Pygerrit - Client library for interacting with Gerrit Code Review
=================================================================
Pygerrit is a Python library to interact with the
`Gerrit Code Review`_ system over ssh.
Installation
------------
To install pygerrit, simply:
.. code-block:: bash
$ pip install pygerrit
Prerequisites
-------------
Pygerrit runs on Ubuntu 10.4 and Mac OSX 10.8.4 with Python 2.6.x and 2.7.x.
Support for other platforms and Python versions is not guaranteed.
For easier connection to the review server over ssh, the ssh connection
parameters (hostname, port, username) can be given in the user's ``.ssh/config``
file:
.. code-block:: bash
Host review
HostName review.example.net
Port 29418
User username
SSH Interface
-------------
The SSH interface can be used to run commands on the Gerrit server.
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> from pygerrit.ssh import GerritSSHClient
>>> client = GerritSSHClient("review")
>>> result = client.run_gerrit_command("version")
>>> result
<GerritSSHCommandResult [version]>
>>> result.stdout
<paramiko.ChannelFile from <paramiko.Channel 2 (closed) -> <paramiko.Transport at 0xd2387d90L (cipher aes128-cbc, 128 bits) (active; 0 open channel(s))>>>
>>> result.stdout.read()
'gerrit version 2.6.1\n'
>>>
Event Stream
------------
Gerrit offers a ``stream-events`` command that is run over ssh, and returns back
a stream of events (new change uploaded, change merged, comment added, etc) as
JSON text.
This library handles the parsing of the JSON text from the event stream,
encapsulating the data in event objects (Python classes), and allowing the
client to fetch them from a queue. It also allows users to easily add handling
of custom event types, for example if they are running a customised Gerrit
installation with non-standard events.
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> from pygerrit.client import GerritClient
>>> client = GerritClient("review")
>>> client.gerrit_version()
'2.6.1'
>>> client.start_event_stream()
>>> client.get_event()
<CommentAddedEvent>: <Change 12345, platform/packages/apps/Example, master> <Patchset 1, 5c4b2f76297f04fbab77eb8c3462e087bc4b6f90> <Account Bob Example (bob.example@example.com)>
>>> client.get_event()
<CommentAddedEvent>: <Change 67890, platform/frameworks/example, master> <Patchset 2, c7d4f9956c80b1df66a66d66dea3960e71de4910> <Account John Example (john.example@example.com)>
>>> client.stop_event_stream()
>>>
Refer to the `example`_ script for a more detailed example of how the SSH
event stream interface works.
