ReleaseEngineering/PuppetAgain/Modules/buildmaster

This module installs and sets up the buildmaster software. Multiple buildmasters can be installed on the same node. This module supports two different styles of masters, "Mozilla", and "Simple". More detailed descriptions of both are below.

"Mozilla" buildmasters

Mozilla buildmasters are special because they are set-up using external scripts to do some of the the work. To set up a node as Mozilla buildmaster node, use the following snippet in the nodes definition. (configuration should not be in nodes.pp there is already a [bug] for this.)

 node "relabs07.build.mtv1.mozilla.com" {
       buildmaster::buildbot_master::mozilla {
           "bm07-build1":
           http_port => 8001,
           master_type => "build",
           basedir => "build1";
       }
       buildmaster::buildbot_master::mozilla {
           "bm07-build2":
           http_port => 8002,
           master_type => "build",
           basedir => "build2";
       }
       include toplevel::server::buildmaster

Masters can be one of the following:

• build
• scheduler
• try
• tests

Masters will be installed in:

  /builds/buildbot/${basedir}

Secrets

This module fills in a BuildSlaves.py file with a bunch of secrets used to communicate with other services:

blobber_password

blobber_username

Username and password used to communicate with Blobber

jetperf_oauth_key

jetperf_oauth_secret

talos_oauth_key

talos_oauth_secret

datazilla authentication tokens

android_tests_password

linux_tests_password

mac_tests_password

win_tests_password

Slave passwords, per slave type

balrog_password

balrog_username

Balrog credentials

tuxedo_password

tuxedo_username

tuxedo credentials

"Simple" buildmasters

Simple buildmasters are fully setup by Puppet. Instantiation usually should happen in a toplevel class using a snippet like:

buildmaster::buildbot_master::simple {
    "servo1":
        basedir => "/builds/buildbot/servo1",
        http_port => 8001,
        master_cfg => "puppet:///modules/buildmaster/servo/master.cfg";
}

"buildbot_version" can also be passed to install an alternative version of Buildbot.
