GSoC 2020: Week 9
A report of work done during the ninth week of the Google Summer of Code 2020 program
uly 26 - August 01: Most of this week was used up in fixing the build process to run the CI on the newly added features, fixing the manner in which it handled the installation of AWS SDK as well as providing a stable based for starting work on tikv/tikv. Yi also opened an issue(#8367) which I have started solving with a draft PR(#8383). The idea is to progressively add a variable to DbConfig called s3 which will itself be composed of an enabled flag to mark the use of S3 as a storage engine.
I have been facing a lot of hurdles in building without error/warning. I think there is an issue with cargo-nightly.
Update: There was infact an error with cargo-nightly! The Cargo.lock was being forced to update on every cargo build thus there was a lot of version mismatch that was not meant to be. This was spotted in 1.47.0-nightly 2020-07-26 and solved in 1.47.0-nightly 2020-08-051.47.0-nightly 2020-08-05. Thanks to everyone at @tikv and @rust-lang for helping me figure out this issue, it really had me 😅
