setup daily build of rakudo with enough modules to run doc.

See http://irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6/2016-08-02#i_12957335 for discussion.

Goal is to cut down on travis build times, and this could be shared with other Perl 6 projects doing travis testing.

[LLFourn]

I'd go about this by setting up an automated docker build for every commit to rakudo and package the modules inside the container. It would help for the docs and just be nice to have in general. Travis has docker built in so other projects could run their tests against the image.

Is this still relevant? Has the automated build been set up?

[JJ]

If the goal is to cut down travis build, we are using pre-built binaries from Whateverable. Allow me to close this as no longer relevant.

[AlexDaniel]

These builds don't come with precomped modules though, and that could potentially save ≈22% of the test time (more than 3 minutes). You decide if that's significant enough or not.

[nxadm]

Is there a list of the needed modules?

[AlexDaniel]

@nxadm yes, see this: https://travis-ci.org/perl6/doc/builds/353746161#L1477-L1495

There's #1765 which, for the time being, is in my own branch...
