runboat/README.md

runboat ☸️

A simple runbot lookalike on kubernetes. Main goal is replacing the OCA runbot.

Requirements

For running the builds:

• A namespace in a kubernetes cluster.
• A wildcard DNS domain that points to the kubernetes ingress.
• A postgres database, accessible from within the cluster namespace with a user with permissions to create database.

For running the controller:

• Python 3.10
• kubectl
• A KUBECONFIG that provides access to the namespace where the builds are deployed, with permissions to create and delete service, deployment, ingress, secret and configmap resources.

TODO

Prototype:

• plug it on a bunch of OCA and shopinvader repos to test load
• handle init failures, add failed status
• basic API

MVP:

• finish api
• build/log and build/init-log api endpoints
• report build status to github
• k8s init container timeout
• error handling in API
• basic tests
• look at other TODO in code
• build and publis runboat container image
• deployment
• plug it on shopinvader and acsone to test on small scale
• create builds for all supported repos on startup (goes with sticky branches)
• advanced reaper (sticky branches)
• test what happens when the watcher looses connection to k8s

More:

• UI
• handle PR close (delete all builds for PR)
• handle branch delete (delete all builds for branch)
