Set up Azure-CI

[samuelpilz]

closes #993.

This is still a work in progress and I have setup one test-job. However, the job fails. See https://dev.azure.com/haskell-ide-engine/haskell-ide-engine-power-fungus/_build/results?buildId=24

I need help fixing the test. What is needed to successfully run the tests?

[lukel97]

Liquid Haskell needs to be installed for the functional tests, and IIRC in CircleCI it comes from the docker image

[samuelpilz]

I have added liquidhaskell to the build, but it still fails.
See: https://dev.azure.com/haskell-ide-engine/haskell-ide-engine-power-fungus/_build/results?buildId=31

@fendor @bubba, any ideas?

[lukel97]

Those tests that are failing are probably caused by the Hoogle database not being generated beforehand. CodeActions need a `stack exec Hoogle generate` to be run beforehand in the CI job, in order to lookup which packages to import etc.

Will try.

[samuelpilz]

Still no luck. The liquidhaskell-related tests still fail. See: https://dev.azure.com/haskell-ide-engine/haskell-ide-engine-power-fungus/_build/results?buildId=32

[samuelpilz]

I am unable to get all liquidhaskell tests to work. I have tried your suggestions about liquidhaskell-0.8.2.4 and ghc-8.2.2 but the tests still fail. (https://dev.azure.com/haskell-ide-engine/haskell-ide-engine-power-fungus/_build/results?buildId=35)

Any other ideas?

[samuelpilz]

Thanks to @fendor, the first build has just succeeded, see #1283.
Build: https://dev.azure.com/haskell-ide-engine/haskell-ide-engine-power-fungus/_build/results?buildId=38

Now, I will work on getting the build to work on all platforms with all ghc-versions

[jneira]

I've setup another pr that make the windows builds reach the run tests step.
The final test build will be this but the same config was tested here

[samuelpilz]

For 8.6.2 and 8.6.1, the installation of the ghc fails on Mac. Is this a known issue with mac and these ghc versions?

[samuelpilz]

with help of @jneira, we have managed to get the build working on all platforms and almost-all ghc-versions: https://dev.azure.com/haskell-ide-engine/haskell-ide-engine-power-fungus/_build/results?buildId=76

There is a catch: no tests are executed, since they fail almost everywhere. I suggest merging this PR and adopting azure as build-check. Getting the tests to work there should a PR of its own.

[samuelpilz]

I would consider this PR done as a first step.

[alanz]

As far as I can tell this looks good, happy for it to go in as a base build.

[lukel97]

This is awesome. So satisfying to see so many build configurations

[samuelpilz]

I'll merge this PR since this the feedback has been positive.

[samuelpilz]

I tried officially add this repository for a new pipeline. But I have not the access-rights to change the hooks of this repository.

There are 2 options:

• I or @fendor get (temporary) access rights for hooks to this repository.
• I invite some one with the appropriate access rights to the haskell-ide-engine team on azure-ci and that person adds the pipeline
