these problems are general ones and the solution is the same as running programs in parallel or across machines. When needing to build different architectures (and needing a host to provide the toolchains), what's stopping you from issuing more than 1 command in your CI/CD pipeline? Most pipelines have a way of running something on a specific host. So does k8s, ecs, <pick your provider>, and probably your IT team. My experience, when it gets time to actually build the thing. A one-liner (with args if you need them) is the best approach. If you really REALLY need to, you can have more than one script for doing it - depending on what path down the pipeline you take. Maybe it's
Just try not to go too crazy. The larger the org, the larger this wrangling task can be. Look at Google and gclient/gn. Not saying it's bad, just saying it's complicated for a reason. You don't need that (you'll know if you do).The point I made is I hate when I see 42 lines in a build workflow yaml that isn't syntax highlighted because it's been |'d in there. I think the yaml's of your pipelines, etc, should be configuration for the pipeline and the actual execution should be outsourced to a script you provide. |
