Is there a way to store the output of various commands ie "hg log" "hg parents" in a variable when using service files like tar_scm or set_version
Writing/editing the source service scripts isn't particularly hard - but it requires you have root access on the OBS server. (Not a problem if you run your own OBS service like I do, but it's much more difficult if you're using build.opensuse.org). If you do have root access, you can modify (or better copy & modify) tar_scm so that it stores the output of your scm output ('hg log', etc.) in a file located in ${MYOUTDIR} - then the file becomes "known" to OBS as _service:tar_scm:somefile.txt. Of course, this assumes you have root access to the obs server. If nothting else, it may be instructive to look at the tar_scm source code (it's just a shell script) to understand how it works. I know with git, there is an auto versioning code path that puts the git commit sha1 in the tarball's version string. I imagine hg has something similar. -- Troy Telford -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
