I am working on a ruby project that its intention, at the moment, is to automate the deploy process for an iOS project. In the future, android will be considered.
The ruby deploy file will take a JSON url that contains information about the apps intended to release. The Fastlane actions will do the job.
{
"version":1.0,
"build":2,
"git":{
"name":"appName",
"url":"git#gitlab.com:me/myapp.git"
},
"apps":[
{
"bundle_id":"com.myapp1",
"app_name":"App1",
"username":"me#kmail.com",
"password":"1234",
"team_name":"TeamName"
},
{
"bundle_id":"com.App2",
"app_name":"App2",
"username":"me#kmail.com",
"password":"1234",
"team_name":"TeamName"
}
]
}
The initial idea for the project was to have:
The deploy project (Gemfile, files, dependencies ...) with its own git repository.
The Xcode project with its own repository.
A Fastlane project (with all the fastlane files) with its own repository
Correct setup
Xcode and Fastlane projects as submodules of deploy project.
This whole project is intended to be in a CI machine.
NOTE Ask for more info if needed.
Question
The deploy project calls fastlane actions using exec(). Since the fastlane folder now is in
./XcodeProject/fastlane, How can I call the actions? My first approach was:
exec("fastlane ./XcodeProject/MyAction")
but I am wrong...
Any ideas?
Thank you
You may be able to temporarily change your working directory using a shell script, where you enclose your cd and fastlane commands in parentheses, like so:
(cd XcodeProject && fastlane MyAction)
I'm not sure if that will work within your exec(...) call but you could write an external script that does the above, and then run that within an exec call.
See this post for more information.

I need to execute groovy script with gradle, but the thing is that these scripts are located in external directory (let's say it's Desktop). I've heard, that in previous versions of Gradle (currently working on 3.2.1) it was not possible, since it is not part of the gradle project. I wonder if it is possible now, or do I have to copy all these scripts into some folder located in gradle project, to execute it.
User story:
I found script in external directory (based on some properties passed to console) - I have absolute path to the script
Now I want to execute this script (build.gradle) without copying it into my gradle project
I'm pretty green with gradle and I hope I made my point clear.
Thanks for help and every attempt :)
Is that what you're looking for? To run the script clone the repository, navigate to 42556631/project folder and run the command:
gradle -b ../script/build.gradle clean build
yes you need to move build.gradle file into project/Build Script folder and then run it.
I'm looking into TeamCity and Jenkins, for a CI server.
My goal is this: every time someone commits a change to our repo, the CI server builds all targets in the project as .ipa's - ready for downloading/installing on a device.
I got Teamcity and Jenkins up and running, using a Mac mini as a build slave. That part of it is working fine.
Using Jenkins XCode plugin, I succeeded in building all targets as .ipa's.
I havent had such luck with Teamcity. The XCode plugin doesnt allow building all targets. Rather, you have to specify which targets you want to build, in each build configuration.
I approached the makers of Teamcity, and they gave me some convoluted method involving meta runners and a lot of duplication, in order to accomplish my goal.
Instead of relying on plugins, I'd rather build the .ipa's using shell scripting. However, as I'm not a script ninja, I can't figure out how to go about this.
I can figure out how to build one target via scripting, but it illudes me how make it build them all. Everytime I create a new target in the project, I don't want to have to add it at the CI server. The server should be able to automatically build all targets in the project.
...Maybe someone has a better solution? Any help is much appreciated.
What you should do (codes are bash script snippets, ready to run on OS X, you don't need to install anything except Xcode's CLI/Command Line Tools):
if you want to do this for every Xcode project file you have in your repository you should first search for these (if you have a specific Xcode project you can skip this)
for path in $(find . -type d -name '*.xcodeproj' -or -name '*.xcworkspace')
do
after this you can query all the shared (!) schemes through Xcode's command line tool
if [[ "$project" == *".xcodeproj" ]]; then
xcodebuild_output=($(xcodebuild -list -project "$project"))
else
xcodebuild_output=($(xcodebuild -list -workspace "$project"))
fi
now you have all the schemes so you can simply xcodebuild them one-by-one
Here's a bash script we developed to search for every Xcode project and every scheme configuration in a repository: https://github.com/concretebuilder/steps-cocapods-and-repository-validator/blob/master/find_schemes.sh
Note: you need to mark you schemes as shared to get xcodebuild (the command line interface of Xcode) list them.
What I have done :
I have Jenkins set up on my Ubuntu in :
/var/lib/jenkins/
I have a job, that runs every 45 minutes that does a hg pull and hg update --clean default
from my bitbucket repository.So this is running fine.I have a folder
/var/lib/jenkins/jobs/Code Deployement
which contains the latest updated code from my repository.
Problem :
However, I want to access my updated code from
/var/www/html/[project-name]
Query :
Is there anyway i can make jenkins job update this folder instead of the /var/lib/jenkins/Code Deployment folder ? I certainly dont want to make /var/www/html/[project-name] as my jenkins home folder.
How can I achieve what I described above.Will I have to copy the folder from the jobs folder to my desired location after every time the job runs ? Please help me out with the solution,I'am a beginner with automated deployment using Jenkins.
Thank you.
Under "Advanced" you can explicitly choose a working directory for the projects without changing the Jenkins home directory. Check the "Use custom workspace" box and set the directory that Jenkins will pull the code to and build in.
In our setup we wait for the build process to complete in the working directory and add a build step for Jenkins to copy (most) of the files out to the directory that serves up the website. We had issues with file locking preventing the build process if someone (e.g. the testers) were using the site.
One simple way to do it is to create a symlink under /var/www/html/ that points to your code directory, e.g.:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/"Code Deployement" /var/www/html/[project-name]
I have a project that when built from my machine everything runs smoothly. However, when I push my changes and try to generate the build using jenkins, I'm getting the library not found error message.
This is weird because if I login into the jenkins server and I try to do a manual build, everything works as expected, perfect. It's only when I build from withing jenkins that my build is failing.
I'm assuming LIBRARY_NAME as the name of whatever library, in my case is an internal static library.
Any suggestions?
EDIT:
I've setup: Library Search Headers, Other Linker Flags, Target Dependencies, Proper Architectures
I wrestled with this for three weeks until I accidentally stumbled onto this with the help of a coworker. Basically, you must be sure that the path structure created in your repository is replicated in the .jenkins workspace. To do this just be sure that in your project/job configuration in jenkins the Source Code Management > Subversion > Repository URL field must be at the same level as specified in jenkins in your script or Build > Execute Shell > Command field. So here are my settings as an example:
above Jenkins URL = https://myDuncwa.local/duncwa-repo
above Jenkins Build = "cd $WORKSPACE/mobileapps/projects/PictureBoard/trunk/PictureBoard" and line 2 "xcodebuild -project PictureBoard.xcodeproj" no quotes.
above Subversion URL repository = https://myDuncwa.local/duncwa-repo
This will cause the directory structure mobileapps/projects/PictureBoard in my repository to replicated in the .jenkins/jobs/PictureBoard/workspace/mobileapps/projects/PictureBoard directory that is created automatically by jenkins. Note: 1) This will copy the entire repository so be prepared to change this later and 2) .jenkins is a hidden directory created by the install in the installing user's home directory or "~/"
I have a shell script that runs lcov (test coverage) on an iOS project that I have Hudson. Hudson's copy of this project is derived from a Git repository. The way that I have set up now is that whenever the repo is updated or if someone manually builds the project in Hudson, Hudson would automatically run the app, and then run my shell script after the build is done. lcov can only be run after the app is not only built, but automatically run with some functional test tools. So, I cannot run the shell script as part of the build process, through XCode. It must be run after the app finishes building and running.
However, I would like to use this project in multiple Hudson jobs. Unfortunately, in each Hudson job, the iOS project is named differently. I would like to refer to the build path with some sort of environmental variable, but I don't know how to. Does anyone have any tips as to how to find that?
If I understand you correctly this is really a Hudson question. You can set "global variables" in your Hudson config and then invoke shell scripts, batch files, ant builds etc. You can also set them dynamically on each invocation of your Hudson job. Not sure exactly how to help you in your specific environment without more info.
