By default, the patchbot should run without needing to tune its configuration. You can use a specific configuration file using '''sage -patchbot --config=fullpath/config_file.json''' For the complete list of configurable entities, see the code of the ''get_config'' function in https://github.com/robertwb/sage-patchbot/blob/master/src/patchbot.py. The base patchbot configuration can be found there. 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: {"bonus": {"niceguy": 200}} To give preference to a component you care about, use {"bonus": {"combinatorics": 200}} To avoid the use of ccache, use: {"use_ccache": false} To run only at night, use {"time_of_day": "22-7"} A more complex example of config file could be: |

Running the patchbot
You can let the patchbot choose the tickets it will run on.
Install the patchbot using sage -i patchbot (warning: the current spkg in sage is not up-to-date)
(2015-05) The latest available version can be installed using sage -i http://chapoton.perso.math.cnrs.fr/patchbot-2.3.9.spkg
Run the patchbot using sage -patchbot
It is safer to run the patchbot in an unused sage install.
Some python packages are now required: (python-dateutil; pytz or python-tz ? ; git; time)
Other dependencies: shell command wget
It will run forever, as long as it finds a ticket to work on. Tickets are only considered if their authors are trusted.
Please consider registering here if you run a patchbot. It is helpful to know whom to contact.
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
--skip-base will skip the check that the base sage installation is sane.
--plugin-only will only build (sage and the doc) and run the plugins but not the tests (much quicker but less useful).
--safe-only will only test branches that only change files inside the directory "src/sage" (this is the case by default).
Configuration
By default, the patchbot should run without needing to tune its configuration. You can use a specific configuration file in the json format and run the patchbot with
sage -patchbot --config=fullpath/config_file.json
The json format mostly looks like a python dictionary. Here is an example of a valid configuration file
{"bonus": {"niceguy": 200, "needs_work": -20}, "use_ccache": false, "safe_only": true, "skip_base": true, "time_of_day": "22-7", "parallelism": 8 }
Note that the booleans must be written with no capital first letter.
The config will be read again between every run, hence it allows live configuration of the patchbot.
The list of configurable entities are::
option |
type |
default |
description |
time_of_day |
string |
"0-0" |
(example "0-0" or "22-7") an interval of time during which the patchbot is active |
bonus |
dictionary |
see below |
some bonus to influence the order in which tickets are tested (see below) |
safe_only |
boolean |
true |
whether to only test "safe" tickets modifying only src/sage or src/doc |
skip_base |
boolean |
false |
whether to run testlong on the base before testing tickets |
parallelism |
integer |
3 |
the number of thread to execute when compiling or testing |
idle |
integer |
300 |
seconds to wait when network is not working or there are no tickets available |
timeout |
integer |
10800 |
|
base_branch |
string |
develop |
the name of the git branch to synchronized with the develop branch on trac |
plugins |
list of strings |
see below |
the plugins to use |
bonus
There are two kinds of bonus, the one related to tickets:
logins (counted x2 if author and x1 if participant)
component (e.g. "linear algebra", "combinatorics", ...)
status (e.g. "needs_review", "positive_review", ...)
priority (e.g "blocker", "critical", ...)
and the one related to other bot reports:
behind: weight the number of commits behind master
- (and count for -1 if the commit is not locally available)
applies: whether previous bots succeeded when merging the branch with the current beta
unique : give less chance for already seen tickets
The defaults are
bonus = { "blocker" : 100, "critical" : 60, "major" : 10, "minor" : 0, "needs_review" : 1000, "positive_review": 500, "needs_info" : 0, "needs_work" : 0 "unique" : 40, "applies" : 20, "behind" : 1 }
But you could add
bonus = { "vbraun": 10, "inconito": -5, "linear programming": 200, "finance": -200 "14382": 100, "15777": 100 }
