Misadventures in CI

- 3 mins read

Yesterday I spent many, many hours fighting with getting projects setup with CI.

For the Elixir physics engine I’m breaking ground on, I need to setup my usual library infrastructure.

For me, I consider the “bare minimum” for developing a library for other people to be:

  1. Master should pass tests at all times
  2. 100% test coverage
  3. 100% docs coverage of all APIs
  4. Proper SemVer
  5. Minimum external dependencies if at all possible–easier with mathy stuff

The first three are what cost me hours of my life yesterday.

Adding a blog aggregator

After a lot of work today, I’ve gotten RSS feed generation implemented for my blog.

I then retooled a VPS I had lying around (apparently hoarding machines happens to my accounts as well as my apartment…) and threw on Ubuntu.

This was then setup to do basic file serving and most of the usual lockdown I do for my serves; a good test run, since I’ll be doing a workshop on accomplishing exactly this while at Recurse Center. :)
