Gerrit Replication to GitHub

cat <<EOF >review_site/etc/replication.config
[remote "github"]
url = git@github.com:\$\{name\}.git
EOF

Jenkins / Gerrit Integration

Create a Jenkins User in Gerrit

With the jenkins public key, as a gerrit admin user:

cat jenkins.pub | ssh -p29418 review.openstack.org gerrit create-account --ssh-key - --full-name Jenkins jenkins

Create "CI Systems" group in gerrit, make jenkins a member

Create a Gerrit Git Prep Job in Jenkins

When gating trunk with Jenkins, we want to test changes as they will appear once merged by Gerrit, but the gerrit trigger plugin will, by default, test them as submitted. If HEAD moves on while the change is under review, it may end up getting merged with HEAD, and we want to test the result.

To do that, make sure the "Hudson Template Project plugin" is installed, then set up a new job called "Gerrit Git Prep", and add a shell command build step (no other configuration):

#!/bin/sh -x
git checkout $GERRIT_BRANCH
git reset --hard remotes/origin/$GERRIT_BRANCH
git merge FETCH_HEAD
CODE=$?
if [ ${CODE} -ne 0 ]; then
  git reset --hard remotes/origin/$GERRIT_BRANCH
  exit ${CODE}
fi

Later, we will configure Jenkins jobs that we want to behave this way to use this build step.

Launchpad Sync

The launchpad user sync process consists of two scripts which are in openstack/openstack-ci on github: sync_launchpad_gerrit.py and insert_gerrit.py.

Both scripts should be run as gerrit2 on review.openstack.org

sync_launchpad_users.py runs and creates a python pickle file, users.pickle, with all of the user and group information. This is a long process. (12 minutes)

insert_gerrit.py reads the pickle file and applies it to the MySQL database. The gerrit caches must then be flushed.

Depends

apt-get install python-mysqldb python-openid python-launchpadlib

Keys

The key for the launchpad sync user is in ~/.ssh/launchpad_rsa. Connecting to Launchpad requires oauth authentication - so the first time sync_launchpad_gerrit.py is run, it will display a URL. Open this URL in a browser and log in to launchpad as the hudson-openstack user. Subsequent runs will run with cached credentials.

Running

cd openstack-ci
git pull
python sync_launchpad_gerrit.py
python insert_gerrit.py
ssh -i /home/gerrit2/.ssh/launchpadsync_rsa -p29418 review.openstack.org gerrit flush-caches

Gerrit IRC Bot

Installation

Ensure there is an up-to-date checkout of openstack-ci in ~gerrit2.

apt-get install python-irclib python-daemon
cp ~gerrit2/openstack-ci/gerritbot.init /etc/init.d
chmod a+x /etc/init.d/gerritbot
update-rc.d gerritbot defaults
su - gerrit2
ssh-keygen -f /home/gerrit2/.ssh/gerritbot_rsa

As a Gerrit admin, create a user for gerritbot:

cat ~gerrit2/.ssh/gerritbot_rsa | ssh -p29418 gerrit.openstack.org gerrit create-account --ssh-key - --full-name GerritBot gerritbot

Configure gerritbot, including which events should be announced:

cat <<EOF >~gerrit2/gerritbot.config
[ircbot]
nick=NICNAME
pass=PASSWORD
server=irc.freenode.net
channel=openstack-dev
port=6667

[gerrit]
user=gerritbot
key=/home/gerrit2/.ssh/gerritbot_rsa
host=review.openstack.org
port=29418
events=patchset-created, change-merged, x-vrif-minus-1, x-crvw-minus-2
EOF

sudo /etc/init.d/gerritbot start

Launchpad Bug Integration

In addition to the hyperlinks provided by the regex in gerrit.config, we use a Gerrit hook to update Launchpad bugs when changes referencing them are applied.

Installation

Ensure an up-to-date checkout of openstack-ci is in ~gerrit2.

apt-get install python-pyme
cp ~gerrit2/gerrit-hooks/change-merged ~gerrit2/review_site/hooks/

Create a GPG and register it with Launchpad:

gerrit2@gerrit:~$ gpg --gen-key

You need a Passphrase to protect your secret key.

gpg: gpg-agent is not available in this session
You don't want a passphrase - this is probably a *bad* idea!
I will do it anyway.  You can change your passphrase at any time,
using this program with the option "--edit-key".

We need to generate a lot of random bytes. It is a good idea to perform
some other action (type on the keyboard, move the mouse, utilize the
disks) during the prime generation; this gives the random number
generator a better chance to gain enough entropy.

Adding New Projects

Creating a Project in Gerrit

Using ssh key of a gerrit admin (you):

ssh -p 29418 review.openstack.org gerrit create-project --name openstack/PROJECT

If the project is an API project (eg, image-api), we want it to share some extra permissions that are common to all API projects (eg, the OpenStack documentation coordinators can approve changes, see acl). Run the following command to reparent the project if it is an API project:

ssh -p 29418 gerrit.openstack.org gerrit set-project-parent --parent API-Projects openstack/PROJECT

Add yourself to the "Project Bootstrappers" group in Gerrit which will give you permissions to push to the repo bypassing code review.

Do the initial push of the project with:

git push ssh://USERNAME@review.openstack.org:29418/openstack/PROJECT.git HEAD:refs/heads/master
git push --tags ssh://USERNAME@review.openstack.org:29418/openstack/PROJECT.git

Remove yourself from the "Project Bootstrappers" group, and then set the access controls as specified in acl.

Have Jenkins Monitor a Gerrit Project

In jenkins, under source code management:

select git
- url: ssh://jenkins@review.openstack.org:29418/openstack/project.git
- click "advanced"
  - refspec: $GERRIT_REFSPEC
  - click "advanced"
    - choosing stragety: gerrit trigger
select gerrit event under build triggers:
- plain openstack/project
- path **
Select "Add build step" under "Build"
- select "Use builders from another project"
- Template Project: "Gerrit Git Prep"
- make sure this build step is the first in the sequence

Create a Project in GitHub

As a github openstack admin:

Visit https://github.com/organizations/openstack
Click New Repository
Visit the gerrit team admin page
Add the new repository to the gerrit team

Pull requests can not be disabled for a project in Github, so instead we have a script that runs from cron to close any open pull requests with instructions to use Gerrit.

Edit openstack/openstack-ci-puppet:site.pp

and add the project to the list of github projects in the gerrit class for the gerrit.openstack.org node.

Migrating a Project from bzr

Add the bzr PPA and install bzr-fastimport:

add-apt-repository ppa:bzr/ppa apt-get update apt-get install bzr-fastimport

Doing this from the bzr PPA is important to ensure at least version 0.10 of bzr-fastimport.

Clone the git-bzr-ng from termie:

git clone https://github.com/termie/git-bzr-ng.git

In git-bzr-ng, you'll find a script, git-bzr. Put it somewhere in your path. Then, to get a git repo which contains the migrated bzr branch, run:

git bzr clone lp:${BRANCHNAME} ${LOCATION}

So, for instance, to do glance, you would do:

git bzr clone lp:glance glance

And you will then have a git repo of glance in the glance dir. This git repo is now suitable for uploading in to gerrit to become the new master repo.

Access Controls

High level goals:

Anonymous users can read all projects.
All registered users can perform informational code review (+/-1) on any project.
Jenkins can perform verification (blocking or approving: +/-1).
All registered users can create changes.
The OpenStack Release Manager and Jenkins can tag releases (push annotated tags).
Members of $PROJECT-core group can perform full code review (blocking or approving: +/- 2), and submit changes to be merged.
Members of openstack-release (Release Manager and PTLs) exclusively can perform full code review (blocking or approving: +/- 2), and submit changes to be merged on milestone-proposed branches.
Full code review (+/- 2) of API projects should be available to the -core group of the corresponding implementation project as well as to the OpenStack Documentation Coordinators.
Full code review of stable branches should be available to the -core group of the project as well as the openstack-stable-maint group.

To manage API project permissions collectively across projects, API projects are reparented to the "API-Projects" meta-project instead of "All-Projects". This causes them to inherit permissions from the API-Projects project (which, in turn, inherits from All-Projects).

These permissions try to achieve the high level goals:

All Projects (metaproject):
  refs/*
    read: anonymous
    push annotated tag: release managers, ci tools
    forge author identity: project bootstrappers  
    forge committer identity: project bootstrappers  
    push (w/ force push): project bootstrappers  
    create reference: project bootstrappers, release managers
    push merge commit: project bootstrappers

  refs/for/refs/*
    push: registered users

  refs/heads/*
    label code review -1/+1: registered users
    label verified -1/+1: ci tools
    submit: ci tools

  refs/heads/milestone-proposed
    label code review -2/+2: openstack-release (exclusive)

  refs/heads/stable/*
    label code review -2/+2: opestack-stable-maint

  refs/meta/config
    read: project owners

API Projects (metaproject):
  refs/*
    owner: Administrators
    forge author identity: openstack-doc-core
    forge committer identity: openstack-doc-core

  refs/heads/*
    label code review -2/+2: openstack-doc-core

project foo:
  refs/*
    owner: Administrators
    forge author identity: foo-core
    forge committer identity: foo-core

  refs/heads/*
    label code review -2/+2: foo-core
