Add --without-intl builds to CI matrix

Would it be possible to add ./configure --without-intl buildbots to the CI matrix? I volunteer to fix up the test suite if necessary.

See nodejs/node#6820 for background.

Flavour irrelevant? Linux?

More is better but Linux + Windows seems like a good start.

Slightly off-topic but would you see shared builds in the same light?

I'm not dead set against testing it but it's mainly intended for distro packagers, and they know how to help themselves.

Disabling intl (crypto too, for that matter) is more of an end user thing for people on low-end systems.

I'll set this up on our most redundant setup.

--without-inspector would be good to have too, see nodejs/node#7258.

Another one: nodejs/node#9041

Would also be good for testing pull requests like nodejs/node#9040.

I'm tired of this issue being open and inactive for so long. For my purposes I've created https://github.com/TimothyGu/node-no-icu, which uses Travis CI and a local cronjob to run tests without ICU every 6 hours on master. Doubtless to say, the first build will certainly fail as soon as it finishes, though the second build with nodejs/node#16251 will probably be much more successful. PR CIs are run manually.

I'm tired of this issue being open and inactive for so long.

Would you like to set up the Jenkins job? This is just waiting on someone having the time, the only bit that needs special access is the initial job creation. I'm happy to clone the Linux test job and give you access.

@gibfahn

@gibfahn I saw https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-commit-linux-nointl/ has been created. I think this can now be closed.

I think this can now be closed.

Is it actually run in the main flows? We should keep this open till that job is good to go. I also don't think running on that many platforms is a good idea, we have a lot of variations to test, so one or two platforms each is probably best.

@gibfahn

@gibfahn In that case I'd be happy to be given the permissions to modify the job.

@TimothyGu

@TimothyGu I've given nodejs/Collaborators configure access. I guess we can always revoke it if this becomes part of the main flows.

What I think we need is a job that runs a variety of configurations, but only on one platform each (if it turns out we need more coverage then we can expand).

Things I've seen asked for (cc/ @danbev, who I'm sure has some requests):

--without-intl (this one)
--without-ssl (Add a --without-ssl node-test-commit job #643)
Some combination of the shared/static lib options (--fully-static, --partly-static, --enable-static, --shared-openssl,
--without-inspector
with OpenSSL 1.1.0 (Support both OpenSSL 1.1.0 and 1.0.2 node#16130 (comment))
Run other test suites, e.g. internet (test: make addresses of internet tests configurable node#16390 (comment))

Added some notes in nodejs/node#16130 (comment) about how we might go about testing a shared openssl without requiring dedicated CI machines for it, this would also work for the other shared libs we support (http-parser, libuv, zlib, cares — basically what Linux distro packagers are dynamically linking against.)

How about this as a proposal:

Add a pipeline to this repo that takes a set of sets of config flags as a build parameter. For each set it runs a make run-ci on Linux, macOS, and Windows. We can then have a single job that can run an arbitrary set of build types (as long as they just differ in config flags).

Example:

CONFIG_FLAGS='"--without-intl" "--enable-static" "--without-ssl"'

would run three different builds, one for --without-intl, one for --enable-static, and one for --without-ssl, each on the three main platforms.

Will attempt to raise PR if I get time.

perhaps we could make a subset of nodejs/Collaborators for this kind of thing, nodejs/Collaborators is very broad and it might be best if we restrict it to just people that are interested enough in doing this kind of work; like a nodejs/jenkins-job-config or something that doesn't give full access? maybe we can talk about this at our next meeting.

moving my comments to #972

@TimothyGu

@TimothyGu Can you confirm that https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-commit-nointl/ works ok? If so, probably makes sense to close this issue, and then maybe move to a different one to discuss --without- flags in general

@maclover7

@maclover7 Last time I checked, the job works fine. However, I really want it to get into the daily build routine (doesn't have to be in node-test-commit, but executed frequent enough for us to notice issues about it).

Oh, hey, I think I missed this issue the first time around. We have infrastructure in place to set variations like this in https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-commit-linux-containered/, each of the builds in there just have variations of CONFIG_FLAGS being passed in, this would fit really well. If we go ahead and ditch older Alpine then we have more than enough processing power on our Docker hosts to make these go just as quick as the others.

Is it as simple as CONFIG_FLAGS=--without-intl? Is there anything else special that I'm not seeing in node-test-commit-nointl? I can add a builder for that pretty easily if that's all there is to it and it'll get run on every commit.

heh .. just noticed that I've been very active in this thread already last year .. I have no memory of this 😬

Yes.

Done, this lives in node-test-commit-linux-containered along with the other ./configure permutation builds. It's run inside Ubuntu 16.04 containers: https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-commit-linux-containered/nodes=ubuntu1604_sharedlibs_withoutintl_x64/

I've restricted it to >= Node 6.

I've also added the following sanity check after everything runs to make sure the binary is as we expect it to be (we have something like this for all the variations):

INTL_OBJECT="$(out/Release/node -pe 'typeof Intl')"
echo "Intl object type: $INTL_OBJECT"
if [ X"$INTL_OBJECT" != X"undefined" ]; then
  FAIL_MSG="Has an Intl object, exiting"
  echo $FAIL_MSG
  echo "1..1" > ${WORKSPACE}/test.tap
  echo "not ok 1 $FAIL_MSG" >> ${WORKSPACE}/test.tap
  exit -1
fi
PROCESS_VERSIONS_INTL="$(out/Release/node -pe process.versions.icu)"
echo "process.versions.icu: $PROCESS_VERSIONS_INTL"
if [ X"$PROCESS_VERSIONS_INTL" != X"undefined" ]; then
  FAIL_MSG="process.versions.icu not undefined, exiting"
  echo $FAIL_MSG
  echo "1..1" > ${WORKSPACE}/test.tap
  echo "not ok 1 $FAIL_MSG" >> ${WORKSPACE}/test.tap
  exit -1
fi

We don't quite have enough containers to do more than 2 node-test-commit-linux-containered's simultaneously now because this adds an extra build for each one. However I've just pulled out a heap of Alpine containers from active use so we have capacity to spin up more containers on our existing Docker hosts. I'll get to that in the next few days.
