In our project we are using a proprietary product which contains its own custom ant executable to build the deployment artifact.
So, we have two build files 'build-artifcat.xml' and 'build.xml'.
Here,
'build-artifcat.xml' - contains ant targets which can be executed with this products custom ant executable.
'build.xml' - contains ant targets which can be executed by Apache Ant.
We are using Bamboo CICD tool and this tool provides facility to execute only Apache Ant targets.
So, we are planning to use task to invoke ant targets from 'build-artifcat.xml' using this products custom ant executable.
I found below code while checking older projects but here I am not sure how can I specify the target to be executed from from 'build-artifcat.xml'.
Can you please help.
<target name="buildArtifact">
<echo>Running ant exec: ${run.custom.ant.exec}</echo>
<exec dir="${run.ant.exec.dir}" executable="${run.custom.ant.exec}" error="${basedir}/${error.log.file}">
<arg value="-f" />
<arg file="${basedir}/build-artifcat.xml" />
<arg value="-DimportDir=${import.location}" />
<arg value="-DartifactDir=${artifact.dir}" />
<arg value="-data" />
<arg value="${temp.workspace}" />
<arg value="-vmargs" />
<arg value="-Xmx1024m -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -XX:HeapDumpPath=./crashes/my-heap-dump.hprof -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCDateStamps -Xloggc:./crashes/gc.log" />
<arg value="-verbose" />
</exec>
</target>

I am using Apache Ant for my builds. I have some composer scripts belonging to several vendors in vendor/bin folder. I have added this folder to the system path and if I run the commands on my command window in works but in the build file i get an error.
Is there anything I should be doing differently? Before is an example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project name="MyProject" default="build" basedir=".">
<target name="phpcpd" description="Find duplicate code using PHPCPD">
<exec executable="phpcpd">
<arg value="--version" />
</exec>
</target>
</project>'
I get this when I run ant phpcpd
phpcpd:

But phpcpd --version works on command prompt
ANT is not aware where phpcpd is as it doesn't share path with your Command Promt.
One way around it is to create a .bat file to run phpcpd
Create a phpcpd.bat with the following:
#echo off
phpcpd --version
Your build scripts to be updated from :
<exec executable="phpcpd">
<arg value="--version" />
</exec>
To: <exec executable="phpcpd.bat"/>
Above assumed with Windows Command Promt
My solution was to use the .phar files of the scripts. That way, the build file became platform independent to a large extent. So
<target name="phpcpd" description="Find duplicate code using PHPCPD">
<exec executable="phpcpd">
<arg value="--version" />
</exec>
</target>
Became:
<target name="phpcpd" description="Find duplicate code using PHPCPD">
<exec executable="php">
<arg value="${phpcpd}" />
<arg value="--version" />
</exec>
</target>
Where ${phpcpd} is the path to the phar file
I'm using absolute paths and a configurable executable.properties like this:
build.xml
<project name="build">
<property file="executable.properties" />
<target name="run-phpcd" unless="${phpcpd.skip}">
<exec executable="${phpcpd.executable}"><!-- .. --></exec>
</target>
</project>
executable.dist.properties
phpcpd.skip = no
#phpcpd.executable = C:\path\to\phpcpd.bat
phpcpd.executable = /path/to/phpcpd.sh
Both files can be committed to your VCS, for usage copy the template file (*.dist.properties) and rename it to executable.properties. Add this file to the ignore list of your VCS.
Currently trying to get JSCover to exclude js files that are used as libraries. I have a set of ant scripts below which will
start the JSCover server
Run & Generate Json report
Stop the server
Finally, i have a shell command to convert the Json file to LCov so that i can use it with sonarqube. I also get coverage in jscoverage.html but it includes every file under web/ which is something i do not want. Image below
Ant scripts below:
<target name="jstest-start">
<java jar=".../JSCover.jar" fork="true" spawn="true">
<arg value="-ws"/>
<arg value="--report-dir=coverage"/>
<arg value="--document-root=web"/>
<arg value="--port=8082"/>
<!-- Aim is to exclude folder js under web/ as it contains libraries, not source code. Currently does not work -->
<arg value="--no-instrument=web/js/"/>
<arg value="--no-instrument=js/"/>
</java>
<waitfor maxwait="5" maxwaitunit="second" checkevery="250" checkeveryunit="millisecond" timeoutproperty="failed">
<http url="http://localhost:8082/jscoverage.html"/>
</waitfor>
<fail if="failed"/>
</target>
<target name="jstest-run">
<exec dir="/usr/local/CI/phantomjs/bin/" executable="phantomjs" failonerror="true">
<arg line=".../run-jscover-qunit.js http://localhost:8082/index.html"/>
</exec>
</target>
<target name="jstest-stop">
<get src="http://localhost:8082/stop" dest="stop.txt" />
</target>
<target name="jstest" description="Run javascript tests">
<antcall target="jstest-start"/>
<antcall target="jstest-run"/>
<antcall target="jstest-stop"/>
</target>
My folder structure is:
And finally, my sonar standalone analysis settings:
So, what seems to be happening is that JSCover is recursively reading for all js files and i cannot prevent that from sonar or ant.
Can anyone shed some light?
<arg value="--no-instrument=/js/"/>
should work, and to remove the test itself,
<arg value="--no-instrument=/test/"/>
The paths are as seen by the web-server, so the 'web' prefix in:
<arg value="--no-instrument=web/js/"/>
has no effect.
i have resolved my own issue by correcting the shell command which generates an LCOV report.
java -cp JSCover.jar jscover.report.Main --format=LCOV /usr/local/CI/jenkins/workspace/PhantomJS/coverage/phantom/ /usr/local/CI/jenkins/workspace/PhantomJS/web/
Prior to this, the SRC-DIR and REPORT-DIR were the same which was an error on my part. As far as i can understand, SRC-DIR should point to the source folder and REPORT-DIR should point to where the lcov file exists.
I hope this helps someone
I'm working on modifying our existing Selenium Grid setup so that it will work with Selenium 2. The process of setting up the hub and nodes seems to be much simpler, but I'm having a problem getting it running in an Ant build the way I did before.
I've read through the wiki on Selenium 2 Grid and tried to set up the Ant build accordingly. My problem is that the first target runs, starting the hub. Then, the other targets do not run, but the build completes. I'm attempting to run these on my own machine, with Selenium 1 (RC) Junit tests, and TestNG as a test runner.
The targets I have are as follows:
<taskdef resource="testngtasks" classpath="testng-${testng.version}.jar" />
<target name="start-hub" description="Start the Selenium Grid hub">
<java classpathref="runtime.classpath"
jar="${basedir}/selenium-server-standalone-${server.version}.jar"
fork="true"
spawn="true">
<arg value="-v" />
<arg value="-role" />
<arg value="hub" />
</java>
</target>
<target name="start-node"
description="Start the Selenium Grid node"
depends="start-hub">
<java classpathref="runtime.classpath"
jar="${basedir}/selenium-server-standalone-${server.version}.jar"
fork="true"
spawn="true">
<arg value="-role" />
<arg value="rc" />
<arg value="-hub" />
<arg value="http://localhost:4444/grid/register" />
<arg value="-port" />
<arg value="5555" />
<arg value="-browser" />
<arg value="browserName=firefox,version=3.6,maxInstances=5,platform=WINDOWS"/>
</java>
</target>
<target name="run-tests" description="Run the tests" depends="start-node">
<testng classpathref="runtime.classpath"
haltonfailure="true">
<sysproperty key="java.security.policy"
file="${grid.location}/lib/testng.policy" />
<arg value="testng.xml"/>
</testng>
</target>
It seems like the Ant thread is finished after the first target runs. I looked at a way to start them in a new window, like the previous grid, but I didn't see a way to do that except for the exec task. I also tried running the hub in an exec task and the node as a java task. That resulted in the ant build stopping execution after the start-hub target as opposed to finishing.
Is there a way I can get this running, or is there a better way to accomplish it?
Take a look at the way the Mozilla team does it here:
https://github.com/mozilla/moz-grid-config
Note that they're still using the Grid 1 node launchers, since Grid 2 is backwards-compatible in that respect. But it should give you an idea of how to handle this in ant.
What is the quickest way to deploy content to a CDN with an Ant target? My Ant target is running on a continuous integration server (Hudson). My current solution uses curl and is a bit slow. Should I use wput or something else and how would I do that in ant?
<target name="Deploy">
<for param="file">
<path>
<fileset dir="${basedir}/output" includes="**/*"/>
</path>
<sequential>
<echo> Deploy #{file} </echo>
<exec executable="curl">
<arg value="-F name=value"/> <!-- params for secure access -->
<arg value= "-F file=#{file}"/>
<arg value="http://cdn.com/project"/>
</exec>
</sequential>
</for>
</target>
Several ideas have come up to speed up the transfer of content to the cdn
1) max out the pipe bandwidth by using the parallel ant task to simultaneously transfer several mutually exclusive filesets. For example, if there are three sub-folders in the output folder, each can be given to a different parallel task, and each would iterate through the files, calling curl on each file to transfer it to the cdn. http://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/parallel.html
2) write a custom ant task (bash script?) that would have local knowledge about the build so that any files that were changed by the last build get marked and only those files would be transfered. This would prevent sending a file that is already on the cdn.
3) read the remote directory from the cdn and use timestamps to determine which files to send. This may not be possible depending on the cdn and whether it allows such queries. I was hoping wput could do this but I don't see an option for that. http://wput.sourceforge.net/wput.1.html
RESOLVED
I found a blog titled "Deploying assets to Amazon S3 with Ant" which was extremely helpful. It uses a python script 's3cmd sync' which only transfers files that don’t exist at the destination.
I ended up with this ant target:
<target name="s3Upload">
<property name="http.expires" value="Fri, 31 Dec 2011 12:00:00 GMT" />
<exec executable="${PYTHON_DIR}\python.exe" failonerror="true">
<arg value="${PYTHON_DIR}\Scripts\s3cmd" />
<arg value="--guess-mime-type" />
<arg value="--add-header=Cache-Control:public, max-age=630657344" />
<arg value="--add-header=Expires:${http.expires}" />
<arg value="--encoding=UTF-8" />
<arg value="--skip-existing" />
<arg value="--recursive" />
<arg value="--exclude=*.log" />
<arg value="--acl-public" />
<arg value="sync" />
<arg value="${CDN_DIR}/" />
<arg value="s3://my-project-cdn/" />
</exec>
</target>
I am using JAXB on a project. the attraction of JAXB is that it is bundled with the JDK, I have been to use xjc.exe on the command line to generate the .java files from a schema. I can't seem to find the JAXB ant task, sure there is a download at http://jaxb.java.net however i want to use the JAXB that is bundled into the JDK is there some way to call JAXB from ant what class does the xjc.exe call on?
<target name="generate-jaxb-code">
<java classname="com.sun.tools.internal.xjc.XJCFacade">
<arg value="-p" />
<arg value="com.example"/>
<arg value="xsd/sample.xsd" />
</java>
</target>
Just went hunting in the tools.jar and found the XJCFacade.class in com.sun.tools.internal tested the above code it works it produces the output as xjc.exe It seems that XJC.exe calls this code com.sun.tools.internal.xjc.XJCFacade
One of my key requirements was that the ant file had work within eclipse without having to include a path name to the JDK that way the file would be portable across operating systems. I am assuming that tools.jar is included on the classpath via the installed JRE preferences options.
Here is a helpful link:
https://jaxb.java.net/nonav/2.0.2/docs/xjcTask.html
Java SE 6 does not ship the Ant task (see 7.1.3):
https://jaxb.java.net/guide/Migrating_JAXB_2_0_applications_to_JavaSE_6.html
Essentially they do the following:
<target name="xjc" description="....">
<exec executable="${jdk.dir}/bin/xjc.exe">
<arg value="-d"/>
<arg value="${src.dir}"/>
<arg value="-p"/>
<arg value="com.mydomain.jaxb"/>
<arg value="${etc.dir}/myschema.xsd"/>
</exec>
</target>
