Evaluate Develocity Build Scans for the Python client #966
Description
Context
Every Meshtastic Gradle repo is now onboarded to the OSS Community
Develocity instance at https://community.develocity.cloud under project ID
meshtastic — Build Scans® plus a shared remote build cache:
- Onboard to the OSS Community Develocity Instance Meshtastic-Android#6531
- ci: onboard to the OSS Community Develocity instance kzstd#36
- ci: onboard to the OSS Community Develocity instance gradle-flatpak-sources#28
- ci: onboard to the OSS Community Develocity instance MQTTastic-Client-KMP#118
- ci: move Build Scans and cache to the OSS Community Develocity instance meshtastic-sdk#91
- ci: publish KMP Build Scans and cache to the OSS Community Develocity instance protobufs#1027
Develocity now has a Python agent, so the question is whether this repo can join.
This issue records what was found; no change is proposed yet, because the
answer depends on something only Gradle can confirm.
What the Python agent is today
Per the Develocity Python Agent manual:
- Beta, currently
0.10.x. - Not on PyPI. It installs from a vendor URL:
https://develocity-python-pkgs.gradle.com/develocity_agent-0.10.1-py3-none-any.whl - Python support is off by default — "To enable it, contact Gradle."
- Configuration lives in a
.develocity.pyat the repo root, exposing a
develocity_configuration()function.develocity_urlis required;
access_keycomes from the config or theDEVELOCITY_ACCESS_KEYenvironment
variable. - Instruments
pip,poetry,pytest,pylint,mypy,flake8,autopep8,
isort,django, and others — but test results are pytest-only. - The manual states that publishing to Gradle's own hosted Develocity is not
supported. Whether that wording excludescommunity.develocity.cloudis the
open question.
This repo is otherwise a clean fit
Poetry-managed (pyproject.toml, poetry.lock), pytest-driven (pytest.ini),
with a CI job that runs lint + type check + tests via
poetry install --all-extras --with dev,powermon. The agent instruments
exactly that toolchain.
Blocking question
Can Python Build Scan publishing be enabled for project meshtastic on
community.develocity.cloud? This needs an answer from the Develocity
Solutions team; it is not something we can determine or configure ourselves.
Decision needed if the answer is yes
Adding the agent means adding a wheel served outside PyPI to poetry.lock.
That is a supply-chain decision for the maintainers, not a mechanical change: it
would want a pinned hash, and a view on taking a beta dependency into the
dependency graph of a published client library. Worth considering whether it
belongs in the dev group only.
Shape of the change, if approved
.develocity.pyat the repo root settingdevelocity_urland
project_id = "meshtastic".- The agent wheel in the
devdependency group, pinned by hash. - A
DEVELOCITY_ACCESS_KEYrepository secret, value
community.develocity.cloud=<key>— the host prefix is required, and
omitting it is the most common onboarding failure. - The existing CI test job picks it up with no workflow restructuring.
Until question (1) is answered, nothing in this repo should change.
