Travis CI support for Yast
an invention by lslezak
Updated over 5 years ago. 1 hackers ♥️.

Description

Travis provides nice integration with GitHub, it can automatically run tests for every commit or every pull request.

It is already used in e.g. registration module, see the build result.

Unfortunately the current support is quite limited, the problem is that Yast packages are not available at Travis builders. The workaround is to mock used Yast calls (that leads to overmocking) and reimplementing some Yast core functions. Another solution is to test only the functionality which does not rely on Yast much, but that means the code coverage will be rather small...

Provide Yast packages for Ubuntu

Travis allows to install additional packages (see the doc), but the builders are running Ubuntu and we do not have Yast packages for Ubuntu...

The solution is to repackage Yast packages to deb packages for Ubuntu in YaST:Head:Travis OBS project.

Notes

  1. We do not need to package all Yast modules, just the base packages like yast2-core, yast2, yast2-ruby-bindings and the dependent packages, the leaf packages do not need to packaged.

  2. It's really about repackaging, the Yast packages will very likely not work in Ubuntu out of box (because of different config files, package names, file locations, services, different system defaults, different package management...). But that should not matter as the system access will be stubbed/mocked in the tests anyway, for running tests the real functionality is not needed, we just need that the files can compiled and loaded.

Current Status

I have already started the project at the CSM department workshop last month. What has been done:

  1. YaST:Head:Travis OBS project set up

  2. Some modules already have .travis.yml file added and Travis builds are enabled in Travis branch

  3. There is the overview of already converted modules is available

The Goal

  1. Enable Travis builds for all currently maintained Yast packages (in Git master branch)
  2. As a side effect we could attract some Debian/Ubuntu developers to help us with the Yast port and this could help us to broaden the community around Yast.

The Future

  1. The support could be enhanced to other Git branches, for example SLE12-GA branch could be used for testing SLE12 maintenace updates.
  2. The tests run at Travis can be enhanced to report test code coverage using coveralls

      The Result

      I have managed to enable Travis support to all Yast modules, which I consider a big success!

      See the details in this document.

      This should improve testing automation for all Yast modules and we should be more confident when doing changes in Yast as basically every commit to Git master will be automatically tested.

    Update Haskell ecosystem in Tumbleweed to GHC-9.10.x by psimons

    Description

    We are currently at GHC-9.8.x, which a bit old. So I'd like to take a shot at the latest version of the compiler, GHC-9.10.x. This is gonna be interesting because the new version requires major updates to all kinds of libraries and base packages, which typically means patching lots of packages to make them build again.

    Goals

    Have working builds of GHC-9.10.x and the required Haskell packages in 'devel:languages:haskell` so that we can compile:

    • git-annex
    • pandoc
    • xmonad
    • cabal-install

    Framework laptop integration by nkrapp

    Project Description

    Although openSUSE does run on the Framework laptops out-of-the-box, there is still room to improve the experience. The ultimate goal is to get openSUSE on the list of community supported distros

    Goal for this Hackweek

    The goal this year is to at least package all of the soft- and firmware for accessories like the embedded controller, Framework 16 inputmodule and other tools. I already made some progress by packaging the inputmodule control software, but the firmware is still missing

    Resources

    As I only have a Framework laptop 16 and not a 13 I'm looking for people with hardware that can help me test

    Progress:

    Update 1:

    The project lives under my home for now until I can get an independent project on OBS: Framework Laptop project

    Also, the first package is already done, it's the cli for the led-matrix spacer module on the Framework Laptop 16. I am also testing this myself, but any feedback or questions are welcome.

    You can test the package on the Framework 16 by adding this repo and installing the package inputmodule-control

    Update 2:

    I finished packaging the python cli/gui for the inputmodule. It is using a bit of a hack because one of the dependencies (PySimpleGUI) recently switched to a noncommercial license so I cannot ship it. But now you can actually play the games on the led-matrix (the rust package doesn't include controls for the games). I'm also working on the Framework system tools now, which should be more interesting for Framework 13 users.

    You can test the package on the Framework 16 by installing python311-framework16_inputmodule and then running "ledmatrixctl" from the command line.

    Update 3:

    I packaged the framework_tool, a general application for interacting with the system. You can find it some detailed information what it can do here. On my system everything related to the embedded controller functionality doesn't work though, so some help testing and debugging would be appreciated.

    Update 4:

    Today I finished the qmk interface, which gives you a cli (and gui) to configure your Framework 16 keyboard. Sadly the Python gui is broken upstream, but I added the qmk_hid package with the cli and from my testing it works well.

    Final Update:

    All the interesting programs are now done, I decided to exclude the firmware for now since upstream also recommends using fwupd to update it. I will hack on more things related to the Framework Laptops in the future so if there are any ideas to improve the experience (or any bugs to report) feel free to message me about it.

    As a final summary/help for everyone using a Framework Laptop who wants to use this software:

    The source code for all packages can be found in repositories in the Framework organization on Github

    All software can be installed from this repo (Tumbleweed)

    The available packages are:

    • framework-inputmodule-control (FW16) - play with the inputmodules on your Framework 16 (b1-display, led-matrix, c1-minimal)

    • python-framework16_inputmodule (FW16) - same as inputmodule-control but is needed if you want to play and crontrol the built-in games in the led-matrix (call with ledmatrixctl or ledmatrixgui)

    • framework_tool (FW13 and FW 16) - use to see and configure general things on your framework system. Commands using the embedded controller might not work, it looks like there are some problems with the kernel module used by the EC. Fixing this is out of scope for this hackweek but I am working on it

    • qmk_hid (FW16) - a cli to configure the FW16 qmk keyboard. Sadly the gui for this is broken upstream so only the cli is usable for now

    Learn about OSB and contribute to `kustomize` and `k9s` packages to add ARM arch by dpock

    Description

    There are already k9s and kustomize packages that exist for openSUSE today. These could be used as the source for these binaries in our rancher projects. By using them we would benefit from CVE fixes included in our distribution of the packages not in cluded upstream. However they are not providing arm package builds which are required.

    Goals

    • [ ] Update the kustomize package in OBS to use the newest version and send change request

    Goals

    • Implement more routes/resources
    • Implement a test suite against the actual OBS implementation
    • Bonus: Create an osc like cli in Rust using the library

    Fix RSpec tests in order to replace the ruby-ldap rubygem in OBS by enavarro_suse

    Description

    "LDAP mode is not official supported by OBS!". See: config/options.yml.example#L100-L102

    However, there is an RSpec file which tests LDAP mode in OBS. These tests use the ruby-ldap rubygem, mocking the results returned by a LDAP server.

    The ruby-ldap rubygem seems no longer maintaned, and also prevents from updating to a more recent Ruby version. A good alternative is to replace it with the net-ldap rubygem.

    Before replacing the ruby-ldap rubygem, we should modify the tests so the don't mock the responses of a LDAP server. Instead, we should modify the tests and run them against a real LDAP server.

    Goals

    Goals of this project:

    • Modify the RSpec tests and run them against a real LDAP server
    • Replace the net-ldap rubygem with the ruby-ldap rubygem

    Achieving the above mentioned goals will:

    • Permit upgrading OBS from Ruby 3.1 to Ruby 3.2
    • Make a step towards officially supporting LDAP in OBS.

    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.
