During Hackweek I am working on better upstream integration for BuildService and OSC. Right now I have almost fully working osc build --upstream-update. I have a demonstration for you, how I building SVN version of OSC client. :-) This upstream stuff should support a lot of upstream integration method like SVN, BZR, GIT, CVS, HTTP(S).

Current _upstream XML syntax

<upstream>
  <source>
  <!--
    HINT: If you need more than one download, it is not problem, just add more section like svn with all compulsory tags,
    if you need more http(s) download DO NOT add new http(s) section, just add url tag only!
  -->
    <svn>
      <url></url> <!-- svn repository url e.q. https://forgesvn1.novell.com/svn/opensuse/trunk/buildservice/ (compulsory)-->
      <destdir></destdir> <!-- directory for checkout e.q. buildservice-svn (compulsory) -->
      <file></file> <!-- name of tarball... syntax is name.tar.[gz,bz2,lzma] e.q. buildservice-svn.tar.lzma (compulsory) -->
      <rev></rev> <!-- revision number, passed as svn co $url $destdir -r $rev (optional - remove tag) -->
    </svn>
    <cvs>
      <cvsroot></cvsroot> <!-- passed as -d to cvs command (compulsory) -->
      <path>path on CVS server</path> <!-- path on CVS server (compulsory) -->
      <file></file> <!-- name of tarball... syntax is name.tar.[gz,bz2,lzma] e.q. buildservice-svn.tar.lzma (compulsory) -->
    </cvs>
    <git>
      <url></url> <!-- git repository url (compulsory) -->
      <destdir></destdir> <!-- directory for checkout (compulsory) -->
      <file></file> <!-- name of tarball... syntax is name.tar.[gz,bz2,lzma] (compulsory) -->
    </git>
    <bzr>
      <url></url> <!-- bzr repository url (compulsory)-->
      <destdir></destdir> <!-- destination directory for checkout (compulsory) -->
      <file></file> <!-- name of tarball... syntax is name.tar.[gz,bz2,lzma] (compulsory) -->
      <rev></rev> <!-- revision number, (optional - remove tag) -->
    </bzr>
    <http>
      <url></url> <!-- http download url -->
      <url></url> <!-- http download url -->

Building SVN version of OSC using my upstream integration

Used _upstream XML

<upstream>
  <source>
    <svn>
      <url>https://forgesvn1.novell.com/svn/opensuse/trunk/buildservice/src/clientlib/python/osc</url>
      <destdir>osc</destdir>
      <file>osc-svn.tar.bz2</file>
<!--      <rev></rev> -->
    </svn>
  </source>
</upstream>

Video presentation :-)

I tried upload this video at Google Video Service, but unfortunately quality wasn’t very good (text was unreadable) so here is download link. :-)

Current limitations of my solution

Currently I don’t have any solution for updating Version: tag in spec file, this is one of think I need to figure out.
