BuildSystem

This project was started at https://github.com/MarkOates/hexagon/pull/18, which was shipped. The PR included the foundation for the build system, but does not include the integrations or specific cases for Hexagon. Note that the code in that PR is one of my favorite features to write.

The initial impitus for this feature was to eventually replace the real-time parsing of build output, that happens in hexagon on each frame at display time.

Basic Architecture

Builds/Base

• started_at
• ended_at
• status
• <BuildStages/Base*>

BuildStages/Base

• type
• status "finished" "running" "not_started" "passed" "failed"
• started_at
• ended_at

ReportRenderers/Base (only text now, rending on the Hexagon/Hud)

• render_text
• parser(?)

ReportRenderer

• has all the different report types and will delegate rendering depending on the type
• error on unknown type

BuildStageFactory

• BuildStages/Base

More notes:

• releaser releases source
• builds for linux
• builds for windows
• builds app package for mac
• distributes build fragments across systems on a network for a faster build (parallel build)
• notifies into hexagon
