Add CircleCI GoBenchData Orb (WIP)

[bonedaddy]

Overview

Opening this up to get some initial feedback. The idea behind this orb is to enable a CircleCI equivalent of the GitHub Actions capabilities of gobenchdata.

Changes

• Adds a CircleCI orb
• Currently published under rtradeltd/gobenchdata
• Current capabilities:
  • Run benchmarks
  • Parse benchmark samples and generate data for gobencdata

TODO

• Enable checks
• Enable uploading new benchmark data to specified branch
• Add example

Seems like a cool thing to have! 🚀

Have you taken a look at entrypoint.sh? I wonder if it might be possible to use that script here so that there is consistency in behaviour across the GitHub Action and this orb 🤔

[bonedaddy]

No I haven't, I will take a look at the entrypoint script though, thanks!

edit:

I think it will be possible to mirror the entrypoint.sh script you have. Should have a fully functional CircleCI orb within the next few days.

[bonedaddy]

Alright I've got feature parity with how the github actions behave. One question, the pr checks capabilities, does it cause PR CI builds to fail?.

edit:

Now that there's basic parity in place, i'll try to use the entrypoint.sh script. I'm not sure if it will be entirely possible though, given that some of the EnvVars it expects seem github action specific

You could do some renaming to make the env vars match up - the only specific ones are GITHUB_, and they could be exported in the orb as REPOSITORY -> GITHUB_REPOSITORY for example.

I imagine CircleCI exports similar variables during CI runs!
