A tool to manage identities
Project description
Description
A tool to manage identities.
Sorting Hat maintains an SQL database with identities coming (potentially) from different sources. Identities corresponding to the same real person can be merged in the same unique identity, with a unique uuid. For each unique identity, a profile can be defined, with the name and other data to show for the corresponding person by default.
In addition, each unique identity can be related to one or more affiliations, for different time periods. This will usually correspond to different organizations in which the person was employed during those time periods.
Sorting Hat is a part of the GrimoireLab toolset, which provides for Python modules and scripts to analyze data sources with information about software development, and allows to produce interactive dashboards to visualize that information.
In the context of GrimoireLab, Sorting Hat is usually run after data is retrieved with Perceval, to store the identities obtained into its database, and later merge them into unique identities (and maybe affiliate them).
Source code and contributions
All the source code is available in the Sorting Hat GitHub repository. Please, upload pull requests if you have proposals to change the source code, and open an issue if you want to report a bug, ask for a new feature, or just comment something.
Usage
usage: sortinghat [--help] [-c <file>] [-u <user>] [-p <password>] [--host <host>] [--port <port>] [-d <name>] command [<cmd_args>] The most commonly used sortinghat commands are: add Add identities affiliate Affiliate identities autoprofile Auto complete profiles blacklist List, add or delete entries from the blacklist config Get and set configuration parameters countries List information about countries enroll Enroll identities into organizations export Export data (i.e identities) from the registry init Create an empty registry load Import data (i.e identities, organizations) on the registry merge Merge unique identities mv Move an identity into a unique identity log List enrollment information available in the registry orgs List, add or delete organizations and domains profile Edit profile rm Remove identities from the registry show Show information about a unique identity unify Merge identities using a matching algorithm withdraw Remove identities from organizations General options: -h, --help show this help message and exit -c FILE, --config FILE set configuration file -u USER, --user USER database user name -p PASSWORD, --password PASSWORD database user password -d DATABASE, --database DATABASE name of the database where the registry will be stored --host HOST name of the host where the database server is running --port PORT port of the host where the database server is running Run 'sortinghat <command> --help' to get information about a specific command.
Installation
From pypi
You can install sortinghat as a package from the pypi repository:
$ pip install sortinghat
Native
You can install sortinghat just by running setup.py script:
$ python setup.py install
This will install it in the python default directories in your system.
If you don’t install sortinghat with root privileges, or don’t want to install it in the default directories, you can also use the source code directory, as cloned from the main git repo. It is enough to configure your $PATH and $PYTHONPATH so that sortinghat, and the Python modules it needs, are found.
Add to your $PATH the directory which contains the sortinghat executables:
$ export PATH=$PATH:sortinghatdir/bin
In $PYHTONPATH, you need to include sortinghat as well. If sortinghatdir is the path where sortinghat is installed:
$ export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:sortinghatdir
You are ready to use sortinghat!
Docker
You can use our image from DockerHub (grimoirelab/sortinghat) and skip the docker build step. If you prefer to build the image yourself execute:
$ docker build -t grimoirelab/sortinghat .
Next step would be to start a MySQL docker container for data storage:
$ docker run --name mysql \
-e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=sortinghat \
-d mysql
Run the sortinghat docker container in interactive mode:
$ docker run -i -t --rm \
--link mysql:mysql \
-e SORTINGHAT_DB_HOST=mysql \
-e SORTINGHAT_DB_PASSWORD=sortinghat \
-e SORTINGHAT_DB_DATABASE=sortinghat \
grimoirelab/sortinghat \
/bin/bash
Now you can initialize sortinghat with the database name sortinghat:
$ sortinghat init sortinghat
You are ready to use sortinghat and explore the commands documented below. Have fun!
Configuration
Set the database parameters via the config command:
$ sortinghat config set db.host <mysql-host> $ sortinghat config set db.user <user> $ sortinghat config set db.password <password> $ sortinghat config set db.database <name> $ sortinghat config set db.port <port>
Alternatively you can set environment variables:
$ export SORTINGHAT_DB_HOST=<mysql-host> $ export SORTINGHAT_DB_USER=<user> $ export SORTINGHAT_DB_PASSWORD=<password> $ export SORTINGHAT_DB_DATABASE=<name> $ export SORTINGHAT_DB_PORT=<port>
After this initialize a new database:
$ sortinghat init <name>
Compatibility between versions
SortingHat databases previous to 0.3.0 are no longer compatible. The seed used to generate identities UUIDs changed and for that reason, these ids should be re-generated.
The next steps will restore the database generating new UUIDs for each identity but keeping the data and relationships between them.
Export data
$ sortinghat export --orgs orgs.json $ sortinghat export --identities identities.json
Remove the database and/or create a new one with sortinghat init
Load data, this will regenerate the UUIDs
$ sortinghat load orgs.json $ sortinghat load identities.json
Basic commands
Add some unique identities ``` $ sortinghat add –name “John Smith” –email “jsmith@example.com” –username “jsmith” –source scm New identity a9b403e150dd4af8953a52a4bb841051e4b705d9 to a9b403e150dd4af8953a52a4bb841051e4b705d9
