[Buildbot-devel] Sharing common configurations for different buildfarms

[Benoit Sigoure]

Hello people

I have quite a lot of buildfarms running with buildbot and the configuration is
very redundant. I'd like to share it (all the buildsteps) among different
buildfarms, how would you advice me to do this? I'm not very good in Python so
if you could provide me with an example it'd be great. Can I simply put a
Python file somewhere that defines a class that creates the buildsteps and
import it from the master.cfg's? Where would you advise me to put this Python
file?

Now say that I have a complete BuildFactory (with all the steps) how can I
(deep)copy it and change only a given step (say, the configure step) ?

Thanks
Cheers,
