Automatically download the newest daily build

Updating the virus definitions fixed it.

What's going on with this project? My copy stopped working for some reason, and now I can not download a new one.

Dunno what happened for you. It's still running for me today. More information if you want a suggestion besides redownloading from post 103?

 

[icon315]

Anyone have a copy of the executable? Both links are 404

 

[heeheehee]

Post #103 should still work, supposedly. I'll edit that info into the first post.

I haven't really thought about this code in a long time but currently I'm just loading the jenkins api for the last successful build (http://ci.kolmafia.us/job/Kolmafia/lastSuccessfulBuild/api/json or http://ci.kolmafia.us/job/Kolmafia/lastSuccessfulBuild/api/xml) to get the path to the latest jar. For example in python:

import json
import urllib2

lastUrl = r'http://ci.kolmafia.us/job/Kolmafia/lastSuccessfulBuild'
data = json.load(urllib2.urlopen(r'%s/api/json' % lastUrl))
jarUrl = r'%s/artifact/%s' % (lastUrl, data['artifacts'][0]['relativePath'])

Hope that's helpful.

Looks like it, thanks!

 

[Kris Moonhand]

Seems this is completely borked, possibly because of the server change?

 

[taltamir]

This is wonderful, thank you very much

DailyDownloader finally stopped working for me today (complains about a 403 response from http://ci.kolmafia.us/job/Kolmafia/lastSuccessfulBuild/), so I switched to this, seems to work fine. Thanks to everyone who creates and maintains these tools! I'll miss the DailyDownloader. It had - character.

I miss it so much
Thanks and have a great day

Looks like some kind of of process on the server had a memory leak and it killed Jenkins. I've gone ahead and restarted the server and it should be back up. Let me know if you have any further issues.

 

[TaPol]

Absolutely Fantastic, Thank you so much. It is working fine again.
Thank you for your speedy response also. It's very much appreciated.
Now to begin my KoL day. Thanks again. All the best

[Landamus]

Thanks, this finally made me break down and setup svn and ant to just build my own.

 

[Veracity]

That's fair. I've been doing that since before the forum has existed.
And, if you want access to the latest - or any - version on your own terms, that's what you need to do.
But, for lots of people who don't want to do that, fewyn's service here is actually key.
Thank you so much, fewyn!

(And for people who imagine that "the latest version from Sourceforge is the only one which matters", you are incorrect, but my periodic "official" point builds are all that matters. Thank me, I guess )

 

[Ima Felyn]

You both rock! I tend to update once a week or so (in fact I just did today "20134" cool number btw!), I grab the "point" releases when they come out, but know they'll get outdated eventually in a week or two so that's when fewyn's awesome service comes in. So yeah, thank you both, I've been playing this game for a really long time, just by myself, and super passively, as in I don't pay much attention to the what's outside happens (like forums and kol community stuff), but I know if mafia didn't exist I still wouldn't be playing still. Ugh, just thinking of you guys quit work on this and having it die... just don't.

Hi all

Got the dreaded 503 again. Log below.
Thanks for all your great work. I love this addition to KoLmafia.

Cheers,
TaPol

Restarted the build server again... I'm going to have to dig into the errors it's been reporting to figure out the issue. Let me know if you have any further issues.

Thanks so much, greatly appreciated

I would suggesting making a cron job to auto restart the server weekly.
