Add Command to Pull Latest Code from Repository about roxy HOT 3 CLOSED

Gary,

Would you be running the ml command from within the directory that gets updated from the svn checkout? Seems like it could be a potential chicken and egg problem.

Also, are you using a command line version of svn or vss? Roxy would need to invoke command line versions. svn is no problem on *nix systems or with cygwin or even if you install the svn command line in windows.

Some shops will want to automate the source code repository retrieval process.

Can you please add a new command to retrieve the latest code from an SVN and VSS repository?

Example:

ml local getsvn
ml local getvss

Example build.properties for SVN:

svn-url=svn+ssh://[email protected]/project
svn-user=guest
svn-passwd=password

Example build.properties for VSS:

vss-dir=\avalon\VSS\VSS_LSP
vss-user=guest
vss-passwd=password

I was planning to run the ml command from the roxy root directory. The ml command would then update the ${basedir}/src directory. But I agree. It will be a potential chicken and egg problem. You can ignore this request. Thanks for the quick response.

Gary,

There are some other options to consider.. Right now if you put the unix version of ml somewhere in your path you can do this:

ml new project-name

and it will download the roxy code from github and create a new project for you. I haven't gotten around to adding it to the windows batch file yet.

Your request isn't crazy. Despite the chicken/egg problem, if you already have the code and you just want to update it then it would work.

Alternatively, there is a file $dir/deploy/app_specific.rb where you can put custom ruby code that can be called like the other functions. you could put the svn vss stuff in there as a "one off" for your project.

If you are still interested I am happy to assist.
