Process Group Tools

Review Sheet

In order to keep track of who should review what, we created a review sheet based on the 2019 process group. Our template for the review sheet can be found here. Open the template, go to "File" -> "Make a copy" and save it to your own drive.

To setup the sheet script:

  1. Go to "Tools" -> "Script editor".
  2. If the script is already there go to step (4)
  3. If the script is not there, copy the script from here and paste it in.
  4. Generate an access token for the AAUGiraf GitHub account, and set token variable.

The review sheet has the following functionality:

  • Load pull request information from GitHub.
  • Calculate line change per pull request and total for each development team.
  • Warn about missing pull requests, and provide an overview of them.

Review Script

In order to make it faster and easier for us to hand out reviews, we created a python script to do most of it for us.

The script has to be setup before using it. When it is setup, it can be used to:

  • Tag teams on discord in the #review channel,
  • Add the teams as reviewers on the pull request and
  • Add the review checklist as a comment on the pull request.

All in one run.

The review script can be found here

GitHub Webhooks

In order to keep track of what happens in the GitHub repositories, we created webhooks to send a message on our Discord server in a #github channel. This can also be done with Slack.

We recommend making the channel opt-in (in Discord by using a role), in order to not spam the members. A webhook can be on GitHub for each relevant repository. For example, for the weekplanner at: https://github.com/aau-giraf/weekplanner/settings/hooks
