ANNOUNCING: New tools for working with CI Train Silos.

 

Hello,

Some of you may already be familiar with the tools I created for
easily installing packages from CI Train Silos, namely citrain-slurp
and citrain-push. The exciting news today is that these tools now ship
as part of the phablet-tools project!

Just `sudo apt-get install phablet-tools-citrain` and you too can
slurp down to those packages from the silos you want to test.

The tools are as follows:

citrain-slurp: this installs all binary packages from the given silo
onto your host machine (eg, the machine you run the command on).

citrain-push: this installs all binary packages from the given silo
onto the connected ubuntu touch device using adb.

(NEW!) citrain-purge: this clears all silo packages off your host machine.

All three commands take a single argument, a number from 1-20,
indicating which silo to grab from / purge. And of course, the
overview of which packages exist in which silos can be found here:

Known issues:

* No way to specify a device when more than one are connected.

Unknown issues:

Please let me know what you find!

Thanks!
