| [14:26] <tomwardill> I need someone who's better at bash parsing than I am: | |
| [14:26] <tomwardill> lxc-attach -n "$container_name" -- env -u LANG USER=buildbot $PWD/bin/with-xvfb $PWD/bin/test -vvv --shuffle --subunit "$@" | subunit-1to2 | |
| [14:26] <tomwardill> how do I make that pipe be part of the subcommand? | |
| [14:26] <tomwardill> currently it's attempting to pipe the output of lxc-attach into it | |
| [14:28] <cjwatson> Does lxc-attach produce some extra stuff as well as the output of the underlying command then? | |
| [14:28] <cjwatson> But also, that seems backwards | |
| [14:29] <cjwatson> If you want v2 output you could just use --subunit-v2. I thought you needed to produce v2 for testrepository and then use subunit-2to1 to convert it into something the master understands, though | |
| [14:29] <SpecialK|Canon> tomwardill: quote the bit after the --? | |
| [14:29] <cjwatson> It gets a bit awful with "$@" though | |
| [14:30] <cjwatson> Better to avoid that if we can | |
| [14:31] <cjwatson> BTW the other thing I noticed is that lpbuildbot/bzrbuildbot/subunittest.py is probably going to need to gain v2 support | |
| [14:31] <cjwatson> Oh, except that's only when we upgrade the master, never mind | |
| [14:31] <tomwardill> yeah, that's my backup plan for if the subunit-2to1 doesn't work | |
| [14:32] <tomwardill> (yes, that previous one was backwards) | |
| [14:33] <cjwatson> If lxc-attach is producing extra output, can you get it to shut up by adding the -q option? | |
| [14:35] <cjwatson> I think we want lp-setup-lxc-test to be producing a clean subunit stream without any extra guff anyway | |
| [14:35] <tomwardill> it's more that my output looks something like this: https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/h1zsmSsw/image.png | |
| [14:36] <cjwatson> Right, I get that, I'm just wondering why you need to avoid the output of lxc-attach being passed to subunit-2to1 | |
| [14:36] <cjwatson> It could only be a problem if lxc-attach is doing more than just passing through stdout from its inferior command | |
| [14:37] <tomwardill> I don't know tbh, I've got myself confused | |
| [14:38] * tomwardill starts at the beginning again | |
| [14:38] * cjwatson makes an LXC container to test. Been ages since I had one of these ... | |
| [14:39] <tomwardill> I could probably just ship you my worker lxdvm | |
| [14:40] <cjwatson> Heh, I think lxc-create will still be faster | |
| [14:41] <tomwardill> I suspect this might end in having to upgrade lpbuildbot/bzrbuildbot/subunittest.py with v2 | |
| [14:41] <tomwardill> (as you suggested) | |
| [14:41] <cjwatson> Tricky because praseodymium doesn't have the python-subunit version needed for that | |
| [14:41] <cjwatson> I think it should be avoidable in this pass | |
| [14:41] <cjwatson> (We can backport python-subunit if we have to, but let's try to avoid that work just now) | |
| [14:42] <tomwardill> cjwatson: my current lp-setup-lxc-test https://pastebin.canonical.com/p/Q2ZDHtyf9G/ | |
| [14:42] <tomwardill> based on a xenial worker/test-lxc | |
| [14:42] <cjwatson> OK | |
| [16:43] <tomwardill> oh hey, got postgres to behave | |
| [16:43] <tomwardill> now just the subunit stuff to solve | |
| [16:44] <tomwardill> oh no, it's only partially behaving | |
| [16:44] <tomwardill> boo | |
| [16:59] <tomwardill> nope, postgres still refusing to start when run via buildbot. Works fine by hand | |
| [16:59] * tomwardill stares at it | |
