There are two things that need to be done. The first, we need the reactive framework to be ported to powershell - that way we can have charms written in powershell and compiled as such. I know the cloud base folks poked at that a bit in Gent during the Summit but I haven't heard much from there. T

BTW, I don't believe this is true. I didn't work on series in metadata, but I skimmed the code and didn't see anything doing checks for OS consistency across the stated series. I just tried it with a charm labeled as trusty & win10 in the metadata.yaml and it worked fine deploying to trusty. On

At least... according to the core code, but it occurs to me I may well be mistaken about what's allowed by the charm authoring tools and/or charmstore. On Mon, Apr 4, 2016 at 10:16 AM Nate Finch wrote: > BTW, I don't believe this is true. I didn't work on series in metadata, > but I skimmed the

>From what I've read, there's no server-side story to Ubuntu on Windows. It's purely desktop, and in fact, only installs on desktop versions of Windows 10. That could help with tooling for charm authors, but obviously the charm code itself still needs to run on vanilla Windows. The main tricky pa

I know that Gabriel and some of the CloudBase folks seemed interested in layers and possibly some tooling with powershell. I'm not sure how far that went but I thought they were experimenting during the charmer's summit. That would help with a charm build on windows, but not for some common code be

Charm layers & Windows

2016-04-04 Thread Andrew Wilkins
Hi, I would like to write a charm that should be mostly identical on Windows and Linux, so I think it would make sense to have common code in the form of a layer. Is anyone working on getting "charm build", layers, and friends to work with Windows workloads? If not, I may look into it myself. Ch
