CJ: report on June 18-20 NYC sprint
Sprint in NYC June 18th through 20th for REST API for conda-forge graph and better inspection of CLI/imports/includes for conda-forge packages.
Potential place for additional metadata in conda recipes?
(from @Jonathan H ) you can clobber/append portions of a recipe with an extra file with conda-build 3
recipe_url info for recording repo where a recipe came from: https://github.com/conda/conda-build/pull/2489
Moving compiler syntax
Run syntax in topo order https://github.com/regro/cf-scripts/issues/214
Run compiler move as soon as syntax has moved
Formalize pushing to different label (maybe as optional arg to
conda-smithy
?) (this would also help with RC releases)
Existing Items
Finding a good solution to sharing passwords among core
Run_exports etc: https://github.com/conda-forge/conda-forge-pinning-feedstock/pull/58
Michael Sarahan to document and give demo on how to transition old recipes to new style - https://github.com/conda-forge/AnacondaRecipesSync - 5/1: Will wait for more people on the dev call before Mike talks about this
Build packages on C3I and upload to conda-forge
Make is missing from the base image for PowerPC internal to Anaconda. Fun times!
Mike is open to other people helping with this. If interested, reach out! Helping means trying recipes, debugging any issues, and resolving any merge conflicts that have happened since Mike pulled them in last. Moving target.
Packages that have been built https://anaconda.org/cf-cb3 - these may need more work regarding versions. The graph was computed with the versions, but probably should have ignored them. When a pin is older than a newer recipe, the upstream recipe gets missed as a real dependency because of the version mismatch.
switch to cb3
what kind of things are going to break when we change compilers?
(@Jonathan H had a great response that I hope he’ll clarify here:) tl;dr C++ ABI
Some details on libstdc++ dual ABI, https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/using_dual_abi.html
Making the agenda and notes public again.
John will see if we can make dropbox paper readable by the world
other options are to just post the notes somewhere public after the meeting
conda-forge blog
Discussed Items
Done
add something to the bot to add new PRs that manage the cb2 → cb3
e.g., if a compiler is detected, add the right compilers for the right files (Justin, nominally — @Christopher W @Mike S and @Anthony S will probably be reviewing those PRs) See issue: https://github.com/regro/cf-scripts/issues/162
