Programmatically add commentlink section in project.config

[Inderjot Kaur Ratol]

Hi All,

I need to write the commentlink section in project.config file from the code. I do not want to edit the project config file from UI or console each time I need to change the commentlink section. As far as I know, gerrit provides a way to add entries in project.config using `ProjectConfigEntry` exntension. My requirements does not allow me to put anoher field in the UI to get "commentlink" configuration for each project.

As per the existing code (based on my understanding), one can directly edit the project.config to add commentlink section and gerrit will respect those config settings over the global settings in gerrit.config. However, I failed to find how it can be done programmatically. Please point me to the right code if it already exists. If not, is it something that is under consideration for implementation currently or in future.

Thank you.

I'm not sure if I understood your question but... what about the following commands?

$ git clone https://USER@GERRIT-SERVER/a/REPO-PATH

$ git fetch refs/meta/config

$ git checkout FETCH_HEAD

CHANGE-ANY-WAY-YOU-LIKE-IT project.config

$ git add project.config

$ git commit

$ git push origin HEAD:refs/meta/config

Thank you Marcelo for your reply.

I apologize for not phrasing it clearly. My requirement is not to use command line or GUI to manually change the project.config. I am looking for already existing Gerrit API or functionality which allows me to write "commentlink" section in project.config.

For example:

I am able to write configuration related to any plugin using PluginConfig class and then attaching it to the ProjectConfig instance. But, I cannot find a similar way to write "commentlink" section.

So my question is if there exists a way already or is it something that will need to be implemented in order to achieve this functionality.

Thank you.
