Replace Travis with Github Actions #768
Conversation
|
I have uploaded a newer version of the action excluding the MacOS runner since I do not know why it fails. I don't think it is very important since we had already marked MacOS as an allowed-failure in Travis. Regarding Ubuntu I have fixed the version to 18.04 and after rerunning several times I have not seen the MySQL timeout error again. Since we have several PRs already waiting I would approve this PR and leave for the future possible improvements. |

From a fast scroll of failed MacOS run it seems all of them fail due to In any case the problem seems not to be related to this PR so I believe this can be approved. I am a bit confused by |
What bothers me is that it ALWAYS happens in the MacOS runner. Maybe they are using different machines to run Linux and Mac and the latter for some reason are slower. If we want to run the tests on MacOS it could be a good idea to increase the limit, although I do not know how much time would take the tests the end in that case.
Agree
You are right, I have not changed it yet. I'll do it now. |

Since you have left commented the lines about MacOS installation maybe you can squash the history? |

Done. I'll merge the PR after the tests pass. |
next-exp#768 [author: jmbenlloch] Since Github Actions does not impose any time limit for free accounts, I think we should move now to github and stop using Travis. This PR includes a first idea on how to implement our tests using a Github Action. [reviewer: mmkekic] This PR allows the switch from Travis CI to GitHub Actions CI, needed after Travis changed the free plan policy.

#761 [author: MCruces-fz] With the intention of adding a function that generates timestamps, this push is presented with the following changes: - Updated sensor_utils.py with the create_timestamp function. - Added test_create_timestamp_greater_with_greater_arguments to sensor_utils_test.py with the intention of testing whether with larger parameters said timestamp is greater. - Updated buffy.conf, buffy.py and components.py to implement the function create_timestamp. Fixes #752 [reviewer: andLaing] This PR adds functionality allowing a user to set a timestamp for Monte Carlo data more similar to that present in data. The function is stand alone so could be used to later change the timestamp in existing MC files if required for a specific analysis. Tests added and updated where necessary and warning added for unphysical values of the new configuration parameter. Approved pending integrated testing issue (see #768).
Some of the latests PRs (#767, #761) are not running the tests in Travis. I have checked our travis account and it seems that there is a time limit for free accounts in travis-ci.com. Each free accounts gets 10000 "credits" but we have used all of them:
An error message appears in our travis account:

There are several issues:
ubuntu-latestis transitioning from 18.04 to 20.04. I'll try later to fix the version to 18.04 to check it.DO NOT MERGE yet until we sort out the details. We need a reliable system to substitute Travis and for some reason we are not quite there yet. I think this is somehow urgent because, currently, we do not have any working CI system.
