[Buildbot-devel] Buildbot configuration for multiple builders

[Byrne, David]

The problem is that I'm not wanting to trigger the build off of the
build of the distributables, but off of the checkin of the
distributables.  Our development team checks in source that gets
automatically built into distributables for QA.  The QA team checks out
these distributables and when they think that they are ok for user
testing, they check in the distributables.  At that time, I would like
the distributables to get automatically checked out to UAT.  I was
hoping to use buildbot to do this so that we had one place to see the
process flow working.  If I'm not mistaken, with the Dependent
scheduler, the checkout of the distributables would happen immediately
after they were built.

 

Thanks,

David Byrne

Have you tried a Dependent

scheduler?

I've been using buildbot successfully for the last few months now and
I'm now having a little difficulty in configuring it to have new
responsibilities.  I have an subversion repository that holds both our
source code and our distributables (binaries, configuration files, etc).
We use buildbot for only one of our projects currently (though we hope
to use it more in the future).  What it currently does now is build our
distributables whenever source code is checked in.  What I would like it
to do is to also migrate distributables automatically to our test server
when the distributables are checked in.  The problem is that I'm not
sure how to set it up so that the same repository can trigger different
builders to fire.  We have a builder on our development box to build the
distributables and a builder on the test box to retrieve the
distributables.  I can't find an easy way to set this up.  Am I missing
something?  Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

David Byrne
