Make it possible for plug in alternative protocol buffer compilers.
The compilers are picked up based on if they export all of the
functions key/0, proto_compile/3, proto_clean/3 and proto_info/2.
The set of compiler modules to choose from, is fetched from the rebar
application environment, from the app_dir modules.
A new config option, {proto_compiler,Compiler}, specifies which of
the available protocol buffer compilers to use. The 'protobuffs'
compiler is now one such compiler (the only one), and it is also the
default, for backwards compatibility.
- Use `cover' with QuickCheck testing
- Reuse the `cover_*' rebar.config options
- Refactor cover-related code to separate module (`qc_cover_utils')
for use with both `eunit' and `qc'
Always-on recursive application of all rebar commands causes too many
issues. Recursive application is required for:
1. dealing with dependencies: get-deps, update-deps, and compile of deps
right after get-deps or update-deps
2. projects with a riak-like apps/ project structure and dev process
The vast majority of projects are not structured like riak. Therefore,
moving forward it's best to (by default) restrict recursive behavior to
dealing with deps. This commit does that and also adds command line and
rebar.config options for controlling or configuring recursion. Also, we
introduce two meta commands: prepare-deps (equivalent to rebar -r
get-deps compile) and refresh-deps (equivalent to rebar -r update-deps
compile). riak-like projects can extend the list of recursive commands
(to include 'eunit' and 'compile') by adding
{recursive_cmds, [eunit, compile]} to rebar.config.
For now, this is just a proof of concept; would make sense to add a lot
of things, such as quick access to invoking rebar itself (with approproate
code reloading), as well as an eunit-aware version so that tests could be
run interactively.
To further support OTP releases I have added support for generating
application appup files. These include instructions that systools uses
to generate a relup file which contains the low level instructions
needed to perform a hot code upgrade. My goal with this module is to
produce "good enough" appup files or at least a skeleton to help one get
started with something more complex. If an appup file already exists for
an application this command will not attempt to create a new one.
Usage:
$ rebar generate-appups previous_release=/path/to/old/version
Generally this command will be run just before 'generate-upgrade'.
To support OTP release upgrades I have added support for building
upgrade packages. Support for this is included in the
rebar_upgrade module, specifically generate_upgrade/2. It requires
one variable to be set on the command line 'previous_release' which
is the absolute path or relative path from 'rel/' to the previous
release one is upgrading from. Running an upgrade will create the
needed files, including a relup and result in a tarball containing
the upgrade being written to 'rel/'. When done it cleans up the
temporary files systools created.
Usage:
$ rebar generate-upgrade previous_release=/path/to/old/version
This also includes a dummy application that can be used to test
upgrades as well as an example.
