Highfive

This repository is no longer running on rust-lang infrastructure; instead the relevant code lives in triagebot. This repository has been archived to retain it for the future.


GitHub hooks to provide an encouraging atmosphere for new contributors. Highfive assigns pull requests to users based on rules in configuration files. You can see Highfive in action in several Rust repositories. See the rust-lang/rust pull requests, for example.

This project drives the @rust-highfive bot and was originally a fork of servo/highfive, used by Servo and Servo's @highfive bot. For more history see the comments in #35.

Installation

To install highfive, you just need to execute the setup.py script or use pip directly. Both commands have to be executed from the directory where setup.py is located.

$ python setup.py install

or

$ pip install . # the dot is important ;)

Testing

Before running tests, make sure the test-requirements are installed by running the following command:

$ pip install -r test-requirements.txt

Once the dependencies are installed, you can run all tests by executing:

$ pytest

Tests are labeled as "unit", "integration", and "hermetic". All unit tests are hermetic, but only some integration tests are hermetic. A non-hermetic test makes network requests. To run only hermetic tests do:

$ pytest -m hermetic

Hermetic tests are run in PR builds. All tests are run in daily cron builds.

Adding a Project

To make rust-highfive interact with a new repo, add a configuration file in highfive/configs, with a filename of the form reponame.json. The file should look like:

{
    "groups":{
        "all": ["@username", "@otheruser"],
        "subteamname": ["@subteammember", "@username"]
    },
    "dirs":{
        "dirname":  ["subteamname", "@anotheruser"]
    },
    "contributing": "http://project.tld/contributing_guide.html",
    "expected_branch": "develop",
    "mentions": {
        "src/doc": {
            "message": "Documentation was changed.",
            "reviewers": ["@DocumentationReviewPerson"]
        },
        "test.rs": {
            "message": "Some changes occurred in a test file.",
            "reviewers": ["@TestReviewPerson"]
        }
    },
    "new_pr_labels": ["S-waiting-for-review"]
}

The groups section allows you to alias lists of usernames. You should specify at least one user in the group "all". Other keys are optional.

In the dirs section, you map directories of the repository to users or groups who're eligible to review PRs. This section can be left blank.

contributing specifies the contribution guide link in the message which welcomes new contributors to the repository. If contributing is not present, the contributing chapter of the rustc-dev-guide will be linked instead.

If PRs should be filed against a branch other than master, specify the correct destination in the expected_branch field. If expected_branch is left out, highfive will assume that PRs should be filed against master. The bot posts a warning on any PR that targets an unexpected branch.

The mentions section is used by Highfive when new PRs are created. If a PR diff modifies files in the paths configured in the mentions section, a comment is made with the given message that mentions the specified users. Mentions paths have either one or two behaviors.

  • Every path in a diff is checked whether it begins with a path in the mentions list. If there is a match, the mention comment is made.
  • If a path in the diff ends with a mentions path ending in .rs, the mention is a match, and a comment is made.

new_pr_labels contains a list of labels to apply to each new PR. If it's left out or empty, no new labels will be applied.

Enabling a Repository

Once the PR updating the repository configuration has been merged, run the update-webhooks.py script at the root of this repository:

$ python3 update-webhooks.py

The script requires the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable to be set to a valid GitHub API token, and it will make sure the configuration of all the repositories you have admin access to is correct.

Local Development

You can run Highfive on your machine and configure a repository to use your local instance. Here is one approach for running a local server:

  • Create a virtualenv to isolate the Python environment from the rest of the system, and install highfive in it:
    $ virtualenv -p python2 env
    $ env/bin/pip install -e .
    
  • Run the highfive command to start a development server on port 8000:
    $ env/bin/highfive
    
  • Your Highfive instance will need to be reachable from outside of your machine. One way to do this is to use ngrok to get a temporary domain name that proxies to your Highfive instance. Additionally, you will be able to use ngrok's inspector to easily examine and replay the requests.
  • Set up the webhook by following the instructions in Enabling a Repo, substituting your local Highfive IP address or domain name and port number (if necessary).
  • Obtain an OAuth token. In the account you are creating the token in, go to https://github.com/settings/tokens. Grant access to the repository scope.
  • Put the authorization information obtained in the previous step into a file named .env in the top of the repository (i.e., the directory containing this file). Here is a template of what it should look like:
    HIGHFIVE_GITHUB_TOKEN=your-token
    
    Do not check in this file or commit your OAuth token to a repository in any other way. It is a secret.

Here are some details to be aware of:

  • For Highfive to know how to select reviewers for your repository, you need a configuration file in highfive/configs.
  • Highfive ignores comments from the integration user near the top of new_commment in highfive/newpr.py.

Docker

Alternatively, you can build a Docker image that runs Highfive.

$ docker build -t highfive .

To run a container, you must mount a config file. Assuming you are launching a container from a directory containing a config file, you can do the following.

$ docker run -d --rm --name highfive -p 8000:80 -e HIGHFIVE_GITHUB_TOKEN=token -e HIGHFIVE_WEBHOOK_SECRET=secret highfive

At this point, Highfive is accessible at http://localhost:8080.
