Just in time as christmas present we release
openSUSE Build Service 1.7 Beta 1
I have build aplliances for the 1.7beta1 with SUSE Studio: http://www.digitalflow.de/index.php?seite=blog&postid=32 They are available in different versions for server, worker and a complete one including a desktop and browser. Greetings
For us developers this mean we shall not create large changes anymore until version 1.7 got released. Instead we shall complete the new APIs and fix them because they need to stay stable after 1.7
The current exceptions for new feature or api changes have been noted so far:
* Defining attributes will not be done in project meta data in final release, but via own attribute controller.
* 1.7 may offer additional informations about the scheduling state of a repository.
Please check first with us, if you plan to add another feature or make larger changes.
The main features as documented in our road map are:
* Fast scheduler using SAT solver now. * Clean Product builds * Attribute system - Allows to define global keys which can be set for projects, source packages and each binary package. - fast lookup and browse interface (Complete except for the attribute definition api) * New request types - delete request - change devel information request - automatic cleanup options on submit request - review mechanism for requests * Lookup for build dependencies - "osc dependson" and "osc whatdependson" are telling the dependency states between the packages according to calculations of the scheduler * SLP lookup support in backend runlevel scripts for automatic setup.
New features, which are still declared as experimental and incomplete: * Source services. The core functionality is ready but we lack a number of services and practical experiences still. * patchinfo support is only good enough to submit informations. The server is not creating updates via it yet.
Our roadmap is maintained here: http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Roadmap
My hope is that we get the 1.7 final release out in January or February next year.
Packages can get found in the openSUSE:Tools:Unstable project:
http://software.opensuse.org/search?baseproject=openSUSE:Tools:Unstable&q=obs
Due to the lack of a final place for tar balls (due to our move away from forge) we do not release a tar ball this time. Please use either the one from our packages or get the source via git:
http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Run_from_git
The final release will also get released as Add-On product and appliance (Live image). This means OBS products built by OBS ;)
