[ovirt-devel] [JIRA] (OVIRT-416) [standard-ci] build-artifacts should reuse the artifacts built on check-merged if any

[Vojtech Szocs]

Hi,

> Any patches sent on this?

I'd like to help.

Looking at the recent Engine (master) build:

  http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-engine_master_build-artifacts-el7-x86_64/1691/

  $ rpm -qlp ovirt-engine-webadmin-portal-4.1.0-0.0.master.20161125171318.gitae69c34.el7.centos.noarch.rpm

it shows we still build all [browser x language] GWT permutations,
basically there are tons of <md5>.cache.js files in `webadmin.war`
directory (each one represents a single permutation).

In automation/build-artifacts.sh, we could add some variable that
controls what kind of GWT build to do (e.g. GWT_BUILD_MODE):

1, snapshot GWT build: all supported browsers x en_US (only)
   => 3 x 1 = 3 GWT permutations

2, full GWT build: all supported browsers x all supported locales
   => 3 x 9 = 27 (!) GWT permutations

With "snapshot GWT build", we should do:

  rpmbuild \
    .. existing stuff
    -D "ovirt_build_locales 0" \
    .. existing stuff

GWT_BUILD_MODE can default to "full GWT build".

But how do we override GWT_BUILD_MODE when doing non-release builds?

Regards,
Vojtech
