The buildroot repository is now mirrored on https://gitlab.com/buildroot.org/buildroot so we can use Gitlab-CI to test Buildroot. Gitlab-CI is controlled by a .gitlab-ci.yml file that exists in the repository. For now, the only test is building all defconfigs (inspired on https://travis-ci.org/buildroot/buildroot-defconfig-testing/). Since all the defconfigs have to be specified in the .gitlab-ci.yml file, we generate the file based on .gitlab-ci.yml.in. The generated .gitlab-ci.yml file has to be committed into the repository, though, otherwise Gitlab-CI doesn't see it. So there is also a test to verify that .gitlab-ci.yml is up-to-date. Building all the defconfigs takes a long time. Gitlab-CI will do that every time it pulls from git.buildroot.org, which is once per hour. That is way too often. Therefore, the defconfigs are not built on pull, but only on explicit trigger through the API or when a tag is added.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
