DSpace Continuous Integration
Definition of Continuous Integration (CI): Martin Fowler
Currently DuraSpace uses Bamboo, a CI product from Atlassian, makers of Jira and Confluence.
How it is done
Whenever a new checkin occurs to DSpace SVN, DuraSpace's Bamboo will check out the project and attempt to build it, logging the success or failure of the build. If the build succeeds, the build artifacts (jar files, war files) will be saved for a period of time.
When a build fails, an email is automatically sent to the 'dspace-changelog' listserv to notify the developers & committers. Once the problem is fixed, a 'build successful' email will be sent to the same listserv.
The build reports are available on the web as a traditional website or as RSS feeds:
DSpace 1.x
- Browse all DSpace 1.x builds
- Trunk build reports
- DSpace Services build reports
- DSpace Discover build reports
DSpace 2
- Currently not configured in DuraSpace Bamboo.
Configuration
DSpace 1.x
- Bamboo polls several locations in DSpace SVN
- Maven 2.2.1 is used to build the projects
- The Maven command used is
clean test -Paddons
- Java 1.6 is used
- Build reports send emails to 'dspace-changelog' listserv on each failure, and on the first successful build after a failure.
