Need integration with Cliosoft.

Need integration with Cliosoft. Is it possible to make custom solution here?

[Christian Hammond]

Hi,

We don’t have support today. I’m not very familiar with their product line, or their integration options.

We’re not in a position right now to be able to add support. However, Review Board is extensible, so it’s possible to write your own, if their API or command line tools are sufficient. I can go into that further if that’s something you want to explore.

Hi Christian,

Thank you. I'm definitely want to explore this. We're interested in support, cause now we have no solution for code review.

I can send you command line description. Will it help?

Hi Andrey,

It might be doable, but it's not something that we ourselves can take on for the next few months. I can guide you toward building your own support, and we might be able to take it over down the road, but we're in the middle of a couple major concurrent releases right now.

Hi Christian,

I am interested in building our own support. Could you let me know the guide/steps to follow?

Regards,
Prashant

[Christian Hammond]

Hi Prashant,

This will require creating a Review Board extension, which is done in Python. You'll need some familiarity with Python development and creating packages. We have a basic guide for extension setup here:

https://www.reviewboard.org/docs/manual/3.0/extending/

You'll need to subclass SCMTool (https://github.com/reviewboard/reviewboard/blob/release-3.0.x/reviewboard/scmtools/core.py#L448) and implement, at a minimum:

Attributes:

* scmtool_id

* name

* diffs_use_absolute_paths

Methods:

* get_file

* file_exists

* parse_diff_revision

* get_repository_info

* get_parser

Depending on the diff format, you'll need to implement a diff parser that extracts revision and filename information for each file. This information must be enough to look up a file from the repository remotely. If the native diff format does not contain this information, a custom diff format and diff generation tool must be created to do it. We are working on a new standard for extensible diffs that would make this easy, but we don't have tooling for it yet.

You can see the other implementations in https://github.com/reviewboard/reviewboard/tree/release-3.0.x/reviewboard/scmtools for reference and inspiration.

Hello,

I was searching for review board integration with Cliosoft and came upon this thread. Has any progress been made in this matter? It is surprising that reviewboard supports all major version control tools except Cliosoft which is widely used for SOC development in the silicon valley.

Let me know if something is available which we can start from.

Thanks

Satya

Hi Satya,

I'm sorry, there's no support today. This thread contains the only requests we've had for it so far. It's on our radar as a possibility for the future, but not on any immediate roadmaps. When we looked, we didn't see any clear information on how we'd integrate with their products.

Can you tell me a bit more about what you'd be looking for in Cliosoft support?

Christian

Hi Christian,

Today we use reviewboard with SVN. We want to deploy the same working model with SOS.

1. engineer prepares an SVN diff of the local changes

2. engineer creates a new reviewboard request and inputs two things - the diff file and the path to the file in the SVN server

3. once we receive two ship its in reviewboard, engineer checks in the file into SVN and mentions the http link to the reviewboard in the Log comment.

I guess we need two things then in order to do the same with SOS

1. reviewboard should understand a SOS diff file syntax (otherwise we have to write our internal script to convert a SOS diff file to a SVN diff file)

2. reviewboard should be able to point to the file in SOS database if the path is given.

Thanks

Satyajit
