first snippet in documentation

[monperrus]

Hi all,

In the landing doc page of Repairnator https://github.com/eclipse/repairnator/tree/master/doc the first snippet is

mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=fr.inria.spirals.repairnator.pipeline.Launcher -Dexec.args="--buildId=235838150"

This is for Travis and Travis is dead :skull: .

It would be great to replace this first snippet by a class taking a commit id as input.

mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=fr.inria.spirals.repairnator.pipeline.Launcher -Dexec.args="--project=org/myproject --commit=eaa16725243ddddeeeeee"

Do we already have this?

I am not sure. Maybe others can take a look.

mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=fr.inria.spirals.repairnator.pipeline.Launcher -Dexec.args="--project=org/myproject --commit=eaa16725243ddddeeeeee"

Not exactly this, but we have a mode in which we can run the launcher using a Github slug and commit id for Sorald. This is how it is called in the code. I think @Sofi1410 used this recently for her tool.

Like @ khaes-kth mentioned, we have a mode for that, but we are increasing the data to run Repairnator. So a class for it might be a solution.

Anyways, I'm confused about the question.

You are asking if we can add another way to run the tool by only giving a commit?

[monperrus]

the primary goal is to replace the current first snippet by a better one, unrelated to travis.

that may imply writing a bit more code to have a clean one-liner.

Hi all,

AFAIU, there are two tasks here:

• The BranchLauncher is the launcher that is executed with that command. In there, we branch according to the launcherMode option: https://github.com/eclipse/repairnator/blob/56735a9db9b54b65a4a186f4f865bcd954e33883/src/repairnator-pipeline/src/main/java/fr/inria/spirals/repairnator/pipeline/BranchLauncher.java#L57-L88

  The default for this option is LauncherMode.REPAIR. As you can see in the code above, this option launches a TravisMainProcess, which is not what we want to do.

  The option we want to use if LauncherMode.GIT_REPOSITORY, which launches a GitHubMainProcess. Right now, to execute this we could use the following command:

  mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=fr.inria.spirals.repairnator.pipeline.Launcher -Dexec.args="--launcherMode GIT_REPOSITORY --gitrepourl https://github.com/andre15silva/failingProject --gitrepoidcommit fda5d6161a5602a76e810209491d04cf91f4803b"

  IMO, we should move the default to be LauncherMode.GIT_REPOSITORY. This will be a breaking change.

• When using the command above, we face another issue: the default repair tools. Right now, it appears that NPEFix is the default repair tool, but I am not finding where it is defined.

  My question here is: which tool or set of tools do we want to have as default?
