Multiple instances of the same issues in Trello Backlog

There are multiple instances of the same issues in Trello Backlog, such as

[argos3d_p100_ros_pkg] #7 Publish amplitudes as image

ansible: ros_user always sets password

We should NOT set the password if the user exists.

trello sync - Cleanup, logging

Clean the sync script ready to be deployed to cron or jenkins.

• Sort the logging to be less noisey, so happy under cron.
• Command line arg for where to find the config file.
• Some basic docs on the sync procedure.
• Code review.

Convert Jenkins Setup to Ansible

gitghub-trello-sync - Re-opened tickets

Currently if an issue is closed and the re-opened we will create a new card in trello leaving the old archived card that was linked orphaned. This happens because we only query for open/not-archived issues and cards.
Not a big issue but a bit messy!

Probably don't want to be querying for all tickets on every run, only open issues keeps the working set (and http requests) to a sensible size. One way to fix this would be store the trello card id on the github issue (e.g. stashed in the description), could then use that to query for the archived card direct.

Stiff Flop config

Convert user setup to puppet

Convert the prototype bash scripts to puppet modules.

Clean up sync mess (sr_utils)

When a new repo gets added but not added to the trello team on github, the sync keeps adding cards over and over to backlog. sr_utils 1 and 2 have done this. No multi select in trello so need a quick clean up script.

Test sync new cards first

Sync User can not see other github users

The user used for the sync can only see it's self on giithub. The call:

for m in github_org.get_members():

Returns only the sync user. When run as myself (admin user) I see all the org members.

Indigo base image

Need a base image for Indigo, which will also mean using Trusty.

Sync github user can't update issues

The user setup for sync doesn't seem able to update issues, despite having perms to read and write those repo. Error logged:

[2014-02-07 12:20:44,946] ERROR - Card 52f3931266d34a1021421646: 404 {u'documentation_url': u'http://developer.github.com/v3', u'message': u'Not Found'}
[2014-02-07 12:20:45,367] ERROR - Card 52f39c72e185c99b440e9998: 404 {u'documentation_url': u'http://developer.github.com/v3', u'message': u'Not Found'}

Trying to update the labels (issue.edit(...)) triggers this. Works ok when using my login (an admin user).

Decide on Puppet vs Chef vs Ansible

Developer machines

Machines with ansible setup to install the source code into the users workspace.

Network setup for shared folders so people can work easily against the machine. E.g. share home. Should work for mac and win host machines ie use samba.

Create ROS base image.

Hello Trello 1

Lock file for trello sync

Needs a lock (pid) file so it only one sync can run at a time. Makes it safe to kick from command line with cron active.

Work out best way to run ethercat from a Virtual Box machine

To run virtual machines against the hand or a ronex we need to be able to access it over ethercat. Pretty sure the normal virtual network adapters wont support this (needs a test). It may be possible using a PCI pass through of the network card. If so what is supported hardware needed to make this work.

Add ros_packages to ros_install role.

Add a variable to install additional ROS packages along with the main ros install. e.g.

ros_release: 'hydro'
ros_packages:
  - 'shadow-robot-ethercat'
  - 'shadow-robot'

Would install ros-hydro-shadow-robot and ros-hydro-shadow-robot-ethercat along with the main ros packages.

Will be in ansible/roles/ros_install/tasks/main.yml

vm should auto-login

Setup private ansible repo

Private repo for internal machine setups. Runs on minaton. We still develop all common roles etc in sr-build-tools, the private anasible will be configured to use a checkout of sr-build-tools and just contains the sensitive details like internal network setups.

Share workspace

Makes it possible to mount it from host for easy development on the vm.

Sync Bug label

If issue is marked with Bug then so should the Trello card.

Test new card sets label and stuff

Hello

Simplify machine names and tree

Use following tree

vagrant/
 dev/
    hand
    ronex
 hand
 ronex
 experimental/
    hand-indigo-trusty64
production/
   hand

Make shared_folder more generic

Currently hardcoded to ros_worksapce but should be made to just take a list of folders from config. Like:

shared_folders:
  - ~ros/workspace

Convert existing jenkins scripts to puppet.

We have some scripts for setting up Jenkins slaves. Convert these to puppet so we can then create slave machines.

Trello Test 1

Does this appear?

Move background and font setting to ros_user role.

Currently the background image and monospace font get set in site playbook for hand-demo-64 (ansible/vagrant_site.yml). Move these options to ros_user role. e.g.

ros_user_background: 'files/images/ShadowRobot-smaller.jpg_1280x1280.jpg'
ros_user_monospace_font: 'Ubunti Mono 11'

Delete the autologin lines from lightdm.conf if autologin is false

basically the opposite of these:

- name: Set autologin user to {{ros_user}}
  when: ros_user_autologin
  lineinfile: dest=/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf line="autologin-user={{ros_user}}"

- name: Set autologin to true
  when: ros_user_autologin
  lineinfile: dest=/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf line="autologin-user-timeout=0"

add conky with ip address + few stats

Makes it easy to connect to the vm

ar_pose install repeatability

In glass bot the install of ar_pose will fail on 2nd run due to rosws set failing for existing entry.

rosws: error: Element {'git': {'local-name': 'ar_tools', 'uri': 'https://github.com/LucidOne/ar_tools.git'}} already exists, did you mean --detached ?

Needs a work around.

Change hand-demo-64 machine to use packages not source

Do #39 first. Then should be able to add the packages and not install a workspace. May need to tweak some of the desktop files installed.

Note the the hand-hydro-precide64 machine still runs a workspace src based build.

Close the issue on github if moving to "Done" in Trello

Find better way to handle cloning private repos

In glassbot we are using a ssh auth sock pass through trick to access the private repos. When we have internal ansible we should be able to handle this a bit better. e.g. store credentials in a vault and use direct instead of needing loaded keys.

See comments on #48

Done List

Instead of archive move cards to Done list. Then we can see where we are at the end of the week. At start of sprint we check the list and then archive it.

Will also make #8 less of a problem, as a close re-open will work while the closed ticket is on the Done list. Sync should move it back to Current.

Sticky bit for shared workspaces

We create ros workspaces with group ros but need to also set the sticky bit so it works right with multiple users in group ros.

Convert hand test machine to puppet

Existing gazebo hand running test machine needs converting to a puppet manifest from the existing shell script.

Setup private network for easy communication VM-host

For dev machines only.

Make RoNeX Machine

• Make a new machine
• Add ronex packages
• Add ronex user
• Ronex background image
• Network setup for ethercat and how that works in a vm

Convert hand machine to ansible

Converting the existing shell script built test machine to ansible. Can then form the basis of the other machines we need to create.

trello sync - deploy

Deploy script to cron job on minaton or jenkins job.

• Setup user on github for automation.
• Set up user on trello to use for automation.
• Generate long lasting trello api key and token with this user and add to config.
• Deploy code.
• Add wiki pages to internal wiki with details.
