Sign Up & Registration¶

Activate CI for your github repository on Travis CI signup page. Select SIGN UP WITH GITHUB.

Note

Travis CI is FREE for Open Source (public projects). However, there is a hard time limit of 50 min for a public job. For private projects, there is limited quotas of 100 trial builds. For more information, you can find them on https://travis-ci.com/plans.

Also note that Github Education Pack provides private builds for free for students.

Setup Configuration File¶

Add a .travis.yml file to tell Travis CI what to do. Here is an example.

language: generic
services:
  - docker

cache:
  directories:
    - $HOME/.ccache

env:
  global:
    - CCACHE_DIR=$HOME/.ccache
  matrix:
    - ROS_DISTRO=foxy ROS_REPO=main
    - ROS_DISTRO=foxy ROS_REPO=testing

install:
  -  git clone --quiet --depth 1 https://github.com/ros-industrial/industrial_ci.git .industrial_ci -b master
script:
  - .industrial_ci/travis.sh

Trigger CI Pipeline¶

Commit and push to trigger a Travis CI build. Travis only runs builds on push and PR after added a .travis.yml file.
