Allen Wittenauer updated YETUS-681:
-----------------------------------
Flags: Important
Release Note:
<!-- markdown -->
This change makes significant changes to precommit to support a variety of
automation systems for continuous integration (aka robots or the `--robot`
flag) as well as rework the existing Jenkins support (`--jenkins`).
End User Changes
================
* `--jenkins` flag has been removed. `test-patch`/`qbt` should now autodetect
not only if it is running Jenkins, but also Circle CI, Gitlab CI, and Travis
CI. Please see the robots document for specifics as to how that works,
limitations, etc.
* In the specific case of Jenkins, much better support for general Jenkins
settings but also Github Branch Source Plugin using Pipelines and Github Pull
Request Plugin. In many cases, options that were previously set specifically
on the command line may be unnecessary/duplicate information and should be
removed.
* Configuration for how to run Apache Yetus against Apache Yetus for various CI
systems is now bundled with the project source.
* When running under a robot, `test-patch`/`qbt` may update the git remote
repository information for branches. This is done because in some
configurations, the information is missing and is required for proper
functionality. In cases where this is not possible, the programs will treat the
remote repositories as offline or the local repository as shallow. As a result,
some functionality may not be available. The limitations may include
`test-patch` functioning as though it was `qbt`. In other words, performing a
full build rather than a patch-based build.
* `--git-shallow` may be used to pre-warn that the local checkout is
shallow/other branches are not available.
* `--git-offline` may be used to pre-warn that remote repositories are not
available/pulls will fail.
* `--offline` sets `--git-offline` as well.
* As a result of that work, git repositories that require authentication, are
non-HTTP-based, and various other configurations should be much better
understood and hanlded much more appropriately.
* precommit will now attempt to guess what build tool a repository may be
using. This may be overridden by specifying the build tool with `--build-tool`
set to the appropriate plugin, including `nobuild` to disable build tools
altogether.
* If Apache Yetus is launched in a Docker container under a Jenkins pipeline as
the agent definition, `${HOME}` should now be set to somewhere valid if it
isn't valid. This will enable Apache Maven and other utilities that would
otherwise crash due to broken homes.
Developer Changes
=================
* Personalities setting `${GITHUB_REPO}` information will likely cause problems
with autodetection of Github information. See YETUS-721 for more information.
* Developers that check for `${JENKINS}` should specifically start checking for
`${ROBOTTYPE}=jenkins` for equivalent functionality. But be aware that coding
specifically for Jenkins may be incorrect.
* Environment variable handling for Docker has been given a rewrite with the
introduction of `add_docker_env`. For environment variables, this should be
used instead of directly setting `${DOCKER_EXTRAARGS}`. Environment variables
set via `add_docker_env` will be resolved just prior to Docker run thus
enabling the value to change.
* It is now possible set `${BUILDMODE}` during `locate_patch` resolution. This
change was made due to limitations with some bug system/CI integrations. See
`set_buildmode` for more information.
* `github_breakup_url` can now be used for Github repo URLs and not just pull
requests.
* `gitlab_breakup_url` can now be used for Gitlab repo URLs and not just merge
requests.
* A lot of defaults are now defined much later. This should only impact
plug-ins and overrides that are triggered extremely early in the boot up
process.
