# `.ci`
|
|
|
|
This directory contains scripts for Continuous Integration platforms. Currently
|
|
GitHub Actions, but ideally they will also run on any Debian-like machine.
|
|
|
|
The scripts are usually split into `_install` and `_test` steps. The `_install`
|
|
step will damage your machine, the `_test` step will just run the tests the way
|
|
CI runs them.
|
|
|
|
There is a common library, `ci_lib.py`, which just centralized a bunch of
|
|
random macros and also environment parsing.
|
|
|
|
Some of the scripts allow you to pass extra flags through to the component
|
|
under test, e.g. `../../.ci/ansible_tests.py -vvv` will run with verbose.
|
|
|
|
Hack these scripts until your heart is content. There is no pride to be found
|
|
here, just necessity.

### `ci_lib.run_batches()`
|
|
|
|
There are some weird looking functions to extract more paralellism from the
|
|
build. The above function takes lists of strings, arranging for the strings in
|
|
each list to run in order, but for the lists to run in parallel. That's great
|
|
for doing `setup.py install` while pulling a Docker container, for example.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Environment Variables
|
|
|
|
* `DISTRO`: the `mitogen_` tests need a target Docker container distro. This
|
|
name comes from the Docker Hub `mitogen` user, i.e. `mitogen/$DISTRO-test`
|
|
* `DISTROS`: the `ansible_` tests can run against multiple targets
|
|
simultaneously, which speeds things up. This is a space-separated list of
|
|
DISTRO names, but additionally, supports:
|
|
* `debian-py3`: when generating Ansible inventory file, set
|
|
`ansible_python_interpreter` to `python3`, i.e. run a test where the
|
|
target interpreter is Python 3.
|
|
* `debian*16`: generate 16 Docker containers running Debian. Also works
|
|
with -py3.
