does it build?

A webapp that checks which Rust targets build at any nightly.

It does this by executing cargo build --release -Zbuild-std=core for every target and every nightly and displaying the result.

There's a background job that continously builds every target for every target that it hasn't built yet. It does this in parallel, using half of the available threads (or DOES_IT_BUILD_PARALLEL_JOBS).

Configuration

• DB_PATH: Path to SQlite DB to store the results
• DOES_IT_BUILD_PARALLEL_JOBS: Parallel build jobs, defaults to cores/2.
• GITHUB_SEND_PINGS: If this is set, actual pings will be sent for notification issues
• GITHUB_OWNER: The owner of the notification repo
• GITHUB_REPO: The repo name of the notification repo
• GITHUB_APP_ID: The app ID of the notification GitHub app
• GITHUB_APP_PRIVATE_KEY: The RSA private key for the notification GitHub app

Build configuration: DOES_IT_BUILD_OVERRIDE_VERSION to override the git commit.

Deployment

Notification

does-it-build supports sending target maintainer notifications on breakage.

It does this by creating an issue https://github.com/Noratrieb/does-it-build-notifications that pings the registered maintainers. There is an array in the source code (linked to on the website target page) where people can add or remove themselves.
