BRUTUS NO LONGER RUNS NIGHTLY BUILDS

Gump is not so suitable for nightly builds as its not trusted (read this). Might make sense to configure some nightly build support on brutus. This document details how I set the basics for that up on brutus. If you want brutus to build nightlies for you, request a nightly build.

Set up an extensible crontab:

echo '#! /bin/bash
 
. /etc/profile
. /home/nightlybuild/.profile
for i in `ls /home/nightlybuild/etc/cron.d/*.sh`; do
  sh $i 2>&1 3>&1 > /dev/null
done' > ~/bin/cron.d.sh

chmod ug+x ~/bin/cron.d.sh
mkdir -p ~/etc/cron.d
echo '5 18 * * * /home/nightlybuild/bin/cron.d.sh' > ~/etc/crontab
crontab ~/etc/crontab

Add projects to build:

echo 'build svn maven site excalibur trunk/site' > ~/etc/cron.d/00-build-excalibur-site.sh
# ...

Do a test run:

bash ~/bin/cron.d.sh
