Hello,
My name is Georgiy and I live in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. I study
Information Science at SPbPU and at the moment I'm in my 3rd year.
My university collaborates with Altera corporation which is famous for its
FPGA boards and EDA-tools for FPGA design. One of them is Quartus II
(recently renamed into Quartus Prime) that has an almost full-featured free
version.
The fact is, Quartus II provides very functional command-line interface and
supports Tcl scripting. So it's possible to create a plugin for Jenkins to
integrate it with Quartus II and make the FPGA design process a lot easier!
:) Even small FPGA projects take considerable time to build as there are
dozens of utilities incorporated into the design flow - that's why CI would
be useful for big projects which can take very long time to build. And
automation of testing and verification would be very useful, too.
I think that such a plugin would be quite helpful for developers that work
with Quartus II especially considering the fact that for now there are no
EDA-integration plugin for Jenkins at all (I've checked plugin
repositories, too).
Personally I am interested in that project ("Plugins for EDA and Embedded
Dev. tools integration") and I have all the skills that are required
<https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Google+Summer+Of+Code+2016>
for it:
- basic knowledge of Jenkins (as a user);
- basic knowledge of Java programming language (apart from study
projects I created a game for Android and took part in developing an
application
<https://bitbucket.org/WhiteCodeSolutionLab/iot-logmerger/overview> that
automates work with log files in distributed systems);
- hands-on experience with Quartus II (almost 1 year) and a prototyping
board (prodvided by the university).
