Hi,

Let me sum up what we - the Copr team - did in 2020:
We enabled CDN for repos. https://fedora-copr.github.io/posts/copr-cdn
We enabled runtime dependecies on repositories https://fedora-copr.github.io/posts/runtime-dependencies
We migrated all our servers from PHX datacenter to AWS. With zero downtime for your repos.
Pavel Raiskup became the new Mock project leader, and he released seven new versions of Mock during 2020.
https://github.com/rpm-software-management/mock/wiki
- Our small team has been renamed to Community Packaging Team (CPT) because beside Copr, we maintain other tools as
well: Mock, dist-git, Tito...
We drove changes in createrepo_c, which allowed us better throughput. Now, Copr can build thousands of builds per day.
We worked on Fedora packages website, which was outdated and do not work on recent Fedora. Unfortunately, it will not
be likely used, and static pages will be used as it will require less maintenance.
We introduced Project scoring for projects in Copr (up/down vote) http://frostyx.cz/posts/upvoting-projects-in-copr
We allowed you to delete multiple builds at once. https://fedora-copr.github.io/posts/deleting-list-of-builds
You can use Github Actions now https://pavel.raiskup.cz/blog/github-push-actions-and-copr.html
We created modulemd-tools for low-level handling of repositories and modules. And tool for generating
module-build-macros. https://github.com/rpm-software-management/modulemd-tools
We worked hard on better EOL handling of Copr repositories.
We parallelized copr-dist-git imports.
We wrote code for Ansible DNF Copr module. This still needs to land in a proper place like Ansible Galaxy.
https://pagure.io/copr/copr/blob/master/f/ansible
We provided --isolation=* and --bootstrap=* knob in Copr
We started an experimental "external dependencies" feature in Mock.
https://github.com/rpm-software-management/mock/wiki/Feature-external-deps
- We created a new python module "templated-dictionary" as a spin-off from Mock's code.
https://github.com/xsuchy/templated-dictionary
We wrote four articles "4 cool new projects to try in COPR" https://fedoramagazine.org/tag/copr/
Users now have the ability to change the build timeout up to a maximum of 48 hours
Users can group builds in batches now. https://pavel.raiskup.cz/blog/build-ordering-by-batches-in-copr.html
That's quite an impressive list!
We already have plans to do:
Verify GPG checks in DNF using DNSSEC. https://pagure.io/copr/copr/issue/406
Improve hooks (in cooperation with Packit team)
We are going to EOL APIv1 and APIv2 https://fedora-copr.github.io/posts/EOL-APIv1-APIv2
What will we do in 2021? We have some ideas. Some of them are yours, some of them are ours. At the end of this email is a link to Google Form where you can vote what you would like to get. We will consider your vote. (listed in no specific order)
- When you create a project, you may specify that it will be for Package Review. We do some settings for you, and
`rpminspect` will be run automatically at the end of the build. We can guide users on how to file Package Review BZ. Or do that automatically on their behalf.
Contribute to fedpkg/Koji that tagged commits will be automatically built in Koji and may be automatically sent to Bodhi.
Help with automatic changelog entries.
Native support for Fedora in Travis.
I'd say don't bother with Travis, they are becoming increasingly unusable for non-paying users and I've seen many projects migrate to github actions.
Continue on external dependencies. https://github.com/rpm-software-management/mock/wiki/Feature-external-deps
Finish rpm-spec-wizard https://github.com/xsuchy/rpm-spec-wizard
Better integration with Koshei.
Automatic rebuilds in Copr when dependency change (likely with the help of Koshei)
YES! Please, please, please make this possible. And an additional box of cookies for you all if it will work with dynamic buildrequires ;-)
Enhance release-monitoring and rebase-helper to automatically open PR in Pagure when new version is available.
Enhance `Mock --chain` to try to set %bootstrap when standard loop fails. When the set succeeds, rebuild the
bootstrapped package again without %bootstrap macro. https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#bootstrapping
Improve the process of finding a sponsor for the first package.
Contribute to fedpkg/koji to have machine-readable output.
Please vote here: https://forms.gle/UuH86ECzfZNHJgEr8 The results are intentionally publicly available. You may check them anytime.
Is it intentional that google asks me to sign in? I don't actually have a google account.
Cheers,
Dan
