This change replaces the configuration variable with the hardcoded `https://conan.ripplex.io`, making it possible for PRs from forks to use our Conan remote containing workarounds.
This change updates some incorrect Conan commands for Conan 2. As some flags do not exist in Conan 2, such as --settings build_type=[configuration], the commands have been adjusted accordingly. This change further uses the org-level variables and secrets rather than the repo-level ones.
This change uploads built Conan dependencies to the Conan remote upon merge into the develop branch.
At the moment, whenever Conan dependencies change, we need to remember to manually push them to our Conan remote, so they are cached for future reuse. If we forget to do so, these changed dependencies need to be rebuilt over and over again, which can take a long time.
This change:
* Removes the patched Conan recipes from the `external/` directory.
* Adds instructions for contributors how to obtain our patched recipes.
* Updates the Conan remote name and remote URL (the underlying package repository isn't changed).
* If the remote already exists, updates the URL instead of removing and re-adding.
* This is not done for the libXRPL job as it still uses Conan 1. This job will be switched to Conan 2 soon.
* Removes duplicate Conan remote CI pipeline steps.
* Overwrites the existing global.conf on MacOS and Windows machines, as those do not run CI pipelines in isolation but all share the same Conan installation; appending the same config over and over bloats the file.
This change updates RocksDB to its latest version. RocksDB is backward-compatible, so even though this is a major version bump, databases created with previous versions will continue to function.
The external RocksDB folder is removed, as the latest version available via Conan Center no longer needs custom patches.
Before `XRPLF/ci` images, we did not have a `dependencies:` job for clang-16, so `instrumentation:` had to build its own dependencies. Now we have clang-16 Conan dependencies built in a separate job that can be used.
Remove `include(default)` from `conan/profiles/libxrpl`. This means that we will now rely on compiler workarounds stored elsewhere e.g. in global.conf.
This PR updates several dependencies to their latest versions. Not all dependencies have been updated, as some need to be patched and some require additional code changes due to backward incompatibilities introduced by the version bump.
Running unit tests in parallel and multiple threads can write into one file can corrupt output files, and then gcovr won't be able to parse the corrupted file. This change adds -fprofile-update=atomic as instructed by https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=68080.
The ci pipelines are constantly hitting Docker Hub's public rate limiting since increasing the number of jobs we're running. This change switches over to images hosted in GitHub's registry.
- PR #5228 added assert=TRUE and werr=TRUE CMake flags to the
build/action.yml script which is used by all CI jobs to build rippled,
ensuring those flags were always set. The assumption was that only the
CI jobs used that script, so any extra time cost was offset by the
benefit of the extra checks. That assumption was incorrect. That
script is used by other downstream projects. Therefore, those flags
have been moved into the individual CI jobs' "cmake-args" parameter
passed to build/action.yml. This will have the same effect for CI jobs
without any side effects.
- Rename the job in missing-commits.yml from "check" to "up_to_date",
because other jobs named "check" prevent merges, but this one should
not prevent merges. How else are branches going to get caught up?
- Move the job in instrumentation.yml to nix.yml, but keep it entirely
independent.
* Resolves an issue introduced in #5111, which inadvertently removed the
-Wno-maybe-uninitialized compiler option from some xrpl.libxrpl
modules. This resulted in new "may be used uninitialized" build
warnings, first noticed in the "protocol" module. When compiling with
derr=TRUE, those warnings became errors, which made the build fail.
* Github CI actions will build with the assert and werr options turned
on. This will cause CI jobs to fail if a developer introduces a new
compiler warning, or causes an assert to fail in release builds.
* Includes the OS and compiler version in the linux dependencies jobs in
the "check environment" step.
* Translates the `unity` build option into `CMAKE_UNITY_BUILD` setting.
* Rename ASSERT to XRPL_ASSERT
* Upgrade to Anthithesis SDK 0.4.4, and use new 0.4.4 features
* automatic cast to bool, like assert
* Add instrumentation workflow to verify build with instrumentation enabled
* Amend `.codecov.yml` to disable coverage reporting of test sources
and explicitly set most parameters
* Increase codecov upload retry time to 210s (from 35s)
* Upgrade gcovr adding support for more coverage formats (lcov, clover, jacoco)
* Upgrade github actions in coverage workflow
* Explicitly disable codecov plugins (also removing `gcov` coverage, which is not
correctly handled by codecov https://github.com/codecov/feedback/issues/334)
Github Actions for the build/test jobs (nix.yml, mac.yml, windows.yml) will only run on branches that build packages (develop, release, master), and branches with names starting with "ci/". This is intended as a compromise between disabling CI jobs on personal forks entirely, and having the jobs run as a free-for-all. Note that it will not affect PR jobs at all.
Update to #4849, using a workaround for spurious codecov upload errors.
Spurious codecov upload errors are expected in public repos which rely
on PRs via forks. Retrying uploads is a decent and easy workaround.
Update the nix CI runner. This commit does not modify any source code
files. The unix builds were successful, but the binaries were not
uploaded to the internal artifactory. This PR borrows an idea from
@ximinez to attempt to fix this issue.
After successful authentication, the `outcome` variable contains a
string. In the upload step, we are checking if outcome == 'success' as a
prerequisite for uploading the binary.
This commit updates the contents of the `outcome` variable.
Artifactory support was added to the `nix` builds with #4556. This
extends that support to the Windows build. Now the Windows build works;
CI will build and test a Windows release build. This only affects CI and
does not change any C++ code.
* Copy the remote setup step outcome fix from #4716 discussion
* Allow the Windows job to succeed if tests fail:
* Currently the tests do not always pass, even on a single threaded
run on the GitHub runners. So we are using parallel runs and mark
the test step as allowed to fail (continue-on-error).
* At this point, it's more important that the build succeeds than that
the tests succeed, because:
* We've got plenty of test coverage on the other jobs.
* Test failures are much rarer than build failures because of
cross-platform issues.
* Having a test failure locally doesn't interrupt a workflow nearly as
much as a build failure.
Note that Conan Center cannot hold the binaries we need. They do not
build the configurations we need, and they will not add them.
## Future Tasks
This introduces a new bottleneck since the build and test takes over an
hour. Speed up the job by:
* Making this job run on heavy Windows runners.
* Increasing the number of hardware threads.
There is now an Artifactory (thanks @shichengripple001 and team!) to
hold dependency binaries for the builds.
* Rewrite the `nix` workflow to use it and cut the time down to a mere
21 minutes.
* This workflow should continue to work (just more slowly) for forks
that do not have access to the Artifactory.
SOCI is the C++ database access library. The SOCI recipe was updated in
Conan Center Index (CCI), and it breaks for our choice of options. This
breakage occurs when you build with a fresh Conan cache (e.g. when you
submit a PR, or delete `~/.conan/data`).
* Add a custom Conan recipe for SOCI v4.0.3
* Update dependency building to handle exporting and installing Snappy
and SOCI
* Fix workflows to use custom SOCI recipe
* Update BUILD.md to include instruction for exporting the SOCI Conan
recipe:
* `conan export external/soci soci/4.0.3@`
This solution has been verified on Ubuntu 20.04 and macOS.
Context:
* There is a compiler error that the `sqlite3.h` header is not available
when building soci.
* When package B depends on package A, it finds the pieces it needs by
importing the Package Configuration File (PCF) that Conan generates
for package A.
* Read the CMake written by package B to check that it is importing
the PCF correctly and linking its exports correctly.
* Since this can be difficult, it is often more efficient to check
https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/issues for package B
to see if anyone else has seen a similar problem.
* One of the issues points to a problem area in soci's CMake. To
confirm the diagnosis, review soci's CMake (after any patches are
applied) in the Conan build directory `build/$buildId/src/`.
* Review the Conan-generated PCF in
`build/$buildId/build/$buildType/generators/`.
* In this case, the problem was likely (re)introduced by
https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/pull/17026
* If there is a problem in the source or in the Conan recipe, the
fastest fix is to copy the recipe and either:
* Add a source patch to fix any problems in the source.
* Change the recipe to fix any problems in the recipe.
* In this case, this can be done by finding soci's Conan recipe at
https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/tree/master/recipes/soci
and then copying the `all` directory as `external/$packageName` in our
project. Then, make any changes.
* Test packages can be removed from the recipe folder as they are not
needed.
* If adding a patch in the `patches` directory, add a description for
it to `conandata.yml`.
* Since `conanfile.py` has no `version` property on the recipe class,
builders need to pass a version on the command line (like they do
for our `snappy` recipe).
* Add an example command to `BUILD.md`.
Future work: It may make sense to refer to recipes by revision, by
checking in a lockfile.
This change makes progress on the plan in #4371. It does not replicate
the full [matrix] implemented in #3851, but it does replicate the 1.ii
section of the Linux matrix. It leverages "heavy" self-hosted runners,
and demonstrates a repeatable pattern for future matrices.
[matrix]: d794a0f3f1/.github/README.md (continuous-integration)
- Copies the recipe for Snappy from Conan Center, but removes three
lines that explicitly link the standard library, which prevents
builders from statically linking it.
- Removes the recipe for RocksDB now that an official recipe for version
6.27.3 is in Conan Center.
Developers will likely need to remove cached versions of both RocksDB
and Snappy:
```
conan remove -f rocksdb
conan remove -f snappy
```

* Set "fail-fast: false" so that multiple jobs in one workflow can
finish independently. By default, if one job fails, other running jobs
will be aborted, even if the other jobs are working fine and are
almost done. This leads to wasted time and resources if the failure
is, for example, OS specific, or due to a flaky unit test, and the
failed job needs to be re-run, because all the jobs end up re-running.
* Put conditions back into the windows.yml job (manual, and for
a specific branch name and that job). This prevents Github Actions
from sending "No jobs were run" failure emails on every commit.
Introduces a conanfile.py (and a Conan recipe for RocksDB) to enable building the package with Conan, choosing more recent default versions of dependencies. It removes almost all of the CMake build files related to dependencies, and the configurations for Travis CI and GitLab CI. A new set of cross-platform build instructions are written in BUILD.md.
Includes example GitHub Actions workflow for each of Linux, macOS, Windows.
* Test on macos-12
We use the <concepts> library which was not added to Apple Clang until
version 13.1.6. The default Clang on macos-11 (the sometimes current
version of macos-latest) is 13.0.0, and the default Clang on macos-12 is
14.0.0.
Closes#4223.
