BuildSystem Specs

This is where we will put the specs for the web interface we need to build

UI Requirements

Basic original requirements for personal repos:

1. auth to fas
2. data to get:
   1. name of repo
   2. srpms to build (urls to them)
   3. urls to the repos to use for other build deps
   4. base fedora/rhel tree to build from
3. some way to query this data from the build manager

backend process requirements/design

master process which spins off builds

• count of number of builders it can make
• way to make new ones and to destroy old ones
• place to store the results
• url schema for referring to its own repos from "the world"

pruning repos

• policy on how long things are kept
• handles exclusions/exceptions
• warns on removals N days in advance and repeatedly

repo editing/managing

• handle requests from ui to delete from a repo and rebuild repodata
• handle requests to modify repodata (add group file, for example)
