Description (last modified by mojca (Mojca Miklavec))
We need to look into updating to buildbot 2.x, which requires updating our buildbot master.cfg and testing the builds.
This depends on having buildbot 2.x in the ports tree, see #53006.

Mojca, Rajdeep, and I have been talking about this over email. I have a buildbot 2 server running now, doing mainly fake builds, while I work out how I want it all configured. Much of the buildbot 0.8 configuration has not been migrated yet.

Any progress on this?
While the upgrade as a whole would certainly be awesome, I'm particularly interested in OAUTH integration - and ultimately being able to use GitHub authentication - per issue:52455
comment:6 Changed 3 years ago by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)
Nothing to report. I did not complete a buildbot 2 configuration last year and have not been motivated to revisit it since then because buildbot 0.8 works for us while later versions have been redesigned and both the new back-end and the new web UI experienced extreme hangs (at 100% CPU usage for a very long time) in my testing, not to mention that they removed the waterfall web UI upon which I almost exclusively rely. GitHub authentication is not possible with Buildbot 0.8.

Just curious, was the waterfall view eliminated as of v3.x?
comment:8 Changed 3 years ago by mojca (Mojca Miklavec)
Waterfall has been radically changed in version 0.9 already. It wasn't eliminated, but it's significantly different now, and the sample setup that we came up with now uses a separate virtual builder for every port and Ryan wasn't happy about that. (Without a separate virtual port one has no clue what exactly is being built since the labels on waterfall are gone now.)
comment:9 Changed 3 years ago by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)
The old waterfall view was eliminated. A new view called waterfall was added that behaves differently and shows less information. When all builders were busy, the waterfall view caused Safari to use 100% CPU and become unresponsive until the builds finished, rendering it useless for being able to see what's going on. In addition, the introduction of the virtual builders brings new complications; it now becomes difficult to see what a particular builder is doing.

I want to try this out. I know that Rajdeep worked on this; I see he has a repository with a buildbot 2 configuration last modified 14 months ago. Is that the most recent work on this? Is there anything else I need to know before checking out that repo and trying to follow the instructions?
