TubeTK/Dashboard Scripts

Overview

TubeTK uses a novel configuration-file based method for installing dashboard machines. In general, you will perform an initial download of TubeTK, copy an example configuration file to the level above the TubeTK source, edit that file as appropriate, and then setup cron jobs to call script files that are distributed with TubeTK and that are controlled by your configuration file.

TubeTK's current dashboard is available at: http://open.cdash.org/index.php?project=TubeTK

Tutorial

Assuming that your top-level dashboard directory is call "Dashboards" this tutorial assumes that you want a directory structure with the following hierarchy

 Dashboards/TubeTK
 Dashboards/TubeTK-${BUILD_TYPE}

where ${BUILD_TYPE} is one of Release, Debug, RelWithDebInfo, ...

Background

• You must have CMake 2.8.8 or greater installed to run a TubeTK dashboard system.
  • CMake downloads
• You must have Qt 4.7 or greater installed to compile TubeTK
  • Qt downloads
• This tutorial assumes you have some knowledge of CMake and CTest

Checkout a new TubeTK for your dashboard

> cd Dashboards
> git clone git://tubetk.org/TubeTK.git

Initialize local configuration file

The configuration file "<MachineName>_TubeTK.cmake" belongs at the top of the Dashboards directory. For example,

Dashboards/MyMachine_TubeTK.cmake

Linux

> cp TubeTK/CMake/DashboardScripts/TubeTK_CDashClient_Linux.cmake MyMachine_TubeTK.cmake

Note that a single configuration file can control Nightly, Continuous, and Experimental build options.

Windows

> cp TubeTK/CMake/DashboardScripts/tubetk_config.cmake-windows MyMachine_TubeTK.cmake

Edit local configuration file

The file has two parts. The first part contains commonly changed variables. The second part is for advanced users only.

Setup cron job

Linux

crontab -l

0 23  *  *  *  /home/kitware/Dashboards/cmake-2.8.8/bin/ctest -V -VV -S /home/kitware/Dashboards/MyMachine_TubeTK.cmake -O /home/kitware/Dashboards/MyMachine_TubeTK.log

Windows

Edit the two bat files that include the necessary vcvars.bat files for Visual Studio to work:

edit Dashboards/tubetk_nightly_windows.bat 

Setup "Scheduled Jobs" to execute those batch files.
