Last week I got Sakai automatically building on the NMI test facility at Wisconsin. Here is a status page:
\nhttp:\/\/grandcentral.cs.wisc.edu\/pavlo\/index.php?page=results%2Foverview&opt_user=csev<\/a>
\nHere are my scripts in SVN:
\nhttps:\/\/source.sakaiproject.org\/contrib\/csev\/trunk\/nmi\/sakaimvn\/
\nThe submit file is the master control – here is my sample:
\n$ cat sakaiMaven2.submit
\nproject = sakai
\ncomponent = Trunk Build
\ncomponent_version = 1.0.0
\ndescription = Auto-build of Sakai trunk (cron)
\nrun_type = Build
\ninputs = sakaiMaven2.scp, sakaiMaven2.svn, m2-repo.scp
\nremote_task = buildSakai.sh
\nremote_task_args = “sakai\/trunk sakai”
\nplatforms = x86_macos_10.4
\nprereqs_x86_macos_10.4 = java-1.5.0_06
\nnotify = csev@umich.edu
\nI need Java 1.5 – the simplest is to use the mac OS 10.4 systems for my builds. Later I will develop scripts for other operating systems.
\nThe inputs specify what you want on your execution machine and how to get it there. I have three inputs.
\nThe first copies all my shell scripts from the current directory to the destination machine using SCP.
\n[csev@nmi-s003 sakaimvn]$ cat sakaiMaven2.scp
\nmethod = scp
\nscp_file = \/home\/csev\/sakaimvn\/*.sh
\nrecursive = true
\nThe second input checks a particular tag out of SVN of the Sakai source.
\n[csev@nmi-s003 sakaimvn]$ cat sakaiMaven2.svn
\nmethod = svn
\nurl = https:\/\/source.sakaiproject.org\/svn\/sakai\/trunk sakai
\nThe third copies a copy of a populated Maven 2 repository from my home directory on the submitting machine to the executing machine.
\n[csev@nmi-s003 sakaimvn]$ cat m2-repo.scp
\nmethod = scp
\nscp_file = \/home\/csev\/.m2
\nrecursive = true
\nAs the source changes the .m2 repo will become out of date so I have to tar up a full repo from my dev machine from time to time and copy it over.
\nThe script to be run is pretty complex – I will point out a few important steps.
\nIn link-repo.sh<\/a> the key line is
\nln -s `pwd`\/.m2 ~\/.m2
\nThe input directive will insure that the .m2 directory makes it into the execution directory – by soft linking it into home, Maven 2 will find it.
\nIn nmi-bootstrap.sh<\/a> the code is a bit tortuous – probably the clever bit is downloading a copy of Maven 2 and using the local copy.
\nI debugged this script separately on my mac before making it work on the NMI test bed.
\nI instlal Maven 2 each time the script runs – I use:
\ncurl -O http:\/\/mirrors.ibiblio.org\/pub\/mirrors\/apache\/maven\/binaries\/maven-2.0.7-bin.tar.gz
\nThen extract it into my local directory and simply use
\n`pwd`\/maven-2.0.7\/bin\/mvn
\nAs my call to maven 2. This way I install my own pre-requisite and don’t have to depend on anything except for Java.
\nOnce this is done, I put in a crontab to automate this:
\n[csev@nmi-s003 ~]$ crontab -l
\nMAILTO=csev@umich.edu
\n22 04 * * * $HOME\/nightly.sh
\n[csev@nmi-s003 ~]$ cat nightly.sh
\n#!\/bin\/sh
\nPATH=$PATH:\/nmi\/bin:\/usr\/local\/condor\/bin
\ncd sakaimvn
\nnmi_submit sakaiMaven2.submit
\nThanks to Jim Basney and everyone who helped walk me through the process. it took less than a day to get it all working.
\nAlso thanks to the folks at Wisconsin who walked me through the process.<\/p>\n


\nOne of the things I do in by launch script is dump out variables and check the version of Java I have just for my sanity. Here is that part of the script:
\nwhich javac
\njavac -version
\necho
\necho shell vars
\nset
\necho Env vars
\nenv
\nHere is that output:
\nWhich java are we running
\n\/prereq\/java-1.5.0_06\/bin\/java
\nWhere is curl
\n\/usr\/bin\/curl
\nWhat about javac
\n\/usr\/bin\/javac
