tmt tool supports command line options for setting test repo about tmt HOT 12 CLOSED

I am going to try create merge request about this ...

from tmt.

Thanks for the idea. Looking forward to the pull request.

@psklenar if you need any help/pointers to the implementation, we have each Tuesday hacking sessions, invited you!

@thrix suggest to add:
tmt plans update
to update https://src.osci.redhat.com/rpms/cpio/blob/rhel-8.2.0/f/ci.fmf

which updates some elements in NAME.fmf

or https://src.osci.redhat.com/rpms/lftp/blob/private-fmf-plan/f/ci.fmf

When thinking about this a little bit more I realized we could also support multiple values for each discover step option. This would only require to always provide the same set of options:

tmt plan create plans/basic \
    --name upstream --how fmf --url https://github/ --ref devel --filter tier:0,1 \
    --name fedora --how fmf --url https://fedora/ --ref master --filter tier:0 \
    --name rhel --how fmf --url https://rhel/ --ref rhel-8 --filter tier:1

An empty string could be used for undefined options if needed like this:

tmt plan create plans/basic \
    --name upstream --how fmf --url https://github/ --ref devel --filter tier:0,1 \
    --name fedora --how fmf --url https://fedora/ --ref '' --filter ''
    --name rhel --how fmf --url https://rhel/ --ref rhel-8 --filter tier:1

I guess this would also be a little bit easier from the implementation point of view. What do you think?

This sounds good, I will start working on a PR for you on this.

@psss would it make simpler to have a tmt plan update command which could update the plan with multiple discover phases, but it would be a separate command?

So your

tmt plan create plans/basic \
    --name upstream --how fmf --url https://github/ --ref devel --filter tier:0,1 \
    --name fedora --how fmf --url https://fedora/ --ref '' --filter ''
    --name rhel --how fmf --url https://rhel/ --ref rhel-8 --filter tier:1

Would translate to

tmt plan create plans/basic --name upstream --how fmf --url https://github/ --ref devel --filter tier:0,1 \
tmt plan update plans/basic discover --name fedora --how fmf --url https://fedora/ --ref '' --filter ''
tmt plan update plans/basic discover --name rhel --how fmf --url https://rhel/ --ref rhel-8 --filter tier:1

or something like that?

My impression is that adjusting existing plans in an automated way will not be such a common use case. I would expect that further changes of the existing fmf data will be done in most cases manually. Plus, from the implementation point of view, it's not that easy to update fmf node. It's quite easy when plan is stored in a separate file but thanks to elasticity you can also have multiple plans in a single file, and inheritance does not make this task easy either. Not that it would be impossible but for now I think we're good with extending the tmt plan create options.

@mruprich, any progress here? Is there anything blocking you? Can I help somehow?

from tmt.

No, sorry, I just got stuck on other issues. Hopefully I will have the solution ready tmrw.

Fixed by #219. See the documentation for usage examples.
