= general info =

piuparts runs on piuparts.cs.helsinki.fi aka piatti.debian.org and just like lintian and linda should be run on every developer machine before uploading :)

piuparts logs (currently outdated) are available at [http://piatti.debian.org http://piatti.debian.org]

#debian-qa is the irc-channel to coordinate work on irc, piuparts-devel is the project name on alioth.

= how to run piuparts on piatti =

the piuparts stuff is partly in the piupartsm account (master end, including debmirroring), and partly in the piuartss account (the slave, which actually runs piuparts)

run piuparts-slave.py as piupartss and watch it run via screen. the slave starts the master when it needs it, you don't need to start it manually

also read http://liw.iki.fi/liw/debian/piuparts-logfile-processing-howto

If you want to help, please don't bother liw, h01ger has access too and you should bother him.

... to be continued! ...

= troubleshouting/maintainance =

Sometimes the chroot tarballs in /home/piupartss/ need to be removed, currently there are sid.tar.gz and sarge.tar.gz

see /etc/piuparts/piuparts-slave.conf

= developing piuparts =

 * alioth project
 * http://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2007/PiupartsImprovements

= todo =

== machine related ==

 * rm /home and mv to lvm
 * recreate mirror
 * install xen-shell & tools
 * put all scripts and configs into svn
 * set up ud-ldap
 * backup /etc (and?)
 * also use the machine to run svnbuildstat.debian.net
 * also use the machine to run vlosuts

== codebase related ==

 * split /fails/ into more directories
 * <liw> (at some point) you may want to run the bin/mirror-debian script as user piupartsm
 * look at the irssi_away script to see how to monitor screen sessions, to notify when piuparts is hanging


= piuparts and pts integration suggestion =

In order for the PTS to be able to display piuparts testing status for a package, and link to its log file,
Piuparts could generate a set of static files that will be visible via http:
=== What is piuparts? ===
Line 60: Line 6:
%s = source package name
%v = source package version
%p = piuparts version

/source/%s -> index page
/source/%s/%v -> a particular log
/source/%s/latest -> log for latest version
/source/%s/piuparts-%p/%v -> a particular log from a version of piuparts

similar for /binary-$ARCH/

/%s -> /source/%s

For PTS integration: one file with results for all source packages:
/results-per-source.txt
    %s pass $MATCHINGLOG
    %s fail $MATCHINGLOG
Description: .deb package installation, upgrading, and removal testing tool
 piuparts tests that .deb packages (as used by Debian) handle
 installation, upgrading, and removal correctly. It does this by
 creating a minimal Debian installation in a chroot, and installing,
 upgrading, and removing packages in that environment, and comparing the
 state of the directory tree before and after. piuparts reports any
 files that have been added, removed, or modified during this process.
 .
 piuparts is meant as a quality assurance tool for people who create .deb
 packages to test them before they upload them to the Debian package archive.
