bitbake: hob: removal of hob ui and associated ui files

2016-03-02T22:41:23+00:00

We've been gearing up the Toaster web UI to replace the Hob (GTK+ based) UI for some time now; Hob has basically been on life support for the past few releases. As of late last month in master, Toaster has the capability to select the packages in an image, removing the last thing that Hob could do that Toaster couldn't. To recap, the reasons why Hob is being removed include: - The code is tightly woven into BitBake, making it fragile. This means it needs significant QA and maintenance on an ongoing basis. - Some of the implementation is not ideal; we'll be able to remove some cruft from BitBake and OE-Core at the same time. - It's GTK+ 2 based, not the current GTK+ 3. - Toaster is now a much more capable UI and is being actively maintained The discussion about removing hob can be found at: http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-architecture/2016-February/000082.html (Bitbake rev: be2cceea159c6ca9111eff3df87b98513eab6d72) Signed-off-by: bavery Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

bitbake: bitbake: cooker,xmlrpc,servers: implement CookerFeatures

2013-09-22T11:19:43+00:00

Implementing feature set selection that allows a client to enable specific features in the server at connection time. Only enabling of features is supported, as there is no way to safely remove data loaded into the cooker. Once enabled, a feature will remain enabled for the life of the cooker. Client-server connection now supports specifying the feature set required by the client. This is implemented in the Process server using a managed proxy list, so the server cooker will now load dynamically needed features based on what client connects to it. In the XMLRPC server the feature set is requested by using a parameter for registerUIHandler function. This allows observer-only clients to also specify features for the server. The server code configuration now is completly separated from the client code. All hardcoding of client knowledge is removed from the server. The extra_caches is removed as the client can now specify the caches it needs using the feature. The UI modules now need to specify the desired featureSet. HOB is modified to conform to the featureSet specification. The only feature available is CookerFeatures.HOB_EXTRA_CACHES which forces loading the bb.cache_extra:HobRecipeInfo class.

bitbake: hob: add event handlers filtering in Hob

2013-08-27T10:16:58+00:00

Create the _evt_list for hob; it is longer than the knotty uses because it handles more events. (Bitbake rev: 715aed74f972bb6e9b6a5130ca9ede48d4f79f0a) Signed-off-by: Cristiana Voicu Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

bitbake: cooker: Move commandline parsing back into the UI/cookerdata

2013-05-22T11:10:13+00:00

Building up a set of actions for the server is tricky since we depend upon the commandline but fall back to values from the datastore. We should be able to build a datastore without a commandline and vice versa. Ultimately the UI should send the commands to the server. This patch amounts to code rearranging, moving the heavy lifting to the UI, though a helper in the configuration option. This will need further cleanup/tweaking but this should be the only update needed to the UIs. The code now queries the server for any missing data should it need to. This code allows various knowledge of configuration variables to move to the UI side only, partcularly pkgs_to_build but also all the command specifiers. It should also be possible to move cmd eventually, I'm just unsure if any callers call the commands expecting this to default to something sane right now.

lib/bb/ui/hob: exit cleanly if the required pygtk version isn't available

Hob uses API from pygtk 2.22, therefore check to see whether this version is available and exit cleanly if not. (Bitbake rev: 192d5fdf9ea27cdc8b043204857ae5b21173a011) Signed-off-by: Joshua Lock Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
