| Subject: | Relative/absolute paths in meta.yml |
I think there's a problem with the way Smolder understands paths in
archive files.
If I run my prove command inside my application's root directory and
upload that TAP archive to Smolder, I get pass and fail counts. So this
works:
prove -Iapp -v --merge --archive my_test_run.tar.gz
The meta.yml file in that archive contains relative paths to the TAP
output files.
The following does not work, although the content of the TAP output
files is identical.
prove -I/mnt/ebs/home/users/amirib/sandbox/app -v --merge --archive
/mnt/ebs/home/users/amirib/sandbox/t/archives/2010-02-06.tar.gz
/mnt/ebs/home/users/amirib/sandbox/t
This command latter produces a TAP archive with a full directory tree
inside. The contents are thus:
meta.yml
mnt/ (with subdirs going all the way to t/)
The meta.yml contains:
---
file_attributes:
-
description: '/mnt/ebs/home/users/amirib/sandbox/t/01_class_sanity.t'
end_time: 1265520534.63714
start_time: 1265520534.28689
-
description:
'/mnt/ebs/home/users/amirib/sandbox/t/02_register_noncoppa.t'
end_time: 1265520538.78068
start_time: 1265520534.64297
file_order:
- '/mnt/ebs/home/users/amirib/sandbox/t/01_class_sanity.t'
- '/mnt/ebs/home/users/amirib/sandbox/t/02_register_noncoppa.t'
start_time: 1265520534
stop_time: 1265520538
See the absolute paths? Those files are actually the test files, not the
TAP output! If I change the contents of that file to use './mnt...',
i.e., to reference the ./mnt directory in the archive file relatively,
tar that back up, and upload that to Smolder, I get pass and fail counts.
If I delete meta.yml entirely and tar up only the mnt/ directory, that
works as well.
