Debian-Janitor-specific services

The Debian Janitor runs stock versions of various services that are a part of the core Janitor project. In addition, it has a couple of its own:

  • site - The web site, with integration for other Debian services and e.g. authentication with Salsa
  • followup - Schedules followup actions for builds

It ships a custom worker image that bundles the codemods.

The "schedule" container is run regularly and schedules new runs based on data in e.g. UDD.

Relationship with other projects

The Debian Janitor is built on top of the core janitor project, which lives at https://github.com/jelmer/janitor. It adds the web site and all the Debian specific bits. This separation isn't super clear at the moment, and ongoing.

Most of the actual work is done by other projects, which aren't specific to the Debian Janitor. The only requirement is that they support the silver-platter codemod protocol .

For the Debian Janitor, these projects currently are:

  • lintian-brush. Provides lintian-brush, debianize, deb-scrub-obsolete and apply-multi-arch-hints

  • brz-debian. Provides deb-import-upstream, deb-auto-backport, deb-move-orphaned and deb-import-uncommitted

  • debmutate. Provides drop-mia-uploaders

There are several ways to contribute.

You can join the reviewer group and review changes from the Janitor.

If you have an idea for a change the janitor could make, but no time to work on it, file a bug.

You can also work on identifying issues and adding fixers for lintian-brush. There is a guide on identifying good candidates and writing fixers in the lintian-brush repository.
