What happened to Machinekit's Jenkins?

[Jan Svoboda]

Hello,

I wanted to loop up some older test on jenkins.machinekit.io - but the address is no longer active. Does anybody know what happened to the Jenkins server?

Thanks.

Cern.

I'm not sure exactly what happened, except I know the server's owner needed to reclaim the resources Jenkins was using, and ISTR hearing Jenkins was a PITA to administer.

Travis CI is easy to set up, and the limitations that prompted the switch to Jenkins several years ago have since been solved (i.e. fast ARM cross-builds replaced the old emulated builds that exceeded the 50-minute time limit on Travis). There are (likely out of date) Travis setup instructions in the mk-cross-builder repo.

problem is - at least it looks like it from where I stand - killing the Jenkins server also killed the Machinekit build system. And no packages are generated.

Yes, thank you. I am using it on Travis.

There is currently no auto-build for Machinekit-CNC, right?
