Spack DAG Builder GitHub Action #2

@vsoch

Description

@vsoch

We would like to develop a spack GitHub action that can test an updated package, and then generate a DAG via spack ci that can be piped into GitHub Actions to test all related builds. This will help a developer answer the question "Will my change to this package break anything else?" and can be used separately from production spack, as a way to pre-test a package and possibly save cycles on production spack CI. Dependencies for this work include:

  • creating a general function for spack ci to generate a data structure with metadata that can be used here (or for snakemake, as I was testing)
  • having spack ci updated to then output a matrix for GitHub actions
  • adding additional functionality to be more efficient (e.g., build caching, logs, similar)
