thx @sharkAndshark , can you think of a way to automate testing of the debian packages? Perhaps run some sort of apt install from a local file and test that which martin points to the right dir?

More specifically about this PR - Martin is clearly a service, so integrating it with a service infrastructure makes perfect sense, but it does not really make any sense without some configuration - so should it be disabled by default? Not certain what the best options would be.

Hi @nyurik. Something we should consider of per your comment:

test

How and what to test a .deb file in our CI? There are some references I'm still researching on.

the behaviors of martin as a service

• should not automatically start afeter installation
• should have a configuration file by default
• ??

Sorry, my mistake - I just realized you already do that in Integration Tests (with debian package) part, which looks great!

Hi @nyurik :)
By now, we could use it like this.

just package-deb
sudo dpkg -i target/debian/martin.deb
just start

Call martin directily

martin postgres://postgres:postgres@localhost:5411/db

We have made a test about this: Intergration test (with debian package) in CI.yml

Call martin as service

# enable martin automatically start 
systemctl enable martin
vim /usr/local/etc/martin/config.yaml
...
systemctl start martin
systemctl status martin

Do you think we need a test for calling marin as a service?

looks good, thanks!

P.S. We could add a simple check if a specific file exists in CI after debian package install - up to you
