Tacker Development Process
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Enhancement to Tacker functionality can be done using one of the following
|
|
two development process options. The choice depends on the complexity of the
|
|
enhancement.
|
|
|
|
Request for Enhancement (RFE) Process
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
The developer, or an operator, can write up the requested enhancement in a
|
|
Tacker launchpad [#]_ bug.
|
|
|
|
* The requester need to mark the bug with "RFE" tag.
|
|
* The bug will be in the initial "New" state.
|
|
* The requester and team will have a discussion on the enhancement in the
|
|
launchpad bug.
|
|
* Once the discussion is over a tacker-core team member will acknowledge the
|
|
validity of this feature enhancement by moving it to the "Confirmed" state.
|
|
* Developers submit patchsets to implement the enhancement using the bug-id.
|
|
Note, if there are multiple patchsets Partial-Bug header should be used
|
|
instead of Closes-Bug in the commit message.
|
|
* Once all the patchsets are merged the bug will be moved to the "Completed"
|
|
state.
|
|
* Developer(s) are expected to add a devref describing the usage of the feature
|
|
and other related topics in tacker/doc/source/devref directory.
|
|
|
|
This process is recommended for smaller enhancements that can be described
|
|
easily and it is relatively easy to implement in a short period of time.
|
|
|
|
Blueprint and Tacker-Specs process
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
The developer, or an operator, can write up the requested enhancement by
|
|
submitting a patchset to the tacker-spec repository [#]_.
|
|
|
|
* The patchset should follow the template specified in [#]_
|
|
* The requester should also create a corresponding blueprint for the
|
|
enhancement proposal in launchpad [#]_
|
|
* The requester and the team will have a discussion on the tacker-spec
|
|
writeup using gerrit.
|
|
* The patchset will be merged into the tackers-specs repository if the
|
|
tacker-core team decides this is a valid feature enhancement. A patchset
|
|
may also be rejected with clear reasoning.
|
|
* Tacker core team will also mark the blueprint Definition field to Approved.
|
|
* Developer submits one or more patchsets to implement the enhancement. The
|
|
commit message should use "Implements: blueprint <blueprint-name>" using
|
|
the same name as the blueprint name.
|
|
* Once all the patchsets are merged the blueprint will be as "Implemented" by
|
|
the tacker core team.
|
|
* The developer is expected to add a devref describing the usage of the feature
|
|
and other related topics in tacker/doc/source/devref directory.
|
|
|
|
This process is recommended for medium to large enhancements that needs
|
|
significant code-changes (LOC), community discussions and debates.
