Description Kim Moir CLA 2011-04-01 09:00:03 EDT 
I initiated a committer vote for Szymon Brandys for access to eclipse.platform.  I assumed that all committers were in this group because everyone need to access org.eclipse.releng.  However, John pointed out this project is actually managed by ACLs.  Is there a single group that I can use to give all Eclipse and Equinox committers to Hudson jobs without specifying individual committer ids?

johna@dev2:/cvsroot/eclipse> getfacl org.eclipse.releng 
# file: org.eclipse.releng 
# owner: droy 
# group: eclipse.platform

Comment 1 Dani Megert CLA 2011-04-01 09:03:06 EDT 
Better would be to grant the groups access to Hudson (if possible). That way no further work is needed when a new committer is added.
Comment 2 Kim Moir CLA 2011-04-01 09:23:43 EDT 
Yes Dani, but then I have to add nine groups to access every Hudson job.  There is a Hudson job for
-nightly builds, integration builds, every platform (Linux, Windows, Mac), eventually performance tests

So I'm hoping there is a solution to just add one group.
Comment 3 Dani Megert CLA 2011-04-01 09:28:42 EDT 
Shouldn't every committer be allowed to look at build results like today?

Not that I'm aware of.  Based on the restructure docs we might be able to find
2+ groups that contain 'everyone' but it's still going to be a moving target.

Perhaps you could use a groovy script to implement Danis suggestion?  It will
probably be the easiest long term solution.

-M.

I assume you mean running a Groovy script as described here

http://wiki.hudson-ci.org/display/HUDSON/Hudson+Script+Console

I tried accessing the https://hudson.eclipse.org/hudson/script to try this out and saw the message

Access denied - kmoir is missing the Administer permission

Not knowing Hudson too well: maybe there's some sort of parent or template job that could be cloned?
Comment 7 Kim Moir CLA 2011-04-03 20:34:26 EDT 
I just added all the group manually to all the jobs. I'll look at the Groovy stuff when I have more time.
