[sandbox] Nightlies?

[Rahul Akolkar <ra...@gmail.com>]

Many projects provide nightlies for sandbox stuff -- now that we've a
decent amount of code in sandbox, can we do this for Shale?

If this is considered a good idea, and I can help, I will.

Thanks for the pointers, added the description bits for the sandbox
test / example apps in r443473. Ofcourse, we'll want more, especially
for the SCXML modules since they're new. I hope to get some of the
src/site bits in there next week.

OK, I've committed a simple assembly module (sandbox-dist) to create nightly
distros for the non-webapps in the sandbox.  It is set to deploy them to:

  http://people.apache.org/builds/shale/nightly/sandbox/

to make it clear that they are not the same sort of thing as the stuff in
the directory above.

The website is going to need a little TLC before it'll be publishable, such
as the nav bars for the left side and a bit more fleshed out content for the
descriptions, but the assembly looks reasonable.  The process is analogous
to what you do for the main site:

    cd $SHALE_SANDBOX_HOME
    mvn clean install site
    cd sandbox-dist
    mvn assembly:assembly

I also updated the nightly build script, so we'll see if this actually works
tonight.

Thanks!

(Looks like Craig has that under control.)

In addition, I'd like to publish the sandbox website.

If there is any documentation you want published for the example apps,
just add it under src/site.  Otherwise, a <description> element in the
pom will show up on the generated index page.  (Multi-line
descriptions are safe again, they fixed maven-jar-plugin.)

Thanks!

That's a good idea ... I'll see what I can do tonight.  Our nightlies run on
the zones machine off a pretty simple script.

If this is considered a good idea, and I can help, I will.


I think the only non-trivial task would be an equivalent of the "shale-dist"
assembly module in framework, to gather up the JAR modules.  The test
webapps themselves should already be set up to self-publish.
