maza/gitian-travis repository overview

⁠gitian-docker

Build coin daemons & QT wallets with gitian in docker

Requires Docker 1.7+ installed on a build host

Host may be local iron, AWS (or other) instance, or Virtualbox VM

Currently testing has been done with:

• Travis-CI.org

  • .travis.yml example⁠
  • MAZA 0.10.2 will not complete if ALL steps are performed on travis as per the example above
  • travis build pulls maza/gitian-travis⁠ which is an Automated Build on Dockerhub
  • Travis caching may or may not work in the example provided
  • Builds currently succeed, with fail marks (hashes are provided, travis marks build as failed because a script commend exited non-zero)

• Macbook Pro

  • OSX El Capitan
  • Docker 1.9.1
  • VirtualBox 5.0.14
  • Docker-Toolbox
  • build success is dependent on correct write perms
    • needs additional scripting to:
    • detect OS / Docker-Toolbox use
    • ensure that the build directory is mounted in the VM w/ correct perm/owner
    • Docker build is set to accommodate correct Vbox use

• AWS m4.xlarge instance

  • Ubuntu 15.10
  • Docker 1.9.1
  • Builds are successful

⁠Prebuilt Image Availability

• maza/gitian-travis⁠
• maza/gitian-docker⁠

• images with premade base vms are created at travis-ci and pushed to docker hub (view .travis.yml)
  • use of LXC prevents this from being made on dockerhub infrastructure
• images without premade base vms are created vi Docker hub
  • push requires use of encrpted travis variables
• Prebuilt images are for automation & testing, and should not be relied on exclusively
• Available images are to support automated gitian building vi travis-ci
• MAZA⁠ is currently the only supported coin
  • more coins will be added to a build matrix as time permits

⁠Quick Start

./build.sh [ENVFILE]

e.g.

./build.sh maza-10.2.env

To change coins, simply make a new env file with the correct variables set

## MOAR
(or, we know you like to build stuff so we'll build a builder for your builder so you can build moar)

- ./build.sh 
  sets a few variables, corrects the Dockerfiles, and runs the docker containers for you
- make_gitian_vms.sh runs in the stage1 container, and sets up the gitian build environment for you
- gitian_build.sh runs in the builder container and performs the build 
   - currently this builds win, linux, osx 

This will take the stock dockerfile and build one we'll use to build the Stage1 Container
Stage 1 container will 
 - clone a fresh copy of your source
 - get the gitian-builder
 - make the base "VMs" (LXC containers) for your gitian builds
 - copy those base-vms to your LOCAL disk
 - produce a Dockerfile for the gitian-builder container

Stage 2 Gitian-Builder container is build with your NAMESPACE (your username) 
and sets the entry point for the next script.
