An ability to use Deckard on Debian Jessie about deckard HOT 5 CLOSED

Comment only mentions slowness, nothing else.

we want to install newer version of Augeas because those from Ubuntu repositories are incredibly slow on some operations

from deckard.

Thank you for the fast response! I appreciate it! :)

But after upgrade Deckard fails for some reasons in Augeas code (I found "value MUST be a string or None" in pyaugeas):

Run test  system/tests/test_dns_71.rpl
Scenario failed:  value MUST be a string or None!

I use following scenario:

cat tests/system/tests/test_dns_71.rpl
SCENARIO_BEGIN Test case for subd.mytestzone.io A (NOERROR)

STEP QUERY external
ENTRY_BEGIN
SECTION QUESTION
subd.mytestzone.io IN A
ENTRY_END

STEP CHECK_ANSWER
ENTRY_BEGIN
MATCH all
REPLY QR AA  NOERROR
SECTION QUESTION
subd.mytestzone.io IN A
SECTION ANSWER
subd.mytestzone.io. 300 IN A 1.1.1.1
ENTRY_END

from deckard.

I migrated our test suite to Python 3 but I'm still hitting same error.

Scenario failed:  value MUST be a string or None!
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./runtests.py", line 385, in main

Could you help with it?

Thank you!

Hello Pavel.

sorry for taking so long to reply - I didn't have watch set on this repo.

Our CI is running on Debian Jessie so you can look into our Dockerfile to see what we did:
https://gitlab.labs.nic.cz/knot/knot-resolver/blob/master/ci/Dockerfile
Right now our Docker image contains libaugeas0 version 1.8.0-1+deb9u1 and python-augeas binding for Python 3 installed via pip, version 1.0.3.

Speaking of binary depedencies, well, one alternative I'm aware of is to use network namespaces from Linux kernel. It would mean that Deckard is Linux-only and it would also require root privileges.

BTW "official" repo is in CZ.NIC's Gitlab, I just created Github issue #7 to explain this to newcommers. It might be better to continue discussion in real time, please join us @ https://gitter.im/CZ-NIC-deckard.

Thanks! Will do :) Just created account for your GitLab bug tracker.
