Additional Arguments

No Wait

--no-wait is an optional argument which submits the build and returns immediately printing the build artifacts to stdout.

Show Logs

--show-logs is an optional argument to print build logs to stderr, after the build(s), in the event of warnings or errors.

Quiet Mode

Passing -q/--quiet to build will cause tuxsuite to produce minimal output. In particular:

  • Only the final build artifacts URLs will be printed to stdout.
  • No progress information will be printed while waiting for the builds to finish.
  • Warnings and errors, including build failures, will be printed to stderr.
$ tuxsuite build --quiet --git-repo 'https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git' --git-ref master --target-arch arm64 --kconfig defconfig --toolchain gcc-9

This is handy for use in automation/CI scripts.

json-out

The --json-out \<filename.json\> command-line option accepts a filesystem path, where it will write a status file in json format at the end of a build. The file will contain, for example:

{
    "build_key": "1oiYvkUr1ctXdkV7KCLZ6320JVw",
    "build_name": "arm64 clang-nightly tinyconfig mainline",
    "build_status": "pass",

}

image-sha

--image-sha is an optional argument which submits the build and instructs tuxbuild to use / pin the container image specified by the complete sha256 of the image. The container image complete sha256 is 64 hexadecimal digits.

no-cache

--no-cache is an optional argument which performs the build without using any compilation cache.
