If another instance of the PR workflow is started for the same PR,
cancel the old one. If a PR is updated and a new test run is started,
the old test run will be cancelled automatically to conserve
resources.
Build in parallel with however many cores are available on the system.
This might not affect build times in every environment (for example, if
GitHub Actions VMs are single core).
From the initial test run of this PR, we're seeing roughly 1x build
speed on Linux, 3x on macOS, and 1.5x on Windows, compared to the same
build step on a contemporaneous PR.
The docs build in GitHub Actions broke with the release of jinja 3.1,
which introduced a breaking change that broke the cloud_sptheme sphinx
extension in use by our docs. That extension is not maintained any more,
so there will be no upstream fix. See also
https://foss.heptapod.net/doc-utils/cloud_sptheme/-/issues/47
That extension adds support for table styling (see
https://cloud-sptheme.readthedocs.io/en/latest/lib/cloud_sptheme.ext.table_styling.html),
but we only appear to have one table in the docs currently
(docs/source/options/segment_template_formatting.rst) and it does not
use the options added by the cloud_sptheme extension.
Therefore the best fix for GitHub Actions and any other system running
jinja 3.1 is to remove that extension from our config.
There are a lot of changes in this first phase, because there was a
lot of infrastructure required to get some meaningful amount of
porting done. Future PRs should be simpler.

Issue #346 (Switch to abseil)
Issue #1047 (New build system)
Using the latest depot_tools no longer works. depot_tools also wants
to auto-update itself, which must now be disabled.
We also need to disable the copy of python (vpython) included in
depot_tools, since for some distros, it has dependencies on system
libraries that no longer exist.
Finally, we need to force some distros to use python 2, because our
build system is ancient and needs to be ripped out and replaced some
day soon.
This fixes build issues in our CI, our Dockerfiles, and in general on
certain platforms or distros.

The official, static-linked linux builds were crashing in their use of
getaddrinfo, which libcurl was configured to use. Both getaddrinfo
and all of its alternatives available in glibc fail with static
linking.
We can fix this by configuring libcurl to use libc-ares on Linux
instead. This allows us to keep the benefits of a statically-linked
Linux binary.

It was suggested in code review for another project that we update the
runner labels for clarity. This brings Packager in line with that, so
that we are using the same labels across projects.
The runners have already been updated to register with the new label.

Now that we have multiple architectures, we should factor both OS and
architecture into the names of release binaries. This makes the names
more formulaic, as well as consistent with the static-ffmpeg-binaries
repository. Shaka Streamer will pull binaries from both this repo and
that one, so consistent names would be helpful.
The pssh-box release is actually OS and architecture independent, so
remove the suffix from that and only release one copy of it.

This was causing failures on arm64, where the build action had an
arm-specific clause that was skipped due to the missing parameter.

We never produced static release executables on Linux before, but the dynamic libraries they depended on were universal enough that nobody noticed. Now that we have released v2.5 and switched to GitHub Actions for CI builds, the Linux executables depend on libatomic, which is causing issues for some users.
Although we can't create fully-static executables on macOS or Windows, we can at least do so on Linux.
This adds a GYP variable static_link_binaries which can be set to request full-static binaries on Linux. This also exposes the Chromium build variable disable_fatal_linker_warnings, which is necessary when static linking on Linux due to static-link-related warnings generated by libcurl for its use of getaddrinfo. Finally, this enforces the definition of __UCLIBC__ with static linking on Linux, which is the only way to disable malloc hooks in Chromium base. Those hooks cause linker failures when linking statically on Linux.
A new check has been added to the release workflow to ensure that the builds we create are statically linked on Linux.
Closes#965
There is not a good reason to use a long-lived token attached to
shaka-bot. Instead, use a short-lived, automatic token generated by
GitHub Actions for the workflow run.
This brings our default build config more in line with what is
necessary for some platforms anyway: using the system-installed
toolchain and sysroot to build everything.
We will no longer fetch source or binaries for any specific build
tools, such as libc++, clang, gold, binutils, or valgrind.
The main part of this change is the changing of default gyp settings
in gyp_packager.py. For this, a bug in gyp_packager.py had to be
fixed, in which similar GYP_DEFINE key names (such as clang and
host_clang) would conflict, causing some defaults not to be installed
properly.
In order to enable clang=0 by default, some changes had to be made in
common.gypi:
- compiler macros added to fix a compatibility issue between
Chromium's base/mac/ folder and the actual OSX SDK
- replaced clang_warning_flags variables with standard cflags
settings, plus xcode_settings for OSX
- turned off warnings-as-errors for non-shaka code, rather than
allow-listing specific warning types, since we can't actually fix
those warnings on any platform
- disabled two specific warnings in shaka code, both of which are
caused by headers from our non-shaka dependencies
Also, one warning (missing "override" keyword) has been fixed in
vod_media_info_dump_muxer_listener.h.
Although these changes were done to make building simpler on a wider
array of platforms (arm64, for example), it seems to make the build a
bit faster, too. For me, at least, on my main Linux workstation:
- "gclient sync" now runs 20-30% faster
- "ninja -C out/Release" now runs 5-13% faster
The following environment variables are no longer required:
- DEPOT_TOOLS_WIN_TOOLCHAIN
- MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET
Documentation, Dockerfiles, and GitHub Actions workflows have been
updated to reflect this.
The following GYP_DEFINES are no longer required for anyone:
- clang=0
- host_clang=0
- clang_xcode=1
- use_allocator=none
- use_experimental_allocator_shim=0
Documentation, Dockerfiles, and GitHub Actions workflows have been
updated to reflect this.
The following repos are no longer dependencies in gclient:
- binutils
- clang
- gold
- libc++
- libc++abi
- valgrind
The following gclient hooks have been removed:
- clang
- mac_toolchain
- sysroot

Internal CI systems and the new GitHub CI system were out of sync,
with the external system not doing any linting. Further, the internal
system was using an internal-only linter for Python.
This creates a script for Python linting based on the open-source
pylint tool, checks in the Google Style Guide's pylintrc file, creates
a custom action for linting and adds it to the existing workflows,
fixes pre-existing linter errors in Python scripts, and updates pylint
overrides.

Testing CI workflows is a pain. This usually involves forking the
main repo and testing various operations there, where the results will
not break the main repo.
However, some things like NPM and Docker package names were initially
hard-coded. This meant that a fork would need to customize those in
the workflows to avoid pushing official-looking packages during CI
testing.
This change moves those hard-coded names to GitHub Secrets. Though
the names are not actually secret, the secret store is per-repo, and
will be independent in a fork. This makes it easier to avoid
accidentally pushing official-looking releases during testing, even if
the fork has access to the same auth tokens.

It turns out that workflows were the wrong way to abstract reusable
pieces of work. This turns common steps into custom actions (build
docs, build packager, test packager) which can be used as encapsulated
steps in multiple workflows.
This is a much more natural way to avoid duplication compared to the
previous approach of triggering one workflow from another. This also
has the benefit of all of the steps of a release being represented on
GitHub as a single workflow, making it easier to understand what is
happening and what event triggered those steps.

This replaces Travis (for Linux & Mac) and Appveyor (for Windows) with
GitHub Actions. In addition to using GitHub Actions to test PRs, this
also expands the automation of releases so that the only manual steps
are:
1. Create a new CHANGELOG.md entry
2. Create a release tag
Workflows have been create for building and testing PRs and releases,
for publishing releases to GitHub, NPM, and Docker Hub, and for
updating documentation on GitHub Pages.
When a new PR is created, GitHub Actions will:
- Build and test on all combinations of OS, release type, and library
type
Appveyor's workflow took ~2 hours, whereas the new GitHub Actions
workflow takes ~30 minutes.
When a new release tag is created, GitHub Actions will:
- Create a draft release on GitHub
- Extract release notes from CHANGELOG.md & attach them to the
draft release
- Build and test on all combinations of OS, release type, and library
type, aborting if any build or test fails
- Attach release artifacts to the draft release, aborting if any
one artifact can't be prepared
- Fully publish the draft release on GitHub
- Publish the same release to NPM (triggered by GitHub release)
- Publish the same release to Docker Hub (triggered by GitHub release)
- Update the docs on GitHub pages
