Continuous Benchmarking with CIGR and ASV

Minimal example

1. asv quickstart, choose "benchmark suite in same repository"
2. set project name, url, branches, dependencies etc in asv.conv.json
3. If the main repo is not hosted on gitlab, import it there as "CI/CD for external repo"
   • you will requrie a personal access token for github to import
4. Set up CIGR infrastructure:
   • read/write deploy key from github to gitlab
   • read/write deploy key from gitlab to github
   • bors config
   • github action to push to the mirror on pushes to the benchmarked branches
5. Create a read/write deploy key on the main repo, add the secret key as a file variable on the CIGR mirror
6. create a .gitlab-ci.yml as you would for any CIGR with a benchmarking job and a publishing job
   • The benchmarking job will run on sarus on daint and can not push to github. It provides the results as an artifact.
   • The publishing job's docker image must contain python as well as git, it will push the history and update the github pages branch.
7. create the daint-node.json to specify the type of node you run on on daint.
