Description
Steffen Pingel
Some notes from a conversation at EclipseCon: Gerrit has a JSON remote API that supports interactions in the web interface and could be leveraged by a Mylyn connector. Alternatively communication could be handled by JGit through ssh which may simplify authentication etc. It would depend on the specific needs of the connector which implementation (or a mix of both) would work best. The JGit/Gerrit project is willing to support changes or enhancements to the remote API in either case. On the Mylyn end the following things would need to be completed for a working proto-type: * Review data model * Support for remote access to Gerrit * Some configuration UI for Gerrit repositories * Basic task editor integration to view review details The first step would be to provide a data model, preferably using a model driven approach extending the data model that the Mylyn Review project will provide. For a GSoC project there would be no need to provide offline support or generic APIs or build on a framework. Extraction of a common review framework would be out of scope and could happen at a later point. The data model would be populated using the remote API and a basic UI layer would be needed to interact with Gerrit repositories and reviews etc. For a GSoC project the UI layer could be kept very simple since most of that should be provided in a generic way by the Mylyn Review project and could be integrated at a later point. It is likely that the UI layer will be work in progress while the Gerrit connector is developed. Created attachment 178793 [details]

AbstractGerritService.java
Thanks everyone! I have imported the initial version of the connector into the Git repository. Please note that some of the dependencies are still under IP review and not yet available on Eclipse.org. |
