I have some ideas for the digger jenkins, but some of them may be too much specific for the students and in some cases they may be just boring.
I think it's best to allow students to perform some experiments with build pipelines. 

For example:
- adding automatic tests to pipelines using emulator etc.
I think this has potential (automation for emulators / real devices). PErhaps as an addon to Arquillian (there were some tool (or at least ideas) about mobile there)


- adding automatic app store distribution to Android and IOS 
- playing around with fastlane (for example making screenshots of the app during the build)
- building pipeline helpers in form of DSL language
- extending build pipelines by adding support for mobile plugins (more jenkins than digger jenkins, but we can still benefit from this one)

I think these are all very different things, making it hard to have a good proposal. Sounds more like "fix our random things" :-)
 

Basically no limitations here as students may have their fav build tools etc. 
This would allow us to see how easy is to build pipelines and if digger jenkins would work with this custom requirements without changes.
No specific digger knowledge would be required and entire process may be quite enjoyable for the students interested in mobile apps development.
We can use them later as inspiration and share as pipeline examples.
I can provide more info how we can organize this and how it will span across 3 months of work. 

> How about integration of Digger-Jenkins with Eclipse Che?
The way I see it, is that Jenkins can listen to changes in git repository. 
Commit from che would trigger build on the Jenkins.

Right, that's CI
I was wondering if we could do a better integration/extension. E.g. from your idea, trigger a build, and have the option to have the extension download the APK (and launch to connected device/emulator).
just some thoughts

launching it, I saw there is Android support:

So, that builds the app already, but perhaps still not a bad idea to hook to AeroGear Digger-Jenkins, and that way one could leverage full Jenkins CI/CD from Che; Not sure... worth to explore!

docker run eclipse/che start :-)

Hi Matthias, 

Being a GSoC student myself 6 years ago, I am super interested in being a mentor. However, I am out of ideas since the thing I am interested, Jenkins-Digger, is just starting and it is hard to come up with student ideas.

After spending a lot of time thinking about it and reading JIRA tickets [1] for inspiration, the only thing I can come up with is client libraries for Jenkins-Digger in many different languages and platforms like Golang, Python, Ruby etc.

While this idea might be OK, it might be a little bit too easy. GSoC FAQ page says [2] "30+ hours a week working on your project during the 3 month coding period". 
What do you think?

Windows containerized Docker builds 
BTW, this is a simple and brilliant idea.


Cheers

Hi,

for this years GSoC, I think it would be interesting to have students evaluate some ideas.

For Push Server:
* Apache HBase database model for UPS + migration of data from SQL (MySQL/Postgres) to HBase
* Apache Kafka for centralized messaging in UPS
* Apache Spark for realtime processing of our push metrics 

Some of the above ideas are already capture in this larger/raw JIRA:


For Jenkins-Digger:
* Windows containerized Docker builds 

Any other thoughts ?
