The YAML config for paths and modules of external packages has
changed: the new format allows a single spec to load multiple
modules. Spack will automatically convert from the old format
when reading the configs (the updates do not add new essential
properties, so this change in Spack is backwards-compatible).
With this update, Spack cannot modify existing configs/environments
without updating them (e.g. “spack config add” will fail if the
configuration is in a format that predates this PR). The user is
prompted to do this explicitly and commands are provided. All
config scopes can be updated at once. Each environment must be
updated one at a time.
This PR moves build smoke tests from TravisCI and migrates them to Github Actions. The result is that build tests are performed in parallel with unit tests and they don't hog additional resources on Travis. The workflow will not run if a PR only changes packages in the built-in repository, but will always run on pushes to develop or master.
* Removed build tests from Travis and passed them to Github Actions
* Store ~/.ccache in Github Actions cache
* Add filters on paths and make sure this workflow don't run
* Use paths-ignore and exclude only files in the built-in repo
* Added a badge to README.md
- This should speed-up Travis CI tests and refers to #5049
- Travis uses build-stages to group tests together
- The idea is to let fast tests fail first, then move to longer ones.
- Added external perl to avoid download failure from CPAN and reduce build time
- Disabling perl-dbi: continues to fail with (504 Gateway Time-out) on Travis
- We now cover all the build systems in tests:
- Add back `openblas` to Travis as a separate package.
- Switched `openblas` for `astyle` to build a simpler MakefilePackage.
- Added 'tut' (WafPackage)
- Added 'py-setuptools' (PythonPackage)
- Added 'perl-dbi' (PerlPackage)
- Added 'build_systems' directory to the ones for which we get a summary
- Added 'openjpeg' (CMakePackage)
- Added 'r-rcpp' (RPackage)
- Added comments to build tests to show the covered build system
