Tentative Outline for Profict Presentation
As promised, here is a tentative outline of the talk I'm going to give at
Profict Spring Camp 2010. The talk is split into two, 40 minute sessions.
My concept is to spend the first session introducing Buildr and getting
everyone comfortable with its basic syntax and concepts, as well as some of
its more fundamental Java support. Session two is where I want to dive into
the things which really differentiate Buildr from other tools (bear in mind
that the other two talks at the conference are about Maven 3 and Gradle,
respectively). Except for the first two points, most of the "talk" is going
to be hands-on demos with some minimally pre-baked projects. As they say:
"more code, less power point".
As noted in the outline, I don't currently have a slot to talk about
sub-projects, nor do I even mention :war packaging (which I believe is a
sufficiently-common case as to deserve special attention).
Thoughts/suggestions/insults are very welcome!
Daniel

Never mind then. Keep it simple.

Hmm, if I did a compiler, I'd probably want to actually use the Compiler
framework, and that requires a bit more explaining. I guess I could do
something hacky which gets the job done but doesn't integrate fully with
Buildr's compiler support...

I just put together a new compiler that is using a different JAVA_HOME to
run.
It gives you the ability to compile half your projects with a jdk5, half the
others with a jdk6 (for example). And it's really small.
Think this would help ? I am sure neither Maven nor Ant support that.

Re: Tentative Outline for Profict Presentation
Posted by Daniel Spiewak <dj...@gmail.com>.
I'm actually not at a loss for material; quite the opposite! I would
certainly like to emphasize Buildr's extensibility, since I think that is
one of the key features which separates us from other build tools.
Unfortunately, I *also* want to cover a lot of the cool high-level features
like shell support and continuous-compilation. Maybe I'm just too greedy...
Coming back to extensibility, I was thinking of the following three examples
(in order):
- Documentation generation (ReST => PDF)
- A :run task
- JFlex compiler-compiler integration
The first two are obviously tasks that *everyone* runs into and Maven
handles in particularly clumsy ways. I picked the third mostly because it's
a very non-trivial task which illustrates Buildr's Java integration quite
nicely while still remaining surprisingly concise. Unfortunately, it's also
something that very few people ever do, and so I'm a little hesitant. Any
better suggestions here? Ideally, I'm looking for something which would be
nearly impossible in Maven/Ant (definitely requiring a Java extension),
something which showcases Java invocation and still falls into a dozen or so
lines. Maybe I should just recreate one of the core Buildr plugins?

If you need a few real plugins to demonstrate, I can probably give a hand
there.

Re: Tentative Outline for Profict Presentation

Hi Daniel,
I like your outline; it sounds like a presentation I'd like to attend
myself. Here's my (textile) outline for a 55-minute talk. I shift from
slide-presentation mode to hands-on coding (with as much cheating as
possible to save time) about mid-way, then come back to slides towards the
end. It's not fully ironed out yet but should give you a good idea of how
I go about it. I think the hardest part is picking which subjects to cover
from the wide array of interesting Buildr features.

I've talked to the Profict guys about that. They may be recording the
presentation, but I don't think it's settled yet. I suppose at the very
least I could just turn on QuickTime screencast recording, but that would
hardly be ideal...

Here's a revised outline. I finished the time estimates and realized I was
more than an hour over-budget. :-) I still need to cut some things, but
this is much more focused than the old one:

My apologies. I forgot that Apache mailing-lists don't allow attachments.
I've included the text-form outline below. If y'all would like, I can
upload the PDF somewhere as well (note: time annotations are a work in
progress).
Daniel
=======================================
Profict Spring Camp 2009 Buildr Outline
=======================================
One thing I'm not covering here is sub-projects. I'd like to, but they
don't
seem to fit anywhere. I also don't cover ``:war`` packaging or Jetty
support,
which I should really touch on.
Session One
===========
I intend to make the do two super-points (**What is Apache Buildr** and
**Mini-History**) using "traditional" slides, but everything else will be
very
hands-on.
* |5m| What is Apache Buildr?
* Maven 2 as it should have been
* Clean, declarative internal DSL
* Dead-easy customization
* Minimal kernel; *everything* is an extension
* Custom tasks
* Custom build structure
* Speed (you don't realize how *slow* Maven 2 is until you've tried
Buildr)
* |5m| Mini-History
* Why another build system?
* Rake is a good start, but not a good end
* Maven 2 is bloated, confusing and clumsy
* Assaf scratched his own itch
* |5m| Installing Buildr
* ``gem install buildr`` (we'll be using MRI for the hands-on)
* New in 1.4: All-in-One Buildr (untar and go)
* First steps
* |5m| Setting up the project
* Adding dependencies
* Direct (commons-cli)
* Transitive (wicket)
* Packaging
* Javadoc (using the ``doc``) task
* IDE Metadata
* Transition from Ant
* Demonstrate custom directory structure
* Transition from Maven
* *Almost* drop-in replacement
* Testing
* JUnit
* TestNG
* Cobertura
Session Two
===========
* Continuous compilation
* Interactive Shell
* IRB
* Clojure REPL
* Scala
* JRebel
* Demo with ``cc`` (just because it's cool)
* Scala/Groovy support
* Zero-step configuration
* Joint compilation
* Documentation support
* Test frameworks
* Specs + ScalaCheck
* ScalaTest
* Custom tasks
* Generating documentation (ReST => PDF)
* A ``run`` task
* ``local_task``
* JFlex
* "Proper" extensions
* Onward
