Bug 1147384 is rather easier for Fennec for a few reasons: * Fennec has few binaries to deal with; * our front-end doesn't interact with the regular C++ binary building layer at all; * Post Bug 1159371, Fennec builds with --disable-compile-environment; * and I've built a lot of the functionality for building and packaging just the Java and JavaScript code while supporting Gradle and IntelliJ -- so we have a perfect binaries package waiting for us after remote builds already. In Bug 1147384, catlee wanted |mach build --binaries=...|. For mobile/android, |mach package --binaries=...| is appropriate, but I want to keep this outside of the main flow for the time being. This ticket tracks implementing |mach package-frontend|, for use with --disable-compile-environment.

There are tools for downloading Firefox binaries. mozdownload or something. This code should ideally be an API on that package. But I'll let it slide for now.

I am aware, and am CCed on the relevant tickets, but there has been nothing implemented (or even proposed, other than "wait for TaskCluster") that addresses the existing needs of mozdownload, mozregression, or other tools like this one :(

gps: I no longer see my responses to some of your comments on RB, but perhaps I've just misplaced them. I addressed the large point (about requiring .hg) with a sledge-hammer. I addressed some small points in a further commit. But some of the bigger things aren't easy to arrange, and I don't want to spend much time honing a thing that I expect will change /a lot/ when we see it in the wild.
> I looked at this, but memoize works rather differently. My situation is trickier 'cuz the cache needs to be available on the instance object, for serialization. memoize's cache *is* in the instance object.
Some nitpicking: - artifacts.py doesn't belong in mozbuild - ideally it should share code with whatever mozregression is using.
> I agree: originally, I added |mach package-frontend|. But it's quite useful to be able to manage artifacts independently of packaging. I would like to see |mach package| invoke |mach artifact install| automatically; but I couldn't see how to dispatch a sub-command and decided not to block. mach package is way to late for that. If this is meant to be automatic, it should happen during the build or during configure.

This caches heavily, so it's cheap to run if nothing needs to be done; and for most packages, nothing needs to be done. The later in the process this runs, the more likely it is to reflect the state of your tree. In particular, lots of pulls from upstream won't trigger a configure at all, but will want new binaries. (And the same is true checking out different revisions locally.) I've been using variants of this approach since January and I have never once thought this would be better at configure time.

Because mach package is something that needs to die, and because my patch queue is going to use artifacts-like things during the build.
Mike: it sounds like you're opposed to Nick's approach. Can you propose an expedient alternative to this, if so? The mobile frontend team and our contributors, particularly those outside the western high-speed world, would see *enormous* benefits from Nick's work here, and Nick and others have been using it with great success for months. We have a working patch that yields immediate 20x speedups for 95% of our developers. Is there a good short-term alternative?
(In reply to Richard Newman [:rnewman] from comment #23) > Mike: it sounds like you're opposed to Nick's approach. I'm "opposing" something that is not even implemented in this patch queue.

(In reply to Nick Alexander :nalexander from comment #29) > Gijs: Rebased and added per-job artifact regexps. Try |mach artifact > install --job macosx64| or similar. Gah, sorry for my being so late to respond here. I've been distracted by far too many different things. Trying this results in: gkruitbosch-16516:fx-team gkruitbosch$ ./mach clobber && ./mach artifact install --job macosx64 usage: mach [global arguments] artifact install [command arguments] mach: error: argument --job: invalid choice: 'macosx64' (choose from u'android-api-11') Should I just file a new bug for this at this point?

Yes, please do. The extension point is there but we don't yet handle artifacts from different builds with the same name smoothly.
