3rd party dependencies (we know this is and
always was a mess) - eg. kafka, some python- modules, etc.
- this is something that needs to get better, resp. we already did it
at tcpcloud/Mirantis so we can help here [2] by providing
pipelines and flow to build and maintain these packages
- bundled 3rd party dependencies (bind, etc.) with extra patches which
is very dirty and should not exist at all - these extra dependencies
should be also maintained as separate distribution packages
- branching and releasing - this was always a mess, not communicated at
all, almost no one knows what branch is stable, development, which one
to use for production and how they are maintained
That are my initial inputs, I think we can gather more.
Filip
