[OE-core] [PATCH 4/5] scripts/oe-setup-layers: add a script that restores the layer configuration from a json file
This script can be used directly from poky or oe-core, or can be copied directly
into alayer or any other repository - it is self-suffucient and requires only
python3
and git on the host where it will run. It is also copied by the bitbake-layers
layers-setup plugin together with the json, unless requested otherwise.
1. How to restore the layers from the saved configuration:
a) Clone the bootstrap layer or some other repository to obtain the json config
and the setup script that can use it.
(use 'bitbake-layers create-layer-setup' from the previous commit to create
them)
b) Running with default options:
(note: this will work to update an existing checkout as well)

The script does 'git fetch' which is an incremental operation, and becomes cheap and quick after the initial fetch. Same for the checkout, which is trivial. I'd rather not complicate the code with additional conditions, unless there's some scenario I am not aware of. The script needs to be robust on a bulletproof level. > Adding those checks would enable your script to be added as a pre-build step > in a developer > workflow wrapper script.

This matters a great deal in tightly configuration controlled environments, such as where regulatory oversight is involved. One feedback item I might suggest is to check if the layer is already pulled and to avoid pulling again. Same goes for the commit hash - no reason to checkout the hash if HEAD is already pointing at it. Adding those checks would enable your script to be added as a pre-build step in a developer workflow wrapper script. Our environment takes a different approach to repository pinning, but if setup-layers had those checks, we could probably switch to this approach. ..Ch:W.. -- *"Perfection must be reached by degrees; she requires the slow hand of time." - Voltaire* -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
