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piuparts logs (currently outdated) are available at [http://piatti.debian.org http://piatti.debian.org]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
 * mirror proposed updates and security updates too
 * finish aide configuration - http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DSA/MachineSetup
 (but: <buxy> h01ger: AFAIK, aide is not consistently used (and is known to break on merkel currently), so you can probably skip that part for now)
 * drop Joey a note so that all users are replicated via ldap
 * backup /etc and /org via http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DSA/DaBackup
 * also use the machine to run svnbuildstat.debian.net
 * also use the machine to run vlosuts

done:
 * apt-get install debian.org aide nagios-nrpe-server lvm2
 * apt-get install -t etch-backports xen-shell xen-tools

== 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:
= Overview about piuparts =
Line 67: Line 8:
%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
