WebHob is a Web-based interface to the Bitbake build system and the Poky distribution inside the Yocto Project.

General discussion about '''Web Hob''' happens on a dedicated mailing list: [https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/webhob https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/webhob]

Project planning is available below, are the design documents we follow.

== User interface ==
The design of the user interface takes place in iterations, and most recent designs supersede older ones. 
Here is a set of links to design documentation.
* [[Web_Hob_design_project_with_T%26T]] - the latest user interface design
* [[Visualisations]] - an inventory of data visualisations we aim to include in the first release of Web Hob
* [[File:Multiuser_support_in_Web_Hob.pdf]] - different design approaches to handle multi-user scenarios
* [[File:Web_Hob_content_structure.pdf]] - Web Hob information architecture

== Project Planning ==

We plan to develop WebHob functionality in stages. Each stage should match with an Yocto Project release.

=== YP 1.5 release ===

* WebHob will offer features to record and analyze bitbake runs, where a bitbake run is an invocation of bitbake to a certain target.
* WebHob will offer ways to inspect the system image contents generated by running a Poky target that results in a disk image.

== Architecture and component design ==
We are planning the capabilities of WebHob based on evolutive stages of implementation, using community feedback on each stage to plan, design and implement a set of capabilities for the next stage.
In the first stage, synchronized with the planning of Yocto 1.5, we'll implement a build analysis / image inspection module.

WebHob is designed as a collection of components that will run independently performing isolated functions. The interfaces between components are documented on this wiki as to ease interoperability with newer components. From design phase, we've taken care to account for further expansion needs, and account for scalability problems.

== Installation and Running ==

We provide a manual for installation and running WebHob as part of this wiki.

== Testing ==
Documentation and results related to WebHob Quality Assurance.

There have been 2 main pieces of work related to Web Hob so far:

* [[Web Hob design project with T&T|A design project with the London-based agency Tobias & Tobias]]
* [[Yocto Web Hob Design 0.0 — Archived|A preliminary design project]] by [http://www.jimkosem.com/ Jim Kosem]

=== Web Hob information architecture ===

This document represents the content structure of the Web Hob application.

=== Different approaches to multi-user workflows ===

This document outlines the different approaches we have uncovered so far to facilitate multi-user and team work with Web Hob. 

* [[File:Multiuser_support_in_Web_Hob.pdf]]

=== Visualisations index ===

The build analysis functionality in Web Hob will include several graphical presentations of build data. The first step to design them is [[visualisations |listing them all]].
