Re: [perl6]Tinderbox clients on Mac OS X?
I am familiar with both being an OS X user and the tinderbox client author and would be happy to help in any way needed.

Anyone familiar with setting up Tinderbox under OS X, or Tinderbox clients in general, want to pitch in a bit and help me get the thing set up?

Perl6 Tinderbox
Because the need for a tinderbox testing platform is fairly urgent right now for perl6, I am releasing my (place your favorite adjective in the blank here) tinderbox client for perl6 ahead of the near-rewrite that I am working on to use Devel::Tinderbox::Reporter (which was just written) and Test::Smoke (which wouldn't help perl6 all that much anyway. First of all, what is really needed urgently is clients, both windows and unix os's. Also, those on rare os's: please please please be a client. You can run the tinderbox client software using a low priority if you wish, though it will not clbr the build dir so no rebuilding will occur if nothing has changed. To get the client scripts, grab Z/ZL/ZLIPTON/Devel-Tinderclient-1.1.tar.gz from CPAN. At the moment (pending the rewrite) it does not follow the standard module installation format, so simply untargzip the archive. Take a quick peek at the README and then run: cp sample_config/Tinderconfig.cvs.pm Tinderconfig.pm Then edit Tinderconfig.pm to reflect your configuration. Just run nohup tinderbox.pl to start the client from there. Windows users will have to edit Tindermail.pm to reflect your mail setup. In terms of dev stuff, you can go to http://tinderbox.perl.org/cgi-bin/tinderbox/showbuilds.cgi?tree=perl6 (soon to be just tinderbox.perl.org) and see the build status (notice how empty it is now?) I'll have some more details there soon, but green means all ok, orange means tests failed, red means compile failed, and yellow means building. Let me know if you have any questions. Zach

Re: [perl6]Re: Perl6 Tinderbox
Wow, great! I'm not sure about the nohup issue, but I'm looking into it. We really could use some windows clients and some rare platforms (vms? Etc) Any help you can give would be great. I'll put out a call for clients on perl-qa as well.

Re: [perl6]Re: Perl6 Tinderbox
I'll look into bonsai, that will take some work on the cvs server end and some more effort all the way around, it needs to be done though. Thanks for the url fixes. In terms of the renaming, I'll need to hack some stuff in the scripts so you can still use it the way it was, I'll be at the Apple Store opening tomorrow in Palo Alto, but I'll get to it as soon as possible.
