Hi all,
I think that we need to create new git repo for jenkins in our gerrit.
This git will store jenkins jobs configuration, scripts etc.
Thoughts ?

+1, this has been brought up in the past and i think is important for growing the infra
and our ability
to run more complex scripts and jobs.

+1! Few minutes ago I've failed to find the code for
vdsm_verify_error_codes so I can understand what's broken in
http://jenkins.ovirt.org/view/vdsm/job/vdsm_verify_error_codes/84/console
having a `git blame` would make this much easier.

i propose myself and dcaro for starts since we are the most active maintainers
for jenkins jobs code currently.
i believe someone from ovirt-node (mburns or fabiand) will also need +2 permissions.

Not opposed, but what does this do for creating or changing existing

changes in a git checkout, submit them, then they get pushed live

IOW, I think we need to map out exactly how things are supposed to get

Not opposed, but what does this do for creating or changing existing
jobs? Do we have to do it outside of jenkins? Do we simply make
changes in a git checkout, submit them, then they get pushed live
automatically?
Let me try to explain.
Currently the status is all job logic is written inside the job itself, this is bad
practise,
for a few reasons:
1. no code review (job configuration is also only viewable and accessible to jenkins
power-users/admins, not very "open source" approach)
2. difficult to include usage of files (answer file for example for automating
engine-setup)
3. backup of code and revisions (sure there is the job config-history but that's
really for troubleshooting the restoring jobs)
4. writing long complex code in bash/python inside a textbox is error prone and not
convenient.
I have experience from the past 2 years of writing code for jenkins jobs that got complex
and longer as the product evolved.
today i use even more than one repository for running jobs in jenkins.
the proposed change is to keep all code inside a git repo instead just inside jenkins
jobs.
it doesn't mean that every job that has 2-3 lines of code should go into the git,
it means we have a choice, if the code gets too complex (like running engine-setup +
engine-upgrade) then we can use git as the source for the code.
I intend to add some of the existing jobs that runs complex code into it, but not all of
them. that's up to the job maintainer to decide.
IOW, I think we need to map out exactly how things are supposed to
get
updated. I don't think we want people to have to change things in 3
different places. We'll end up with some changes in git that aren't
in
the live jenkins, some that aren't in git, but are live.
Also, what about new job development? Is that done through jenkins
and
then somehow exported into the git repo? New jobs can take many
iterations to get *right*.
the way to use it in a job is by using the 'multiple scm plugin' which allows you
to listen to more than one git repo for a job.
you can see an example in the new setup+upgrade job knesenso is building now
http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt_engine_upgrade_stable_32_to_latest_32/...
I know I haven't been involved, but was something like this[1]
discussed
or evaluated?
as i mentioned, this plugin is good mainly for keeping track on who made change

Let me try to explain. Currently the status is all job logic is
written inside the job itself, this is bad practise, for a few
reasons:
Not all, but most (ovirt-node-iso* jobs runs a script file in it's
source repository). The logic in the jenkins job is simply clean up and
run.
1. no code review (job configuration is also only viewable and
accessible to jenkins power-users/admins, not very "open source"
approach)
Agreed, though we can easily make the code read-only to non-power-users.
2. difficult to include usage of files (answer file for example for
automating engine-setup)
I haven't encountered this issue. I've had jobs before (though not in
upstream oVirt) that pulled files from other jobs for this purpose. For
example, a job that generates a file like "releases.txt" that contains
mappings for something like "FDEVEL=19" FRELEASED=18", etc. which are
then sourced in the other job
3. backup of code and revisions (sure there is the job
config-history
but that's really for troubleshooting the restoring jobs)
4. writing long complex code in bash/python inside a textbox is
error
prone and not convenient.
I agree about writing code in a textbox like that, it's not ideal. I
generally copy it out, edit it in an editor of my choice, then copy it
back in.
I have experience from the past 2 years of writing code for jenkins
jobs that got complex and longer as the product evolved. today i use
even more than one repository for running jobs in jenkins.
the proposed change is to keep all code inside a git repo instead
just inside jenkins jobs. it doesn't mean that every job that has
2-3 lines of code should go into the git, it means we have a choice,
if the code gets too complex (like running engine-setup +
engine-upgrade) then we can use git as the source for the code.
OK, I think that's the right choice. I expect many jobs are simple
automake builds that do thinks like:
./autogen
make
make install
make rpms
maybe with some slight changes. If there are more complex jobs, then
yes, moving the code into something like git is probably worthwhile. It
might not be necessary for ovirt-node to have a maintainer on the git
repo though. I think our jobs are relatively simple enough to not need it.
I intend to add some of the existing jobs that runs complex code
into it, but not all of them. that's up to the job maintainer to
decide.

As a side-note, I highly recommend this plug-in for Firefox:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/its-all-text/
It puts an (edit) button beside an HTML TEXTAREA field. Clicking the
button opens your favorite text editor with a temp file. Saving to the
temp file updates the TEXTAREA (with a visual cue).
I started using it years ago to save sanity when doing wiki work. The
temp file is a bonus, as it is usually still present on your filesystem
after a browser crash.

As a side-note, I highly recommend this plug-in for Firefox:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/its-all-text/
It puts an (edit) button beside an HTML TEXTAREA field. Clicking the
button opens your favorite text editor with a temp file. Saving to
the
temp file updates the TEXTAREA (with a visual cue).
I started using it years ago to save sanity when doing wiki work. The
temp file is a bonus, as it is usually still present on your
filesystem
after a browser crash.
+10! - really nice plugin :).. thanks for the tip.
