[dsdp-pmc] DSDP SearchCVS is live!
|
Dear DSDP
PMC,
over the past month
I've been improving the TM Release Engineering
Scripts, and the
services available on our vserver dsdp.eclipse.org.
The first result of
these efforts is SearchCVS:
This is a SQL
database created daily out of the CVS logs. It allows
extremely fast
searching for any commits by time or comment. If
you use a common
convention for adding bugzilla references to your
commit comments, it
can also navigate directly into Bugzilla for you.
This was first
started by the Modeling project, and I adopted it now
for us in DSDP.
Would you
like to have it for your project as well?`
It's very
easy:
1.) Let me know (by
E-Mail) what CVS modules you want to
get indexed and I'll set up the cronjob on
dsdp.eclipse.org
2.) Add some
variables to your /dsdp/<project>/_projectCommon.php
file -- I can help you with those, or you take
the ones from TM
as example. These variables help associating
Bugzilla with
your CVS modules.
3.) Add the
/dsdp/tm/searchcvs.php file to your website, and
reference it e.g. from your navigation bar
(_projectCommon.php
again).
That's it! For more
details about the background, see
Fortunatley you
won't need to fiddle with MySQL server setup,
and all that stuff
because I did it for you already :-)
The SearchCVS
database is the basis for more advanced features,
like automatic
release notes generation or build news. Watch out for
future enhancements,
or see what the modeling team is already doing:
Cheers,
