Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening Everyone,

Here is a quick update on the work that has been done over this week in the

automotive-sig repository by the Toolchain team,

The product build pipeline was created. It is now triggered automatically when changes are pushed to the main branch, after merge requests are merged.

It generates a yum repository which is based on the packages manifest file https://gitlab.com/redhat/automotive/automotive-sig/-/blob/main/package_list/cs9-image-manifest.json (aka lockfile).

The yum repository is stored in an AWS S3 bucket - `auto-product-build`

One can download the yum repository into the development environment by invoking the following command:

(AWS credentials need to be configured locally to authenticate against AWS, but do not need special permissions, this bucket is configured with a public-read ACL, open to any authenticated AWS user)

aws s3 cp s3://auto-product-build/latest/cs9 <your-local-directory> --recursive

Note: Once changes land in the main branch, the bucket will become temporarily unavailable as the `latest` directory is recreated with the changed packages (this will be improved in future iterations)

We welcome your feedback,

Liora
