[Buckminster headless] How to control buckminster workspace? [message #784417] Fri, 27 January 2012 08:44 Go to next message

Hi,

I currently have installed buckminster in a shared drive and I'm using -data to indicate the directory where to write the artifacts.
./buckminster -data <my/data/dir>



But I see that buckminster is creating a /tmp/buckminster/build dir and it's building the workspace there.
My buckminster.properties file looks like this:

# Where all the output should go
buckminster.output.root=/shared/drive
# Where the temp files should go
buckminster.temp.root=/shared/drive/hsp-site.tmp
# How .qualifier in versions should be replaced


But it doesn't look like buckminster is picking any of those properties up. (After 4 days of Buckminster, I still have many loose ends to understand)

Where/how should I indicate buckminster to use the share drive iso /tmp? Where is this /tmp dir coming from?

Hoping to have a working build today...

Many thanks,

Gerard.

I worked around this issue by providing the properties through the command line.
-Dbuckminster.output.root=/shared/drive/workspace -Dbuckminster.temp.root=/shared/drive/workspace/tmp

Not sure this is the recommended way, but it seems to work. Still wondering where the /tmp comes from if anybody feels like shinning some light on that point.

-kr, Gerard.

IIRC you can tell headless buckminster which property file you want to
use rather than setting each property.

It is common to use different sets of properties for building in the IDE
and headless.

Hi Henrik,

Thanks for that.
How should I instruct headless buckminster to use a given property file?

-kr, Gerard.

The isntructions are in the BuckyBook (see the chapter on "Headless commands"). Most commands can take a --properties (or -P) option.

Note that you specify this on an individual buckminster command, not on the shell command that calls buckminster.

Use -P <property file>
