  1. ==============================================
  2. Running a GTK+ build slave under daemontools
  3. ==============================================
  4. This directory contains several scripts which can be used to run a WebKitGTK+
  5. build slave under daemontools [1]. This is convenient because daemontools
  6. will automatically restart services when they die, and that means less human
  7. intervention is needed.
  8. Dependencies
  9. ============
  10. In order to use the provided service control files, you will need the
  11. following:
  12. * The GNU Bash shell (the scripts contain some bash-isms)
  13. * The daemontools package (or one of its drop-in replacements, like runit
  14. or freedt; but only daemontools has been tested so far).
  15. In short, in a Debian-based system you can ensure you have the needed bits
  16. with the following command:
  17. apt-get install daemontools-run
  18. Setup
  19. =====
  20. 1. Follow the instructions at http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildBot
  21. 2. Install the dependencies outlined above.
  22. 3. Copy "daemontools-buildbot.conf" to "/etc/daemontools-buildbot.conf"
  23. 4. Edit the configuration file to suit your needs, the comments should
  24. be self-explanatory.
  25. 5. Drop the "buildbot" and "pulseaudio" directories to the service control directory of
  26. daemontools; for Debian-based setups that would be "/etc/service"
