Usage

To compile autobuild:

go build -buildvcs .

Or compile and run directly:

go run -buildvcs . <args-to-autobuild>

Configuration file

The configuration file is named either autobuild.yaml or autobuild.yml. When both are found, the former takes precendence over the latter. It should be place on the same level as the package recipe file (e.g. package.yml or stone.yaml).

Currently it's still very simple, with the specification as follows:

# `true` means skip any package in the current directory and any subdirectories
ignore: false

solver:
  ignore:
    - <regex-of-dependencies-to-ignore>

Note that currently, the regex in ignore has to match the entire package name. For example, the following config file

solver:
  ignore:
    - haskell

would not ignore dependencies such as haskell-cabal-install and haskell-hashable, but if it's haskell.*, then every package that starts with haskell would be ignored.

TPath

TPath (typed path) is a way to specify different kinds of files that provide information on packages. Currently, there are three supported types:

Binary, in the form of bin:<path-to-binary-index>. Example: bin:/var/lib/eopkg/index/Unstable/eopkg-index.xml. Note that this must be an XML index file, not an xz-compressed XML index file (eopkg-index.xml.xz).
Source, in the form of src:<path-to-source-index>. The path should point to a directory containing YPKG source definitions. Usually this path points to the Solus repository. Example: src:$HOME/solus/package.
Remote binary index, in the form of repo:<name>. This will fetch the index file from the url https://packages.getsol.us/<name>/eopkg-index.xml.xz and load it in the same way it would load a binary index. Example: repo:unstable. TODO(GZGavinZhao): add a progress bar to show the fetching progress.

Query

Query the build order for a list of packages. Even though you can pass any tpath to it, generally you are always passing a source tpath because it contains the most information regarding build dependencies.

May fail or output an incorrect order if the dependency graph between the list of packages given has cycles.

autobuild query <tpath> <list-of-packages>

Example:

autobuild query src:../packages rocblas hipblas rocsolver hipsolver rocfft hipfft

Diff

Outputs the changes between two different TPaths.

autobuild diff <old-tpath> <new-tpath>

Example: what packages have I updated locally?

autobuild diff repo:unstable src:../packages

Push

Push all changes to the build server, in the correct build order.

autobuild push <old-tpath> <new-tpath>

May fail or output an incorrect order if the dependency graph between the list of packages given has cycles.

Note: you must already have permissions to push to the build server. By default, it does a dry-run and you can inspect whether it will be pushing the packages that you want to push. After you think everything looks fine, you can run the command with --dry-run=false to actually push to the build server.

TODO(GZGavinZhao): add a yes/no dialogue even if --dry-run=false.

Example: push my ROCm stack

autobuild push repo:unstable src:$HOME/solus/work/rocm-6
