[Buildbot-devel] 2 repositories, 1 buildmaster

Ged,

 

Is your problem schedulers or builders?  Can you run the builds manually
from the buildbot web page?  If so, and your problem is getting them to
run automatically, when exactly do you want builds to be triggered?
Both builds whenever a dev submits anything?  One build when some files
churn the other build when other files churn?  Nightly?

 

Like Matthieu, I have multiple projects running on the same master
driving three different slaves, with no trouble.

Hi,

I use buildbot on two separate projects, one with CVS the other one with
SVN with the same buildmaster, no problem.

As far as I know you must setup one buildmaster per project.
This question already came to the list (e.g.: http://thread.gmane.org/
gmane.comp.python.buildbot.devel/1498/focus=1502) and that's the kind
of problem I ran into when I did my 1st buildbot setup until I
realized that the only way to do it is to have separate buildmasters.

One of the thing that annoys me most is that I frequently fall in 
this scenario: I have a SVN repository where people develop libfoo.
I another SVN repository, some other people develop a program `bar'
that uses `libfoo'.  I another SVN repository, some other people
develop a friendly GUI around the raw CLI program `bar' (name it
`qux').  With BuildBot, you must setup 3 buildmasters.  Ideally, you
want that whenever a dev commits something in libfoo and the build
succeeds, then `bar' be rebuilt with the new libfoo.  Unfortunately, 
there is no way ATM to trigger a build in another buildmaster
(although I guess this should be fairly easy to do since the whole
code required is already there, in the commit hooks.  The only thing
needed is a buildstep that makes it easy to add this at the end of a 
build process).  So what I do ATM is that dependent projects (`bar'
and `qux') are rebuilt frequently with a Periodic scheduler (e.g.
every 5 hours).

Cheers,
