Storing projects - the idea

How to store a project to preserve it for the future ?
My project have up to three components.
A description/documentation. some code, schematics.

I like the idea to have my work not only stored in different servers like Bitbucket or EasyEDA or Blogger but also stored on my server, locally.

Backup/Sync system

Ok, time to organize a backup strategy involving the Drobo unit.
The idea is to have Drobo having all the data around  the network copied on the Drobo unit, i.e. different machines do backup on Drobo.

A personal CI system - building C program

Now we do have our CI system, how can we use it ?


If you have some code to compile with GCC, is possible to create a job in Jenkins to monitor it (on github) and every time the code is committed, have it updated on the server and compiled, notifying errors to the developer.

Drobo - monitoring it

Now that the Drobo unit is on the final place, connected to the server, I did set up a monitor activity of it.

The server, other than handle the backup operations, also monitor that everything is OK, Drobo included.

A personal CI system

In this article I'm describing how to set up and configure a basic CI (Continuos Integration) system that can be used for many  things, based on an open source program called Jenkins.

Of course, for my projects to set up a CI  to build them is just little bit overshooting, but surely is interesting and fun.
