| |
| Buildbot is an open source framework for automating software build, test run, and release. At Melange, we're using buildbot for these automations. The instructions are for a mint clean debian based machine, however due to various choices made in this page, the instructions shouldn't be a lot different for other distros. |

| $ wget https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py |
| $ sudo python get-pip.py |
| $ sudo pip install virtualenv |
| $ sudo apt-get update |
| $ sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev libexpat1-dev gettext libz-dev libssl-dev python-lxml python-dev |
| $ cd; mkdir buildbot; cd buildbot; |
| $ virtualenv venv; cd venv; . bin/activate |
| $ pip install buildbot buildbot-slave |
| $ buildbot create-master master |
| $ mv master/master.cfg.sample master/master.cfg |
| |
| # Let's see if the everything is in order as of now. |
| $ buildbot master start; tail -f master/twistd.log |
| # If the logs appear okay, we're good to go! |
| |
| # Let's create a slave, and see if it's running okay. |
| $ cd ~/venv; buildslave create-slave slave localhost:9989 example-slave pass |
| $ buildslave start slave; tail -f slave/twistd.log |
| # Again, If the logs appear okay, we're good to go! |

| |
| The next step involves copying the files from /configuration directory in melange project root, to the buildbot machine's master folder - ~/venv/master/ |
