Automate deployment #79

Closed echebbi closed 5 years ago

echebbi commented 5 years ago

Motivation

Pitclipse currently requires manual deployment in order to be available through its update site. This makes harder to provide updates and can thus slow down releases.

Possible solution

We can overcome this by automating the deployment. For instance, Travis CI could be configured to deploy a new update site each time a tag is pushed to the master branch.

Additionally, we could turn the existing update site into a composite one so that we could provide several versions at once, such as:

Implementation

Travis CI can be configured thanks to the .travis.yml file; login and password can be encrypted through the Web UI.

The following blog posts show how a composite update site can be created and deployed to Bintray with Maven:

@philglover what is the current process to deploy a new version of Pitclipse?

philglover commented 5 years ago

It was manual upload to an S3 bucket. @hcoles can grant you access I think.

I did briefly look into having Travis deploy to S3 a few years ago but it did require some S3 admin to do. From having had a look at the docs again, it seems a little more intuitive than it did at the time.

Can I just say for the public record, the work and effort you have done @echebbi has been fantastic. Thanks for picking this project up and bringing new life to it.

philglover commented 5 years ago

Aha, just re-read things. Yes publishing to bintray is also a good approach.

http://eclipse.pitest.org/release/ points at the S3 bucket - I assume again @hcoles can point eclipse.pitest.org to bintray.

hcoles commented 5 years ago

@philglover I assume I can too, although I have no memory of how I set this all up.

echebbi commented 5 years ago

@philglover thank you for the acknowledgment, it is very much appreciated! I believe using Bintray would be way more convenient because I already have the snippets for creating and uploading composite update sites. That being said, I will take a look at S3.

@hcoles I'll keep you updated on my choice between S3 and Bintray; we'll see at that time what needs to be done exactly.

echebbi commented 5 years ago

Hi @hcoles, I just deployed the new 2.0.0 release to https://dl.bintray.com/kazejiyu/Pitclipse/updates/, do you think that you could redirect http://eclipse.pitest.org/release/ to this address?

hcoles commented 5 years ago

To be honest not sure. Just looked at what I setup for the current update site many many years ago.

I currently have a CNAME record that points eclipse.pitest.org to an S3 bucket. The rest of the site is hosted on github pages.

If bintray supports it, and you can tell me what the value should be, I can add a CNAME for the new update site. Otherwise I think we'd need some sort of html hackery on guthub pages.

echebbi commented 5 years ago

That's unfortunate. According to Bintray's documentation adding a CNAME 1) would require a Premium account and 2) is unavailable for dl.bintray.com URLs.

@hcoles considering uploading to the S3 bucket instead, could you grant me the access?

@philglover the main reason why I'd like to keep the update site on http://eclipse.pitest.org/release/ is because that's the link you specified in the Eclipse Marketplace. Would you mind either changing the update site URL to point to Bintray or granting me the editing rights? Looks like it's possible at the very bottom of the Edit tab in Pitclipse's product page:

echebbi commented 5 years ago

@hcoles, @philglover and I managed to update the Eclipse Marketplace so that it now points to Bintray, hence I believe that this issue is solved and that you don't have to bother with the S3 bucket.

hcoles commented 5 years ago

@echebbi Excellent, I'll stop trying to remember how to administer S3.

LorenzoBettini commented 4 years ago

@echebbi so is http://eclipse.pitest.org/release/ containing the new releases from now on?

echebbi commented 4 years ago

@LorenzoBettini new releases will be published on https://dl.bintray.com/kazejiyu/Pitclipse/updates/

LorenzoBettini commented 4 years ago

@echebbi thanks! I see it's also in the main README (sorry, I had missed that).
