Hello, everyone! This summer I shall attend the Google Summer of Code, adding build service functions to eclipse. The bellow is my project: http://code.google.com/soc/2008/suse/appinfo.html?csaid=DFC9A170A95499CD
Nice to hear! :-)
Now I just want to gather users' expectations to this project. What would you like to see when using Build-Service in Eclipse? Thanks a lot!
Here some use cases that come to my mind:
- Add/Change packages - Edit/Create package Templates - Add/Change projects - Edit/Create project Templates - Add a "New Buildservice Package/Projekt" Workflow - Edit specfiles and debian/* files using eclipse and upload them to the buildservice automatically - could be achieved in using/integrating existing technology, e.g. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/name/eclipse-rpm-editor - monitor build status - download (and maybe even deploy package(s))
More advanced:
- Add a new view similar to the CVS Browser to be able to browse projects/packages on the buildservice and download them with rightclick
[...] I think SVN like is better :)
Btw.: on http://code.google.com/soc/2008/suse/appinfo.html?csaid=DFC9A170A95499CD you wrote, that the eclipse integration would depend on osc. I do not think, that this would be a good approach. An eclipse plugin should work out-of-the-box without installing additional software, IMHO. OK, I see. Maybe I should add functions similar to OSC but not use OSC directly. I think first I should try to use Build-Service API. Anyway I've never used RENT before althouth I know what it is.
For internal purposes I started writing a java client for the buildservice to be able to upload, download and query the buildservice from within ant-tasks, that are integrated into CruiseControl¹.
Maybe we could combine our work and create a java client library for the buildservice. Interesting! Is it hard to do so?
