Hey Matt, welcome to the OBS project :) On 10.10.2012 13:40, Matthew Drobnak wrote:
I have a project at my job to start implementing OBS as a replacement for our few disparate build systems and servers.
While in general I'm very pleased with the system,
Glad to hear that, hope OBS will make you more productive focusing on the right stuff (instead of build systems).
there are a few things which I need some help with.
Sure, let's roll :)
I am running a 4 server setup for OBS - one main box, 3 workers. I am using the appliance images.
* LDAP Auth Where is the correct place to configure this? I saw some things about it, and attempted to edit a production.rb file for the API, but it seems every so often this was regenerated by something. Try as I might, I could not get it to work, and could not find a way to turn up logging.
Well config/environments/production.rb is the right file to set it up. Maybe you should try again and tell us what exactly isn't working. It also helps a great deal to show us some error messages :)
* Reliance on opensuse.org How can I make my base distributions not dependent on build.opensuse.org? Under normal circumstances this all works fine, but it would make me feel better having everything in-house.
You import them. Have a look at the obs_mirror_project script from the obs-utils package.
* Putting OBS into version control (git) I think I saw something which puts the specs and such into git from OBS? Anyone have that link? I can't find it again.
There was an OBS git backend and a git frontend (code is somewhere on gitorious.org/opensuse). Both are incomplete and no longer maintained as far as we know.
* Documentation There's a lot of documentation, it's just hard to find some things because of the sheer amount. I'm very familiar with this as it's similar on our internal wiki.
Uhm yeah :-/ Cleaning this up is something that is burning on my TODO list. Stay tuned!
If someone can provide hints to the items above, I'd be glad to submit back some detailed docs.
That would be cool. Maybe we can do a guest blog about your setup on openbuildservice.org or something similar. If you're interested let us know.
