[yast-devel] Generic / Repo-specific READMEs at GitHub
by Lukas Ocilka 23 Feb '16

23 Feb '16

Hi, When Christopher was in Prague, a few of us had a brainstorming about the need of having devel-documentation placed directly in a Yast/libstorage/linuxrc repository. There are no doubts that it's one of the most important parts of projects hosted at GitHub. All their howtos mention "create README[.md]" as the very first step. In fact, we'll have new hires in the team and in such situations, good documentation is one of the most important parts. Good documentation goes from very high level to lower and lower level. We have already summarized that in Yast Team Challenges, but the summary doesn't belong to this document as it's too detailed. That's why I'm putting it here as a WIP item and deleting it from that document: --- cut --- The README should at least describe the steps needed for maintenance (for a person without expert knowledge in the area) including: * What is the project good for - what does it actually do (and how), what it cannot do (unsupported scenarios), limitations * Links to the documentation, high level and low level descriptions (e.g. RFC, wikipedia articles, man pages, project documentation, openSUSE wiki), terminology * How to fetch the source code (if something outside Git is needed it should be mentioned) * What prerequisites are needed to build the sources (external libraries, gems, scripts, …) * How to build the sources (make/rake commands…) * How to setup a testing environment (e.g. iSCSI target for iSCSI client) * How to run the code to test a change (esp. needed for non trivial projects like linuxrc) * How to run automated tests * How to build a package for submission * How to submit the package (if it needs some manual steps) * Troubleshooting (how to solve typical problems) The README should be reasonably short, if some section is too long it should be moved to a separate document (or to GitHub wiki) and linked. --- cut --- The project consists of - Taking a decision where to go - How to get there - Implementing this important documentation Those two who, according to my knowledge, were working on this were Ladislav and Christopher, but there were not the only ones and a pilot project for READMEs has been done a few months ago by Martin. It's still not finished, but moving forward.

[yast-devel] Pkg.ResolvableProperties() and "version"
by Ladislav Slezak 31 Mar '15

31 Mar '15

Hi all, I found out that the mismatch between the product version from SCC (e.g. "12") and from libzypp ("12-0") was actually caused by pkg-bindings which return zypp::Edition string at Pkg.ResolvableProperties() "version" key. The libzypp Edition has format [epoch:]version[-release], that means if you want to have a plain version (without epoch and release number) you have to parse that string. To make it easier I added "version_epoch", "version_version" and "version_release" keys which contain the parts of the Edition. The current "version" is kept unchanged to not break the existing code. The new keys have been added in yast2-pkg-bindings-3.1.23 (https://github.com/yast/yast-pkg-bindings/pull/42). Enjoy ;-) -- Ladislav Slezák Appliance department / YaST Developer Lihovarská 1060/12 190 00 Prague 9 / Czech Republic tel: +420 284 028 960 lslezak(a)suse.com SUSE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner(a)opensuse.org

It is more tricky for our side, because we currently see two solutions. First one is simplier, but can affect performance, so we need to do performance testing if we can use it. The second one is more effective and actually can speed up a bit yast ( also needs measurement how much ), but it breaks API and ABI, so it is against plan to have same base packages code in SLE-12 and opensuse to have easier maintenance and probably result in ifdefs that keep backward compatibility, which is not nice in long term. So it will need some time from our side. If there is volunteer to do performance testing with new yast2-core, it will help speed up things. Josef
