- in linux jobs we serialise `tests-ui`, `tests-nim` and appImage `package` into a single workflow. - in macos job we serialise `iOS`, `MacOS` builds into a single workflow. - we use system `nim` for all jobs and dont have to build nim from nimbus build system each time. - installed `nim 2.2.10` on `windows` and `macos` hosts. - upgraded nim in Docker images and bumped the harbour tags for `linux` and `android`. This will help us avoid checkout and `deps` stage for these jobs and we can free up slots for other jobs. This way we can do more work in parallel. Because of this we save: - `12` minutes of build time in `linux` job. - `10` minutes of build time in `macos` job. - `21` minutes of `nim` compile time in `windows` job.
Description
These Jenkinsfiles are used to run CI jobs in Jenkins. You can find them here:

Builds
Linux
In order to build the Linux version of the application we use the ubuntu:20.04 Docker image where we install the Qt 5.15.2 provided by aqt, linuxdeployqt provided by https://github.com/probonopd/linuxdeployqt and other dependencies (go, cmake, gcc etc.). We're using Ubuntu 20.04 to ensure glibc compatibility with the oldest still-supported LTS release and to comply with linuxdeployqt requirements.
The image is built with Dockerfile using:
docker build -t statusteam/nim-status-client-build:latest .
And pushed to: https://hub.docker.com/r/statusteam/nim-status-client-build
MacOS
The MacOS builds are run on MacOS hosts and expect Command Line Toold and XCode to be installed, as well as QT being available under /usr/local/qt.
It also expects the presence of the following credentials:
macos-keychain-identity- ID of used signing certificate.macos-keychain-pass- Password to unlock the keychain.macos-keychain-file- Keychain file with the MacOS signing certificate.
You can read about how to create such a keychain here.
iOS
iOS builds use fastlane with match for code signing management.
For detailed documentation on iOS signing, fastlane configuration, and certificate management, see mobile/fastlane/README.md.
