{{NexJ_Express Index}}
[[category: NexJ_Past_Projects]]

==Project goal==
Currently, NexJ has a Mercurial Repository (Internal) in which, the NexJ Express Server (Core) code is maintained with all its histories. NexJ is planning to share a Core Repository with the Open Source Community by creating a Repository (External) that will be kept in sync with the Internal Repository.<br/>

==Project Phases==
=== Phase 1: Design Proposal (Done) ===
* Get requirements from NexJ
* Incorporate requirements from NexJ into Design of algorithm for syncing repositories
* Provide the proposal for review and approved - [[Continuous_Integration/proposal | final version of proposal]] ,  [https://docs.google.com/document/d/17Fuj_9A7sBkzlbP0t0bOY3Qs1iiAhKAvfNTuUMnHUcg/edit?hl=en_US  Google Doc ]

===Phase 2: Creating Similar Environment (Done) ===
* Internal Repository
** Creating a Mercurial repository and adding some changes to it to grow the history of it.
* Controller
** This will be containing temporary repositories as the result of scripting. 
* External Repository
** Creating another Mercurial repository using 'hg' commands from the latest 'change-set' of Internal Repository.

===Phase 3: Scripting (Done) ===
* Ant
** Doesn't support some of non-regular Mercurial commands that we need to play with ''change-sets''
* Bash
** Supports everything we need for the project. [[Continuous_Integration/script | script]]

===Phase 4: Running the script on CI system (Done) ===
* Buildbot
* Hudson
** Simple to setup and configure.
** Runs different types of scripts: ''bash'', ''ant'', ''batch''
** Can be scheduled to run automatically or manually

===Phase 5: Code Review (Done)===
* Execute the script on one of Nexj computers.

===Phase 6: Make Changes as per Code Review (Done)===
* Define paths based on Nexj's requirements
* Modify the script to be able to retrieve change-sets of a remote repository
* Create specific error message for each problem during running the script

===Phase 7: Code Review (Done)===
* Send code for review.
