Re: [chirp_devel] Windows Server availability
Excellent. I will try to get a working script and test it across a few versions. I think in your case, simply using the PowerShell script is the better choice, considering Ketarin is meant to be run continuously as a monitor.
You would have to install a program into the image (Chocolatey), and also remember to run the script (or include it in your build script).

Yes. Essentially my question is if Windows compilation/testing is done on a Windows machine, or on some other OS. If the compilation is done on a Windows server, then the process is fairly easy. Either process outlined here (https://chocolatey.org/docs/automatic-packages) would work.
Yeah, I spin up a windows instance to do the builds, and could potentially work this into the process as well. Updating the image that I use for the build isn't a huge deal, but it's not as simple as just tweaking an always-on server. That, and I loathe every time I need to mess with that stuff :)

Note that the builds are made on WinXP for maximum backwards compatibility. I've never used powershell, but be aware that the build environment is old for a reason.
Also, the whole build process is scripted over ssh with cygwin bash in the windows image. So whatever I run has to be callable from that environment.
