Dave Cottlehuber commented on COUCHDB-2008:
-------------------------------------------
[~crigor] these requirements are listed in /DEVELOPERS in the source tree.
Also, I finally got around to using packer to build some test boxes. This is
working pretty nicely. If you want to work on these together and use ansible to
drive the configuration let's do that on the dev@ mailing list next week.
For packer, I used the templates here https://github.com/opscode/bento and
built my own boxes. How about we use these images as a base for automating
these builds?

> Dave suggests to look into Ansible & Packer to create images for CI.
> The idea would be to run these configurations on the CI server and controlled
> by Jenkins. It should also be possible to set up a configuration locally that
> matches the CI box exactly, so one can do debugging under the same
> circumstances the CI server runs tests.
> The requirement for now is that it all needs to work with a set of VMs that
> we have SSH access to, but we don’t manage the host. I’m not too familiar
> with all the automation and VM image packaging tools, so I don’t know if one
> or another is useful in that context or not.
