Hi Ian,

 

Thanks for your quick response. 

 

"warnOnFailure" seems to be the closest to my usecase. But still it makes
the overall build as warnings. So it seems there is no option in buildbot to
make the overall build as "SUCCESS" when one of the step fails and others
pass.

 

Hi list,  any pointers to my query #2 ??

number/string instead of the default number.. help again???

 

Does it need to modify the buildbot source or is there a way out
externally??

 

 

Thanks,

Anantvijay

For #1, you can instantiate a build step with a number of handy parameters,
including:

haltOnFailure

if True, a FAILURE of this build step will cause the build to halt
immediately. Steps with alwaysRun=True are still run. Generally speaking,
haltOnFailure implies flunkOnFailure (the default for most BuildSteps). In
some cases, particularly series of tests, it makes sense to haltOnFailure if
something fails early on but not flunkOnFailure. This can be achieved with
haltOnFailure=True, flunkOnFailure=False. 

flunkOnWarnings

when True, a WARNINGS or FAILURE of this build step will mark the overall
build as FAILURE. The remaining steps will still be executed. 

flunkOnFailure

when True, a FAILURE of this build step will mark the overall build as a
FAILURE. The remaining steps will still be executed. 

warnOnWarnings

when True, a WARNINGS or FAILURE of this build step will mark the overall
build as having WARNINGS. The remaining steps will still be executed. 

warnOnFailure

when True, a FAILURE of this build step will mark the overall build as
having WARNINGS. The remaining steps will still be executed. 

Those should allow you to have pretty fine-grained control over your
succes/failure based on individual step results.

Ian

Hi list,

 

I'm new to buildbot. My setup is working fine. I've 2 queries.

 

1. The build runs in 5 steps. Usually the step number 4 fails and all
remaining steps passes. Since one of the step is failing, the overall build
result is shown as "FAILURE". But i want the buildbot to state the build as
SUCCESS irrespective of the result of the step number 4. I mean to say that
even if the step:4 fails and other steps pass, the overall result should
pass.

how do i achieve this?

 

2. I want to change couple of things on the waterfall results display page.

# By default the logs for each step are named as "stdio". How do i change it
to say "xyz"

# Also i dont want the log for a particular step. So the step will only
display the step description and it should not show the stdio link. Help??

# By default, a build number is given buildbot. I want a custom
number/string instead of the default number.. help again???

 

 

Thanks in advance,

Anantvijay
