Hello,
following the release of LAVA 2019.01, we released lavacli v0.9.4
This release brings two new commands:
* "lavacli utils templates render" to render jinja2 templates
This will help users/admins to debug jinja2 templates issues
* "lavacli jobs queue" to show the current queue for the requested
device-types
This is only available since LAVA 2019.01
As usual, lavacli could be installed from:
* pypi (https://pypi.org/project/lavacli/)
* debian (https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/lavacli)
Cheers

LAVA Team, Linaro
The 2019.01 tag has been pushed to master on git.lavasoftware.org.
Packages have been built in GitLab CI and are available at
apt.lavasoftware.org/release. Docker images for amd64 and arm64 have
been built in GitLab CI and are available from hub.lavasoftware.org
and https://hub.docker.com/u/lavasoftware
New bootloader testing and recovery support
==================================
The recovery mode support already implemented for the hikey 6220 has
been used to provide recovery mode operations for the X15 by Milosz
Wasilewski to support bootloader testing with automated recovery.
Dropped default patterns and fixup dicts
===============================
Omits the V1 compatibility constants for default pattern and fixup
dict. Patterns and fix up dictionaries are now only available in Lava
Test Definition 1.0 test shells if the test writer explicitly adds the
parse: block to the test definition. The documentation has been
updated.
Ensure lxc-templates is installed
=========================
To use lxc, the recommended lxc-templates package must be installed to
provide the template files. When installing lava-dispatcher in Docker,
it is now useful to specify the lava-lxc-mocker package as the updated
LXC packages will fail to install inside Docker.
Final black changes
================
All LAVA Software Python code in lava.git has now been formatted using
black and the GitLab CI ensures that this formatting is retained. If
you are developing code to be merged into lava.git, ensure that you
have black installed and run it as the final step before contributing
your changes upstream or the CI will fail.
REST API using django-restframework
=============================
Added REST API for LAVA, including ability to export results in JUnit and TAP13.
Non-POSIX test action
=================
Add a new test method for non-posix shells. The test writter is able
to launch any command on the DUT and is responsible for giving the
right set of patterns that match failure and success.
Add a new boot method called "bootloader"
=================================
This method allows to boot the DUT, interrupt the bootloader and jump
into the bootloader shell.

Hi,
In founding the LAVA Software Community Project, the team planned to
open up LAVA development more. As already announced by Neil in
September, we have already moved our infrastructure to a GitLab
instance and LAVA developers and users can collaborate there. [1]
The next step in our process is to also open our regular development
design meetings to interested developers. The LAVA design meeting is
where the team gets together to work out deep technical issues, and to
agree on future development goals and ideas. We run these as a weekly
video conference using Google Hangouts Meet [2], We now wish to
welcome other interested developers to join us there too, to help us
develop LAVA.
Summaries of the meetings will be posted regularly to the lava-devel
mailing list [3], and we encourage interested people to subscribe and
discuss LAVA development there.
