When running CI it would be great to post a link to the build on cdash. Is it possible to generate the link? If not, it seems like I just need the buildid e.g.:
https://mycdashserver.com/cdash/buildSummary.php?buildid=1234
Is it possible to query cdash for the buildid?
I remember some way was added to get this information, but can’t find it right now. @zackgalbreath
Ah, there is ctest_submit(BUILD_ID) added in 3.15.
I am doing the following:
ctest_submit(PARTS Notes BUILD_ID build_id)
and build_id is empty… bummer
I think it needs to be on the first ctest_submit. I’m not sure off-hand, Zack should be able to help more when he gets a chance.
@zackgalbreath any thoughts? I can’t seem to get anything meaningful from BUILD_ID…
Is it possible that the version of cdash I use is not compatible with this feature?
That is likely the problem.
That’s my hunch too. This feature was added to CDash here:
This commit (just barely) made it into CDash v2.6, so if you’re running something older CDash won’t be able to give you back a buildid at submit time.
