Use systemd Service Templates to manage OBS workers
an invention by enavarro_suse
Updated almost 2 years ago. 1 hackers ♥️. 2 followers.

Project Description

Currently, the systemd script that manages OBS workers (obsworker.service) calls a script (obsworker) that launches workers in windows of a screen session.

Goal for this Hackweek

Migrate the OBS workers scripts from using the screen window manager to use systemd Service Templates instead.

    Explore the integration between OBS and GitHub by pdostal

    Project Description

    The goals:

    1) When GitHub pull request is created or modified the OBS project will be forked and the build results reported back to GitHub. 2) When new version of the GitHub project will be published the OBS will redownload the source and rebuild the project.

    Goal for this Hackweek

    Do as much as possible, blog about it and maybe use it another existing project.

    obs-service-vendor_node_modules by cdimonaco

    Description

    When building a javascript package for obs, one option is to use https://github.com/openSUSE/obs-service-node_modules as source service to get the project npm dependencies available for package bulding.

    obs-service-vendornodemodules aims to be a source service that vendors npm dependencies, installing them with npm install (optionally only production ones) and then creating a tar package of the installed dependencies.

    The tar will be used as source in the package building definitions.

    Goals

    • Create an obs service package that vendors the npm dependencies as tar archive.
    • Maybe add some macros to unpack the vendor package in the specfiles

    Automation of ABI compatibility checks by ateixeira

    Description

    ABI compatibility checks could be further automated by using the OBS API to download built RPMs and using existing tools to analyze ABI compatibility between the libraries contained in those packages. This project aims to explore these possibilities and figure out a way to make ABI checks as painless and fast as possible for package maintainers.

    Research openqa-trigger-from-obs and openqa-trigger-from-ibs-plugin by qwang

    Description

    openqa-trigger-from-obs project is a framework that OSD is using it to automatically sync the defined images and repositories from OBS/IBS to its assets for testing. This framework very likely will be used for the synchronize to each location's openqa include openqa.qa2.suse.asia Beijing local procy scc scc-proxy.suse.asia(although it's not a MUST to our testing) it's now rewriting requests to openqa.qa2.suse.asia instead of openqa.suse.de, the assets/repo should be consistent the format Beijing local openQA is maintaining an own script but still need many manually activities when new build comes, and not consistent to OSD, that will request many test code change due to CC network change

    Goals

    Research this framework in case it will be re-used for Beijing local openQA, and will need to be setup and maintained by ourselves

    Explore simple and distro indipendent declarative Linux starting on Tumbleweed or Arch Linux by janvhs

    Description

    Inspired by mkosi the idea is to experiment with a declarative approach of defining Linux systems. A lot of tools already make it possible to manage the systems infrastructure by using description files, rather than manual invocation. An example for this are systemd presets for managing enabled services or the /etc/fstab file for describing how partitions should be mounted.

    If we would take inspiration from openSUSE MicroOS and their handling of the /etc/ directory, we could theoretically use systemd-sysupdate to swap out the /usr/ partition and create an A/B boot scheme, where the /usr/ partition is always freshly built according to a central system description. In the best case it would be possible to still utilise snapshots, but an A/B root scheme would be sufficient for the beginning. This way you could get the benefit of NixOS's declarative system definition, but still use the distros package repositories and don't have to deal with the overhead of Flakes or the Nix language.

    Goals

    • A simple and understandable system
    • Check fitness of mkosi or write a simple extensible image builder tool for it
    • Create a declarative system specification
    • Create a system with swappable /usr/ partition
    • Create an A/B root scheme
    • Swap to the new system without reboot (kexec?)
