Data Sources File Sections

The data sources file (typically named projects.json) is aimed to describe the repositories grouped by project that will be monitored on your dashboard.

The project file enables the users to list the instances of the software development tools to analyse, such as local and remote Git repositories, the URLs of GitHub and GitLab issue trackers and the name of Slack channels. Furthermore, it also allows the users to organize these instances into nested groups, which structure is reflected in the visualization artifacts (i.e., documents and dashboards). Groups can be useful to represent projects within a single company, sub-projects within a large project such as Linux and Eclipse, or the organizations within a collaborative project.

1. First level: project names
2. Second level: data sources and metadata
3. Third level: data source URLs

There are some filters and a special section:

• Filter --filter-no-collection=true: This filter is used to show old enriched data within the dashboards from repositories that don't exist anymore in upstream.
• Filter --filter-raw and the section unknown: The data sources will only collected at the section unknown but this allow to add the same source in different sections to enrich using the filter --filter-raw.
• Section unknown: If the data source is only under this section it will be enriched as project main.

{
    "Chaoss": {
        "gerrit": [
            "gerrit.chaoss.org --filter-raw=data.projects:CHAOSS"
        ]
        "git": [
            "https:/github.com/chaoss/grimoirelab-perceval",
            "https:/github.com/chaoss/grimoirelab-sirmordred"
        ],
        "github": [
            "https:/github.com/chaoss/grimoirelab-perceval --filter-no-collection=true",
            "https:/github.com/chaoss/grimoirelab-sirmordred"
        ]
    },
    "GrimoireLab": {
        "gerrit": [
            "gerrit.chaoss.org --filter-raw=data.projects:GrimoireLab"
        ],
        "meta": {
            "title": "GrimoireLab",
            "type": "Dev",
            "program" : "Bitergia",
            "state": "Operating"

        ],
        "confluence": [
            "https://wiki.chaoss.org"
        ]
}

In the projects.json above:

• The data included in the repo gerrit.chaoss.org will be collected entirely since the repo is listed in the unknown section. However only the project GrimoireLab will be enriched as declared in the GrimoireLab section.
• In the section Chaoss in the data source github the repository grimoirelab-perceval is not collected for raw index but it will enriched in the enriched index.
• In the section GrimoireLab the metadata will showed in the enriched index as extra fields.
• In the section unknown the data source confluence will be enriched as the project main.

The following sub-sections show how the data sources that is not an URL must be included in the data sources file in order to be analyzed.

gitlab

GitLab issues and merge requests need to be configured in two different sections.

{
    "Chaoss": {
        "gitlab:issue": [
            "https://gitlab.com/Molly/first",
            "https://gitlab.com/Molly/second"
        ],
        "gitlab:merge": [
            "https://gitlab.com/Molly/first",
            "https://gitlab.com/Molly/second"
        ],
    }
}

If a given GitLab repository is under more than 1 level, all the slashes / starting from the second level have to be replaced by %2F. For instance, for a repository with a structure similar to this one https://gitlab.com/Molly/lab/first.

{
    "Chaoss": {
        "gitlab:issue": [
            "https://gitlab.com/Molly/lab%2Ffirst"
        ],
        "gitlab:merge": [
            "https://gitlab.com/Molly/lab%2Ffirst"
        ],
    }
}

mbox

For mbox files, it is needed the name of the mailing list and the path where the mboxes can be found. In the example below, the name of the mailing list is set to "mirageos-devel".

{
    "Chaoss": {
        "mbox": [
            "mirageos-devel /home/bitergia/mbox/mirageos-devel/"
        ]
    }
}

meetup

For meetup groups it is only needed the identifier of the meetup group.

{
    "Chaoss": {
        "meetup": [
        "Alicante-Bitergia-Users-Group",
        "South-East-Bitergia-User-Group"
        ]
    }
}

nntp

The way to setup netnews is adding the server and the news channel to be monitored. In the example below, the news.myproject.org is the server name.

{
    "Chaoss": {
        "nntp": [
            "news.myproject.org mozilla.dev.tech.crypto.checkins",
            "news.myproject.org mozilla.dev.tech.electrolysis",
            "news.myproject.org mozilla.dev.tech.gfx",
            "news.myproject.org mozilla.dev.tech.java"
            ]
    }
}

slack

The information needed to monitor slack channels is the channel id.

{
    "Chaoss": {
        "slack": [
            "A195YQBLL",
            "A495YQBM2"
        ]
    }
}

supybot

For supybot files, it is needed the name of the IRC channel and the path where the logs can be found. In the example below, the name of the channel is set to "irc://irc.freenode.net/atomic".

{
    "Chaoss": {
        "supybot": [
            "irc://irc.freenode.net/atomic /home/bitergia/irc/percevalbot/logs/ChannelLogger/freenode/#atomic"
        ]
    }
}

twitter

For twitter it is only needed the name of the hashtag.

{
    "Chaoss": {
        "twitter": [
            "bitergia"
        ]
}

Micro Mordred

Micro Mordred is a simplified version of Mordred which omits the use of its scheduler. Thus, Micro Mordred allows to run single Mordred tasks (e.g., raw collection, enrichment) per execution.

Micro Mordred is located in the /utils folder of this same repository. It can be executed via command line, its parameters are summarized below:

--debug: execute Micro Mordred in debug mode

--raw: activate raw task
--arthur: use Arthur to collect the raw data

--enrich: activate enrich task

--identities: activate merge identities task

--panels: activate panels task

--cfg: path of the onfiguration file
--backends: list of cfg sections where the active tasks will be executed

Examples of possible executions are shown below:

cd .../grimoirelab-sirmordred/utils/
micro.py --raw --enrich --cfg ./setup.cfg --backends git #  execute the Raw and Enrich tasks for the Git cfg section
micro.py --panels # execute the Panels task to load the Sigils panels to Kibiter

Getting started

SirModred relies on ElasticSearch, Kibiter and MySQL/MariaDB. The current versions used are:

• ElasticSearch 6.1.0
• Kibiter 6.1.4
• MySQL/MariaDB (5.7.24/10.0) There are 3 options to get started with SirMordred:

Source code

You will need to install ElasticSearch (6.1.0), Kibiter (6.1.4) and a MySQL/MariaDB database (5.7.24/10.0), and the following components:

• SirModred
• ELK
• King Arthur
• Graal
• Perceval
• Perceval for Mozilla
• Perceval for OPNFV
• Perceval for Puppet
• Perceval for FINOS
• SortingHat
• Sigils
• Kidash
• Toolkit
• Cereslib
• Manuscripts

Source code and docker

You will have to install the GrimoireLab components listed above, and use the following docker-compose to have ElasticSearch, Kibiter and MariaDB. Note that you can omit the mariadb section in case you have MySQL/MariaDB already installed in your system.

elasticsearch:
  restart: on-failure:5
  image: bitergia/elasticsearch:6.1.0-secured
  command: elasticsearch -Enetwork.bind_host=0.0.0.0 -Ehttp.max_content_length=2000mb
  environment:
    - ES_JAVA_OPTS=-Xms2g -Xmx2g
  ports:
    - 9200:9200

kibiter:
  restart: on-failure:5
  image: bitergia/kibiter:secured-v6.1.4-2
  environment:
    - PROJECT_NAME=Development

  log_driver: "json-file"
  log_opt:
      max-size: "100m"
      max-file: "3"

Only docker

Follow the instruction in the GrimoireLab tutorial to have SirMordred in a container

Setting up a Pycharm dev environment

This section provides details about how to set up a dev environment using PyCharm. The first step consists in forking the GitHub repos below and cloning them to a target local folder (e.g., sources).

• SirModred
• ELK
• King Arthur
• Graal
• Perceval
• Perceval for Mozilla
• Perceval for OPNFV
• Perceval for Puppet
• Perceval for FINOS
• SortingHat
• Sigils
• Kidash
• Toolkit
• Cereslib
• Manuscripts

Each local repo should have two remotes: origin points to the forked repo, while upstream points to the original CHAOSS repo. An example is provided below.

~/sources/perceval$ git remote -v
origin	https://github.com/valeriocos/perceval (fetch)
origin	https://github.com/valeriocos/perceval (push)
upstream	https://github.com/chaoss/grimoirelab-perceval (fetch)
upstream	https://github.com/chaoss/grimoirelab-perceval (push)

In order to add a remote to a Git repository, you can use the following command:

~/sources/perceval$ git remote add upstream https://github.com/chaoss/grimoirelab-perceval

Then, you can download the PyCharm community edition, and create a project in the grimoirelab-sirmordred directory. PyCharm will automatically create a virtual env, where you should install the dependencies listed in each requirements.txt, excluding the ones concerning the grimoirelab components.

To install the dependencies, you can click on File -> Settings -> Project -> Project Interpreter, and then the + located on the top right corner (see figure below).

Later, you can add the dependencies to the grimoirelab components via File -> Settings -> Project -> Project Structure. The final results should be something similar to the image below.

Finally, you can use the docker-compose shown at Section source-code-and-docker, define a setup.cfg and projects.json, and run the following commands, which will collect and enrich the data coming from the git and cocom sections and upload the corresponding panels to Kibiter:

micro.py --raw --enrich --cfg ./setup.cfg --backends git cocom
micro.py --panels --cfg ./setup.cfg

Optionally, you can create a configuration in PyCharm to speed up the executions (Run -> Edit configuration -> +). The final results should be something similar to the image below.
