Labs/Jetpack/FlightDeck/Docs/SDK

Jetpack SDK is used to create XPI from an Add-on saved in FlightDeck's database. It is under development and future versions might not be backwards compatible. It is desired that Add-ons will work with many SDK versions.

First run (only for existing FlightDeck installations)

Next to updating the code there is a need to modify database and run some installation scripts.

Updating code

The release incorporating these changes is in release-1.a5 branch

git fetch
git checkout release-1.a5

Run installation scripts

./scripts/initiate.sh
./scripts/install.sh

The latter will create sdk_versions directory if needed, it will also copy flightdeckenv/src/jetpack-sdk to sdk_versions/jetpack-sdk. If it is a new installation it will download current develepment version of the SDK. Please check existance of these by running simply

ls -l sdk_versions/

Database modification

1. Create jetpack_sdk table, by running the

   ./scripts/syncdb.sh

2. Create first SDK instance

   INSERT INTO jetpack_sdk VALUES (1,'0.5',1,'jetpack-sdk');

3. Create jetpack_packagerevision.sdk_id field

   ALTER TABLE jetpack_packagerevision ADD sdk_id INT;

4. Set existing SDK version as the chosen one for existing Add-ons

   UPDATE jetpack_packagerevision SET sdk_id=1 WHERE package_id IN (SELECT id FROM jetpack_package WHERE type='a');

Add new Jetpack-SDK

Download desired SDK version.

cd sdk_versions

For version 0.7 version do

hg clone -r 0.7 http://hg.mozilla.org/labs/jetpack-sdk/ jetpack-SDK-0.7

Add to the FlightDeck system

./scripts/manage.sh add_jetpack_core jetpack-SDK-0.7
