Stack with Travis CI

Question

I recently tried using travis CI with glass, and I have some problems.

my.travis.yml file is in my repo, which is here: (I used the manual on the stack website) A snapshot of my configuration file looks like this:

sudo: false # Caching so the next build will be fast too. cache: directories: - $HOME/.stack before_install: # Download and unpack the stack executable - mkdir -p ~/.local/bin - export PATH=$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH - travis_retry curl -L https://www.stackage.org/stack/linux-x86_64 | tar xz --wildcards --strip-components=1 -C ~/.local/bin '*/stack' 

Tests do not run when I click them on git, travis CI tries to build my repo, but when I look through the log, it says that it cannot find the stack command.

However, in my configuration file, I pointed it out to install the stack.

I'm not sure why this is happening, any help would be appreciated?

I saw it too.

 [0K$ travis_retry curl -L https://www.stackage.org/stack/linux-x86_64 | \ tar xz --wildcards --strip-components=1 -C ~/.local/bin '*/stack' /home/travis/build.sh: line 45: tar: command not found % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 0 0 0 0 607 0 0 7527 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 7527 0 9223k 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 0 [31;1mThe command "curl -L https://www.stackage.org/stack/linux-x86_64" failed.

This is when curl fails due to some kind of network problem. Reboot your build and hope for better luck next time.

In case of interest to those of interest to you, here is my complete, but minimal .travis.yml :

 sudo: false language: c cache: directories: - ~/.stack addons: apt: packages: - libgmp-dev before_install: # Download and unpack the stack executable - mkdir -p ~/.local/bin - export PATH=$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH - travis_retry curl -L https://www.stackage.org/stack/linux-x86_64 | tar xz --wildcards --strip-components=1 -C ~/.local/bin '*/stack' install: - stack --no-terminal --install-ghc test --only-dependencies script: - stack --no-terminal test --haddock --no-haddock-deps
