There are (at least) two ways to run your own private patchbot.

In any case, it is better to have disk space available.

== Run on all tickets ==		 == Running the patchbot ==
Line 9: Line 5:
# Install the patchbot using "sage -i patchbot"  * Install the patchbot using '''sage -i patchbot'''
Line 11: Line 7:
# Run the patchbot using "sage -patchbot"  * Run the patchbot using '''sage -patchbot'''
Line 15: Line 11:
== Run on chosen tickets == You can run a specific ticket by using '''sage -patchbot --ticket=N''' where N is a ticket number such as 12345.
Line 17: Line 13:
Here is a proposal on how to use the patchbot only on tickets you want to work on. Several other options are available, see '''sage -patchbot --help'''

Warning: this is for a mercurial setting, not for the new git setting. (2015-04) The latest available version can be installed using '''sage -i http://chapoton.perso.math.cnrs.fr/patchbot-2.3.3.spkg'''

# install the latest sage development release (download from http://www.sagemath.org/download-latest.html and make) == Configuration ==
Line 23: Line 19:
# install the latest patchbot (clone from http://github.com/robertwb/sage-patchbot) You can use a specific configuration file using '''sage -patchbot --config=config_file.json'''
Line 25: Line 21:
# in a terminal, inside your_sage_home_dir, "./sage -clone 0" The base patchbot configuration can be found at https://github.com/robertwb/sage-patchbot/blob/master/src/patchbot.py in the ''get_config'' function.
All of these settings can be overridden by passing a config file which is treated as a json overlay on these defaults.
Line 27: Line 24:
# in a terminal: "cd sage-patchbot/src" then run "ipython" For example, to let the tickets of user "niceguy" be given some priority, use
Line 29: Line 26:
# in ipython, "from patchbot import Patchbot", then "P = Patchbot('your_sage_home_dir',"http://patchbot.sagemath.org/",None,plugin_only=True)" or "P = Patchbot('your_sage_home_dir',"http://patchbot.sagemath.org/",None)"

The first one will only run the plugins (much faster), the second one will run all the tests (much slower).

# Then choose your favorite ticket number N and "P.test_a_ticket(N)"

It is important that the sage sources in sage-main are in their initial state when running the patchbot.		 {"author":{"niceguy":200}}

Running the patchbot

You can let the patchbot choose the tickets it will run on.

  • Install the patchbot using sage -i patchbot

  • Run the patchbot using sage -patchbot

I will run forever, as long as it finds a ticket to work on. Tickets are only considered if their authors are trusted.

You can run a specific ticket by using sage -patchbot --ticket=N where N is a ticket number such as 12345.

Several other options are available, see sage -patchbot --help

(2015-04) The latest available version can be installed using sage -i http://chapoton.perso.math.cnrs.fr/patchbot-2.3.3.spkg

Configuration

You can use a specific configuration file using sage -patchbot --config=config_file.json

The base patchbot configuration can be found at https://github.com/robertwb/sage-patchbot/blob/master/src/patchbot.py in the get_config function. All of these settings can be overridden by passing a config file which is treated as a json overlay on these defaults.

For example, to let the tickets of user "niceguy" be given some priority, use
