Hi everyone, I have prepared the chroots testing suite for you. To make it all work you need about 100GB free HDD space.
Here's how to use it: # by default it is in directory /home/extra_nobackup/distros # you can change this by editing file start_chroot_IN_DIR.sh mkdir -p /home/extra_nobackup/distros cd /home/extra_nobackup/distros # I will try to keep this sevver online, but unfortunately cannot guarentee this # at least this month it should stay online. wget http://wilis.pg.gda.pl:55555/tmp/yadeChroots1.tar.bz2 # make sure your downloaded file is OK: md5sum yadeChroots1.tar.bz2 # e918acc8e2e099ff1ce6531dc2675fe5 yadeChroots1.tar.bz2 tar -xvjf ./yadeChroots1.tar.bz2 # You can safely copy ./yadeChroots1 to have multiple independent chroot sets, # but do this when chroot is not running. # move the start script into /root/bin mkdir /root/bin mv ./yadeChroots1/start_chroot_IN_DIR.sh /root/bin # use the custom ~/.screenrc config. If you have your own screen config already, # then don't do this step. It is to enable F11/F12 keys to change chroots. mv ./yadeChroots1/.screenrc /root # install necessary local packages. # BTW, I wonder if this can work on Mac-OSX with brew install chroot ?? apt-get install screen zsh # Now you can start chroot with command: /root/bin/start_chroot_IN_DIR.sh yadeChroots1 p3 zsh # Now inside chroots you can test yade ~/bin/test-branch.sh upstream master NODOC # Press F11, F12 to switch between chroots # then you can exit the chroots by pressing Ctrl-d # After you exit, use this command to check if you have other chroots # running: cat /etc/mtab I made a demo video on ubuntu 16.04 https://youtu.be/sZ4zDj1mFdc in case if you have any problems. The text file written during the video is in the attachment. I hope this will speed up yade testing for all of you :) best regards Janek Kozicki
# OK, I installed a fresh 16.04 in virtualbox to test if this chroot works. First download it to this dir: mkdir -p /home/extra_nobackup/distros ; cd /home/extra_nobackup/distros wget http://wilis.pg.gda.pl:55555/tmp/yadeChroots1.tar.bz2 md5sum yadeChroots1.tar.bz2 # e918acc8e2e099ff1ce6531dc2675fe5 yadeChroots1.tar.bz2 tar -xvjf ./yadeChroots1.tar.bz2 # unpacking 40GB is going to take some time. Let's skip recording video of unpacking :) mkdir /root/bin ; mv ./yadeChroots1/start_chroot_IN_DIR.sh /root/bin ; mv ./yadeChroots1/.screenrc /root apt-get install screen zsh # is that all? Let's see if this works. /root/bin/start_chroot_IN_DIR.sh yadeChroots1 p3 zsh # started! F11, F12 to change tabs. # ONLY ONCE, to clone first: mkdir -p /home/ytest/yade ; cd /home/ytest/yade ; git clone https://gitlab.com/yade-dev/trunk.git ; cd trunk ; git remote rename origin upstream # Then start testing: ~/bin/test-branch.sh upstream master NODOC # heh, compilation will take some time, but let's do this. I will stop recording until they all compile. # Ouch, I see that F11 isn't working to move to left tab. Try to change this in options. # Future compilation will be much faster, because these chroots are configured with ccache # I also noticed that opensuse by default asks to confirm the `git log` nevermind. It is still compiling.... # Now the script continues, will --test first, then --check, then build documentation unless there was NODOC argument # hm. I never seen this checkMPI.py error before. Perhaps this chroot had a mistake in preparing it. # Tried to make dir /home/ytest/.ipython ; ok, it worked the second time. So now we can use the script # And use ccached compile. ~/bin/test-branch.sh upstream master NODOC # OK, so it all works. We see the result in here. DOC -1 means it was skipped. We can run tests again with commands # printed at the end: ~/yade/install/bin/yade-ci --test ~/yade/install/bin/yade-ci --check # also, in most of the chroots we will have working graphics. First need to make sure the DISPLAY number # if the number is the same, we need to run command: 'xhost +local:' on the host. # And now graphics will work! # hmm.. not always :( In some chroots it was working. Let me check. xterm works at least. # right, it's not working in 16.04, stretch and opensuse. But should work in others, let's try 18.04 # Nice, all test and check worked. now let's try graphics. # OK it all works. Now try again - logout from chroot and start it again. # Use this command to check if you have other chroots running: cat /etc/mtab # now start it again as root, to install maybe something. /root/bin/start_chroot_IN_DIR.sh yadeChroots1 p3 root # OK, nothing to install, go back to regular user. /root/bin/start_chroot_IN_DIR.sh yadeChroots1 p3 zsh # remember about the 'xhost +local:' on the host. for graphics. # # OK, it works, ready to announce on yade-dev :) # End of message.
