In addition to caching and sharing built artifacts on artifact servers, BuildStream now also caches source code in CAS servers. Supported implementations of cache servers are documented here. As such, we no longer ship our own custom implementation of an artifact server, and currently recommend using BuildBarn. Artifact and Source cachingīuildStream now uses implementations of the Content Addressable Storage (CAS) and Remote Asset services which are a part of the Remote Execution API exclusively to store artifacts and sources in remote caches. This makes large projects manageable, and noticeably improves performance and responsiveness on the command line. Various recursive algorithms have been eliminated in favor of iterative ones, and cython is used for the hot code paths. In order to support large projects (in the 100,000 elements range), the loading codepaths have undergone a massive overhaul. Remote ExecutionīuildStream now supports building remotely using the Remote Execution API (REAPI), which is a standard protocol used by various applications and services such as Bazel, recc, BuildGrid, BuildBarn and Buildfarm.Īs the specification allows for variations in setup and implementation of remote execution clusters, there are some limitations on what can be used by BuildStream documented here. This would be a very exhaustive list, so I’ll try to summarize the main changes as succinctly as possible. In case you have custom plugins which need to be ported to the new API, you can observe the API reference here and you are encouraged to reach out to us on our project mailing list where we will be eager to answer any questions and help out in the porting effort. In order to assist in the effort of porting your projects, we have compiled a guide which should be helpful in updating your BuildStream YAML files. ~/buildstream2/bin/activate Porting projects to BuildStream 2 # Activate the virtual environment to use `bst`
