digitalmars.D.announce - Web page listing all D compilers (and DMDFE version!) on travis-ci

That's an auto-generated listing of all versions of DMD, GDC and LDC 
available on travis-ci.

It also lists the front-end (DMDFE) version used by each, and the LLVM 
version for each LDC (all auto-generated as well).

If the site goes down, please post an issue report at either of the 
project sites below. It'll ping me.

I really wanted this because I found updating the compiler lists in my 
.travis.yml files to be a constant pain - especially for GDC/LDC since I 
never have a clue which versions use which front-end or even what 
versions are available, and the relevant information was spread across 
the separate respective sites for each compiler.

Project pages for this tool (for anyone interested):
https://github.com/Abscissa/travis-dc-detect-slave
https://github.com/Abscissa/travis-dc-detect-master

Still todo:

- Auto-trigger an update check on a regular basis (I'm thinking once 
daily?) so I don't have to stay on top of new compiler versions and 
trigger an update manually. (I can use Travis's API to do this.)

- Make the listing page prettier.

The page is now set to automatically check for updates every 24 hours. 
So it should always be automatically up-to-date now. No intervention 
needed by myself or any of the DMD/LDC/GDC developers.

FYI you miss the available ldc alpha and betas. On purpose?

Didn't initially occur to me, but I'd say that's a "possible future 
enhancement". It will take more work, and some extra thought, to figure 
out how to handle:

Right now, my tool relies on the ability to say in .travis.yml "just 
give me the latest available version" (by saying, ex "dmd" instead of 
"dmd-2.070.0"). Then my tool checks which version that turned out to be 
and posts it. I'm not aware of an equivalent that includes alpha/beta 
releases. I wonder if it would be easy enough for the folks handling D 
on travis to add? That would be the easiest way for me.

I *could* manually trigger it for each alpha/beta *already* available 
(like I did to initially populate the database with all the earlier 
versions of everything). I guess that would be information worth 
archiving. But that still doesn't give me a way to capture new 
alphas/betas automatically. Hmm, I do have an idea for how to do that, 
but it may be a little convoluted so I'd have to get to it later.

I guess...we'll see ;)

Very useful, but perhaps you can list the string one should use 
to tell Travis to use that version?
What I mean is: currently the Name column says e.g. 
"ldc2-0.17.1", but in the travis.yml file you must specify 
"ldc-0.17.1" to get it (without the "2").
(If the string is incorrect, the install script will give an 
error message from which it is not clear at all that the compiler 
name is not recognized.)

Thanks,
   Johan

Ahh, you're right, I hadn't noticed that.

Looks like semitwist.com is down. How about duplicating this list

Oops. It's back up now.

Not a bad idea.
