I think my question is related to these ones but the solution did not work in my case: How to run Node.js and Ruby tests within one project on Travis CI and Is it possible to set up travis to run tests for several languages?
I have a github repo that contains a little Golang application with a tiny Angularjs frontend. I want to run both go-tests and Karma-tests. I see two options:
Run two travis-ci builds for one repo (I could not figure out how to do that)
Run both tests in one build (did not work since the node version in travis-ci is too old (0.10).
The build runs for 60+ minutes and then stops with "FATAL ERROR: CALL_AND_RETRY_2 Allocation failed - process out of memory". The build shows tons of warnings like this one: npm WARN engine escodegen@1.8.0: wanted: {"node":">=0.12.0"} (current: {"node":"0.10.36","npm":"1.4.28"})
I tried to run the build as node_js but then the "go get xyz" does not work.
my .travis.yml file:
language: go
go:
- 1.5
env:
- TRAVIS_NODE_VERSION="0.12"
install:
- export PATH=$HOME/gopath/bin:$PATH
- go get golang.org/x/tools/cmd/cover
- go get -v github.com/axw/gocov
- go install github.com/axw/gocov/gocov
- go get github.com/GeertJohan/go.rice
# we do not need the rice tool!
- go get github.com/xeipuuv/gojsonschema
- go get github.com/finklabs/ttime
- go get github.com/finklabs/graceful
- go get github.com/gorilla/mux
before_script:
- npm install bower
- npm install --dev
- bower install
script:
- gocov test | gocov report
- npm test
sometimes the problem sits in front of the machine... I found a great workaround and I want to share it with you.
I created an account on https://drone.io/ in the settings tab I selected a build for "Go1" and added the following commands:
# install gogrinder dependencies
go get ./...
# install test dependencies
go get golang.org/x/tools/cmd/cover
go get -v github.com/axw/gocov
go install github.com/axw/gocov/gocov
# install nodejs requirements
npm -d install
./node_modules/bower/bin/bower install
# run the tests on the go code
gocov test | gocov report
# run the tests on the Angularjs frontend
npm test
Now I am back on track with a CI server that runs both Golang and Karma tests.
I gave a solution to this on http://entulho.fiatjaf.alhur.es/guias/how-to-use-node-along-with-other-language-on-travis-ci/ a long time ago, but it still works today:
Basically you just add
install:
- . $HOME/.nvm/nvm.sh
- nvm install stable
- nvm use stable
- npm install
to your .travis.yml
, which must be set to a different language, and it will install node
and npm
.
