All,
After looking through the autobuilder code, I don't see anywhere in which
PREMIRRORS can be set and used. I see in CreateAutoConf.py that PREMIRRORS is
always set to "". I don't think it'd be that difficult to add PREMIRRORS as a
CreateAutoConf parameter for the buildsets. I can work on the change and
submit the patch. But before I start I have a few questions:
1. I plan on implementing the PREMIRRORS parameter as an array, similar to
'layerdirs' for CreateBBLayersConf. For example:
{'CreateAutoConf' : {'PREMIRRORS' : ['git://.*/.*
http://our/local/mirror/path/mirror/sources/ ',
'ftp://.*/.* http://our/local/mirror/path /mirror/sources/ ',
'http://.*/.* http://our/local/mirror/path/mirror/sources/ ',
'https://.*/.* http://our/local/mirror/path/mirror/sources/ ']}
would add the following to auto.conf:
PREMIRRORS = 'git://.*/.* http://our/local/mirror/path/mirror/sources/ \
ftp://.*/.* http://our/local/mirror/path /mirror/sources/ \
http://.*/.* http://our/local/mirror/path/mirror/sources/ \
https://.*/.* http://our/local/mirror/path/mirror/sources/ '
Does this sound reasonable, or would a different parameter format be preferred?
2. Should the final text in auto.conf be 'PREMIRRORS =' or 'PREMIRRORS +='?
Since there is no other way to add to PREMIRRORS that I can see, I don't know
if it matters or not.
3. I see there is now an html document for autobuilder. Should any additions
still be documented in README-NEW-AUTOBUILDER or is that file being abandoned?
Thanks,
Bryan
