spreads-sdist.tar.gz #34

Open boredland opened 9 years ago

Hi there,

I guess spreads-sdist.tar.gz is a precompiled version of spreads and depencies. How is it created?

Yours BoredLand

Check out the spreads repository, enter the directory, then run:

python setup.py sdist

It will create a dist folder with a tarball that you can install with pip and/or feed to the SpreadPi script.

Thats nice. I guess this should be done in an armhf environment?

duerig commented 9 years ago

It doesn't matter what environment it is done in, as long as there are the build tools that it needs. The build process is just Python compilation and JS file stitching. There is nothing that gets compiled down to machine code. I usually run it on my development Ubuntu VM without doing anything special to try to make it seem like an arm processor.

Awesome. Does the spreadpi-script work with only a symlink to spreads-sdist.tar.gz from the delivery/files folder?

duerig commented 9 years ago

There is a command line option you can use to point it at any tarball location. I think it copies or symlinks the path you point it at to the spreads-sdist.tar.gz location.

FYI, the present SpreadPi script has a number of issues that are not ideal which is why I'm working on a replacement using Spindle. In the longer term, it would be good to have a Spindle-like build system for both the Pi and for the Android images you are working on. Among other things, Spindle uses COW images so that you only need to do slow things once (like install all the base packages). Which means you can re-run later stages (compile and install a quick bugfix) without waiting all day for the same version of all the dependencies to install first.

That'd be awesome. Testing the script is quite a torture right now. By the way: it works. The first built image will be online in some minutes: http://ec2-52-28-157-49.eu-central-1.compute.amazonaws.com/

You are aware of the images at http://buildbot.diybookscanner.eu? Just making sure...

Yes, using them all the time. Was just wondering what that part meant in the build-script.
