[yast-devel] Overcommit - automatic checks via Git hooks
by Ladislav Slezak 21 Dec '22

21 Dec '22

Hi, I found a quite interesting tool called Overcommit [1]. It provides an easy way for setting up Git commit hooks and provides some basic checking plugins. The nice feature of the Git commit hooks is that you can run some checks automatically and early in the development. For example with the commit hooks you can run Rubocop check automatically whenever a commit is created. And if the check fails the commit is not created. I can see "make Rubocop happy" commits quite often (happens to me as well), with Overcommit you can easily avoid that. I have tried several Overcommit checks: - Rubocop - runs Rubocop at "commit" - Rspec - runs the tests before "push" - Branch blacklist - can forbid direct commits to configured branches, e.g. "master" (forces using pull requests, avoids commits to master my mistake) - Commit message spellcheck - warns when there is a possible typo Check my blog post [2] for the details, esp. watch the recorded screencast where I wanted to show some mistakes which it can catch. The tool looks promising, I'll try using it for some time. If you want to try it as well check the blog post for the installation steps. Enjoy!

[yast-devel] YaST Tips&Tricks
by Ladislav Slezak 25 Jan '22

25 Jan '22

Hi all, some time ago we discussed where and how we should share "Tips&Tricks" for YaST users and developers. IIRC there was no clear conclusion so I decided to start a wiki [1] to collect all our tricks we know or use. For now it's just a place for dumping your ideas, links, short howtos, etc... When we collect enough data we can probably split it to several categories or move it somewhere else. We just need the data first. I have added there some my tricks from my personal "knowledgebase" file. If you have better tricks or find something wrong simply change it, it's a wiki ;-) Ladislav [1] https://github.com/yast/yast.github.io/wiki/YaST-Tips-and-Tricks -- Ladislav Slezák YaST Developer SUSE LINUX, s.r.o.

[yast-devel] Enable Travis Auto Cancellation Feature?
by Ladislav Slezak 25 Sep '17

25 Sep '17

Hi, Travis recently enabled a new auto cancellation feature. If you commit a new change Travis can automatically cancel the old builds in the queue. That means you should get the results for the latest change faster. See more details at the Travis blog [1]. To me it looks like a nice feature. The only drawback is that if you really use the strict TDD approach (write a failing test first then create a fix, like I did here [2]) then you would have to wait a bit between pushing the test and the fix. At least until the first build starts. But that is usually not the case is our workflow so it should not be an issue and we could use this feature by default. So any reason why NOT using the auto cancellation feature? Otherwise I'd enable it globally for all Travis jobs...

[yast-devel] Travis Update: Ubuntu 12.04 EOL
by Ladislav Slezak 25 Apr '17

25 Apr '17

Hi all, Travis runs Ubuntu 12.04 in some jobs but Canonical is ending the official support on April 28th (i.e. this Friday). Some notes: - Travis builds will still use the 12.04 version even after the EOL date. - Upgrade to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is planned at Q3 (probably at July) (ugh? I'd expect upgrade to 16.04 LTS to avoid the same situation soon...) See more details at https://blog.travis-ci.com/2017-04-17-precise-EOL How this will affect us? - As we switched to Docker at Travis and run the builds inside an openSUSE Tumbleweed container this should not affect us at all in the "master" branch. Moreover it seems that for the "master" branch Travis already uses the 14.04 version. (I have checked few packages and all were running in 14.04.) - However, the problem can be expected with the SLE-12-SP2 branch and older as these still run in 12.04. That means we will probably need to switch to Docker also in the older branches, at least in SP2 + CASP, SP1 would be nice as well I guess. (An alternative approach could be building the packages in OBS for the 14.04 version but that might be tricky so I'd prefer the Docker solution.) I have created a Trello card to track it: https://trello.com/c/V0OaC4DT -- Ladislav Slezák YaST Developer SUSE LINUX, s.r.o.

[yast-devel] Hint: time-stamping output and profiling
by Ladislav Slezak 25 Apr '17

JFYI: I have publilshed a short blog post about using the `ts` tool for time-stamping program output. I used it for profiling an rspec test but it can be helpful in many other situations. https://blog.ladslezak.cz/2017/04/24/time-stamping-stdout-and-profiling/ -- Ladislav Slezák YaST Developer SUSE LINUX, s.r.o.
