4 years ago Right now we trigger a binder build but i'm not sure, do we get a response / feedback if the bulid fails?
No. trigger_binder.sh just curls the endpoint and gives the return code
and as we're using the postBuild Binder config which is basically just installing how we would in CI
the repo2docker build on the Binder side shouldn't fail. That being said though, the idea of using repo2docker in CI (to test and prebuild the Docker image for Binder so that work was offloaded from them) were the reasons that I was looking at machine-learning-apps/repo2docker-action (and why there is now a pyhf/binder Docker image). The discussions with Tim and Chris on these Issues:
make it seem like it might not be a good fit for us as we want to use Binder config files in the top level binder/ dir.
@lukasheinrich did you have additional ideas related to this? Additionally, can you elaborate on what you and @rochaporto were thinking about here?
