Wonderful timing, I was just about to start a new thread wrt getting the nightlies back online. And so I'll move my thoughts here. ---- So, with the mini hackathon out of the way, and our new buddy MrStruts taking care of the continuous integration for us (ok, he isn't doing much right now, but he is there and ready to roll), I'd like to turn at least some of my attention to getting the nightlies back online. Sorry if this was already discussed/decided on a different thread, I'm behind on every list I am currently subscribed to, except [EMAIL PROTECTED] I plan to have MrStruts do full nightly builds using a similar nightly script to the one I was using for many months with the Maven 1 built nightlies. I'm in the process (as I type this) of creating the necessary build scripts to produce nightly artifacts of Struts Action 1 (1.2.x and 1.3.x), Struts Action 2, and Shale. Currently, we publish the nightlies here: http://people.apache.org/builds/struts/ ...and I see Craig has begun publishing Shale nightlies to this spot: http://people.apache.org/builds/struts/maven2/shale/ So, on that note, I'll begin publishing Action 1 and 2 nightlies in a (almost) similar fashion. Craig, I've already zapped the 'maven' directory, can we: 1. remove the extra directory 'maven2' and just have p.a.o/builds/ struts/shale (requires you to change your scp script)? 2. rm -fr 'nightly' from the same dir?
Not a problem ... I'll switch for tonight's build. Indeed, I hadn't announced the destination until we had a chance to coordinate across the various builds. I published my shell script from before this change in an earlier response to Wendy's questions ... it's four simple substitutions. So, (high level) we would have:
http://people.apache.org/builds/struts/shale http://people.apache.org/builds/struts/action1/1.2.x/ http://people.apache.org/builds/struts/action1/1.3.x/ http://people.apache.org/builds/struts/action2 http://people.apache.org/builds/struts/tiles (eventually) ...and each directory (Maven 2 built) would have a directory for the particular module, which would have the current jar, war, or zip, and 6 days prior. How does this sound?
Sounds good, but I've got some additional thoughts that I would like to see us implement consistently. * In addition to publishing artifacts in this directory, I'm also updating the snapshots for all the poms and jars. That way, people who like to live dangerously :-) and have dependencies on the HEAD code effectively get daily updates, without having to manually check out the sources and rebuild them. * I succumbed to my historical habits :-) and produced both .zip and .tar.gz versions of the artifacts. I'd be open to publishing only in zip format since it's pretty universal, and we don't particularly care about file permissions in what we publish (i.e. no executables to worry about). * I'm really happy with the way that the assemblies constructed by the Shale build scripts (both for the framework itself, and for each individual sample app) are themselves buildable if you have Maven2 installed. This kind of thing will encourage others to get on the bandwagon (listen to me, the latecomer :-), even if they don't want to try to download and build the framework itself from Subversion. I'd like to see this approach implemented consistently across our artifacts. * I'm not so happy with the lukewarm support Maven2 currently offers for integration testing. Wendy got inspired by some comments on the user mailling list for Maven, though, and created a nice workaround in the poms for the Shale sample apps. If you do something like: mvn install -Pitest then you can run the system integration tests built into the same project, rather than having to set up a parallel project for those tests. Shale's integration tests happen to be built with HtmlUnit, but it should be equally feasible to use Canoo or whatever else you like. We're also leveraging the Cargo plugin to even start and stop your favorite container for you. Craig Wendy wrote:

Sorry, it's been a heck of a month this week ;) My questions would have been about the POM changes that Sean eluded to during our mini hackathon. I could be wrong, but I thought he said there would be an issue with something we needed and it not being published yet and that may or may not have stemmed from a private conversation you may or may not have had over IM. Sorry, the details are still a little cloudy. Forget about it for now, I'm sure if it's a problem we'll know as soon as we begin adding more projects to Continuum. -- James Mitchell On Jun 19, 2006, at 9:20 PM, Wendy Smoak wrote: > On 6/14/06, James Mitchell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> Yes.
