| ## Minutes | ||
|
|
||
| ### Create subteams to document release/infra/github-bot access [#826](https://github.com/nodejs/build/issues/826) | ||
|
|
||
| - Gibson: worried about things getting out of sync | ||
| - Michael: Github teams are private though | ||
| - Gibson: Yeah, not the best solution | ||
| - Rodd: How about we put it in the Readme | ||
| - Refael: Or maybe the wiki, it’s easier to update | ||
| - Gibson: So giving someone access usually involves an issue or a request, so we | ||
| could make that request a PR. | ||
| - All: Sounds good | ||
| - Action: Gibson to PR changes to Readme. | ||
| - João: I think there’s already one for github-bot, so that should be fine. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Demo KeyBox at next WG Meeting [#806](https://github.com/nodejs/build/issues/806) | ||
|
|
||
| - Gibson: We should probably postpone | ||
| - Rod: Sure, but worried that if it misses a few meetings it’ll get lost | ||
| - Michael: We could have a separate meeting | ||
| - Gibson: Maybe same time one of the other weeks | ||
| - Rod: How about we wait till next time, and then if it’s missed next week we | ||
| can arrange a special meeting. | ||
| - All: Sounds good. | ||
|
|
||
| ### tools: add download testing [#804](https://github.com/nodejs/build/pull/804) | ||
|
|
||
| - Gibson: Mostly wanted to discuss where this stuff should go. | ||
| - Rod: I really like this method (clone build repo, run script) | ||
| - Gibson: That’s what we’re doing internally and it works really well. | ||
| - Gibson: So maybe put in in `jenkins/` to prepare for other Jenkins scripts? | ||
| - All: sounds good | ||
| - Rod: What else might go in there. | ||
| - Gibson: That ties neatly into the next topic | ||
|
|
||
| ### Migrate job configuration to pipeline files [#838](https://github.com/nodejs/build/issues/838) | ||
|
|
||
| - Gibson: Would be good to get stuff out of the config.xml Jenkins files and | ||
| into Github | ||
| - Michael: Could you quickly cover the benefits of pipelines | ||
| - Gibson: Basically write your config as a Groovy file, rather than as options | ||
| in the GUI. It should also allow a lot more flexibility. | ||
| - Michael: Would it allow us to condense our scripts more (fewer pipelines than | ||
| jobs, e.g. the “npm test a module” jobs) | ||
| - Gibson: Yes, it should do that. | ||
| - Rod: I really like the idea in principle, but in practice I’ve found pipelines | ||
| a pain, and not particularly flexible, they seem like something bolted on | ||
| afterwards. We don’t want to get stuck with a suboptimal solution. | ||
| - All: Yep, let’s take it gradually. | ||
| - Gibson: We should try with one of the smaller WG projects, maybe the n-api CI | ||
| job that Refael is working on. | ||
| - All: Sounds good. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Jenkins update requiring Java 8 [#775](https://github.com/nodejs/build/issues/775) | ||
|
|
||
| - Rod: So at the moment we’re stuck on this version of Jenkins until we can get | ||
| all our machines on Java 8. I’ve upgraded some but it’s hard going. This might | ||
| also impact our ability to switch to pipelines. Is this going to be a | ||
| permanent thing? | ||
| - Gibson: George Adams has experience with this, he updated all the | ||
| [AdoptOpenJDK](https://github.com/AdoptOpenJDK/openjdk-infrastructure) | ||
| machines to Java 8, and they work with a similar set of machines. I know | ||
| George has been keen to contribute to our Build WG, so maybe some of the | ||
| Ansible updates made there could be ported over if applicable. | ||
| - Rodd: Sounds good. It’s possible pipelines are all plugin based, and don’t | ||
| really depend on having the latest Jenkins anway. | ||
| - Gibson: Either way we need to block out a time, or organise tasks that need | ||
| doing, or have a hack day, to deal with this, it’s a major chunk of work. | ||
