h1. _Nightly_ Builds

sysmocom has setup nightly Debian/Ubuntu source package builds for the current master version of the Osmocom GSM related software. 

*NOTE: USE NIGHTLY BUILDS ONLY FOR DEVELOPMENT/TESTING*.  The [[Latest_Builds]] are a more stable alternative.

Starting from March 18, 2016, there are daily builds for

* Debian 8 (i586, amd64)

* Debian 9 (i586, amd64, armv7l, aarch64)

* Debian testing (amd64)

* Debian unstable (amd64)

* Raspbian 9 (armv7l)

* xUbuntu 16.04 (i586, amd64)

* xUbuntu 18.04 (i586, amd64)

* xUbuntu 18.10 (i586, amd64)

* xUbuntu 19.10 (amd64)

The Osmocom jenkins will build source packages once a day and upload them to the Open(SUSE) Build Service (OBS). 

The OBS page is at https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/network:osmocom:nightly

A nice status overview on the builds is available at https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor/network:osmocom:nightly

h2. How to use the _osmocom:nightly_ builds

The download repositories are at:

* http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/Debian_8.0/

* http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/Debian_9.0/

* http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/Debian_10.0/

* http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/Debian_Testing/

* http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/Debian_Unstable/

* http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/Raspbian_10.0/

* http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/xUbuntu_16.04/

* http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/xUbuntu_18.04/

* http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/xUbuntu_18.10/

* http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/xUbuntu_19.04/

For example, adding the repository to your Debian 9 system:

<pre>

sudo su

wget https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/Debian_9.0/Release.key 

sha256sum Release.key

=> cbb03d32d144d45ba654ff9ed16361218d224a1bdffbdf2832c48e796b955aa8

apt-key add Release.key

rm Release.key

echo "deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/osmocom:/nightly/Debian_9.0/ ./" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/osmocom-nightly.list

apt-get update

exit

</pre>

h2. How are those builds created?

See https://jenkins.osmocom.org/jenkins/job/Osmocom_nightly_packages/ for corresponding build job.

The script at http://git.osmocom.org/osmo-ci/tree/scripts/osmocom-nightly-packages.sh is used to

* obtain a current clone of the respective git repository

* check out the current master in that repository

* build debian source packages

* upload them to the OBS *network:osmocom:nightly* sub-project.

It's possible to reproduce the nightly builds locally using

<pre>

osc co

osc build

</pre>

To test local changes with one can create local packages the same way jenkins job above does:

<pre>

gbp buildpackage -S -uc -us --git-ignore-new --git-export-dir=/tmp

</pre>

and than repeat build steps outlined above for local build.

h2. E-Mail Notifications of build failures

Build failure notifications are sent to the "gerrit-log mailing list":https://lists.osmocom.org/mailman/listinfo/gerrit-log
