programmatically add new repositories?

[Paul Mansfield]

Hi,

We want to switch from using pull requests with git (AWS CodeCommit) to using reviewboard (but still with AWS CC)

I can programmatically generate a list of repositories using the aws python library - we have over 30 - it's just a few lines of python.

Is there an API for adding repositories to our reviewboard server? We are happy to buy a PowerPack if necessary to make this easier.

thanks

Paul

Hi Paul,

We have an older API for creating repositories, but it's due for an overhaul and doesn't currently support creating repositories against CodeCommit. However, full repository creation can be scripted with Python directly on the Review Board server, so that's something that we can help go over, providing sample code and go over how to run it against your Review Board configuration.

Any communication with AWS CodeCommit will require a Power Pack license, so you'll definitely need that (the Git protocol is too limited so we have to talk directly to the APIs for Git hosting services instead).

Hi,

thanks for coming back to me.

if you have sample code for getting a list of repositories and creating them, that would be most excellent. I have python scripts which scan our AWS/CC repositories and when new ones appear, add them to our Concourse CI system, or Sphinx autodoc etc, so being able to plug into reviewboard would be ideal.

we're in the process of working out exactly what we need for our PPack licence, hopefully I should have authorisation to buy it soon.

thanks

Paul
