Scans GitLab instance and ranks projects against a set of criteria. Can be used to identiy projects that may have too much metadata/size to reliably export or import.

Project description

Evaluate

Evaluate is a script that can be run to gather information about projects from a gitlab self-managed instance. This information is useful to the GitLab Professional Services (PS) team to accurately scope migration services.

Use Case

GitLab PS plans to share this script with a Customer to run against their self managed instance. Then the customer can send back the output files to enable GitLab engagement managers to scope engagements accurately.

Install

pip install gitlab_evaluate

Usage

# For evaluating a GitLab instance
evaluate-gitlab -p <access-token-with-api-admin-privileges> -s https://gitlab.example.com

# For evaluating a single git repo's CI readiness
evaluate-ci-readiness -r|--repo <git-repo-url>

Using a docker container

Docker containers with evaluate installed are also available to use.

Local usage

# Spin up container
docker run --name evaluate -it registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/professional-services-automation/tools/utilities/evaluate:latest /bin/bash

# In docker shell
evaluate-ci-readiness -r|--repo <git-repo-url>
evaluate-gitlab -p <access-token-with-api-admin-privileges> -s https://gitlab.example.com

Example GitLab CI job using evaluate ci readiness script

evaluate node-js:
  stage: test
  script:
    - evaluate-ci-readiness --repo=https://github.com/nodejs/node.git
  artifacts:
    paths:
      - node.csv

To test, consider standing up local docker container of gitlab. Provision a personal access token of a user who has system admin priviledges. Create multiple projects with varying number of commits, pipelines, merge requests, issues. Consider importing an open source repo or using GPT to add projects to the system.
