Job ¶

Job is the slave’s output of running/completed task. This is a directory with at least:

alive

Constantly touched file when job is running. That updates file’s mtime and tells that process is still alive.

host.txt

Slave’s hostname. It is also used to determine when job was started.

tmp-path.txt

Path to temporary directory on the slave, in case it failed and you wish to look at its state.

pkg.txt

Just list of installed skelpkgs during the build.

env.txt

Dump of environment variables used to start each step.

steps/

Subdirectory containing more subdirectories named after each step. Each of those directories contains at least:

started

Empty file used for creation time determination.

stdout.txt, stderr.txt

TAI64N-prefixed output of corresponding streams.

exitcode.txt

May not exist if step is in progress. Contains either decimal value of the step’s return code, or timeout string in case the step is killed due to longtime lack of output.
