GSoC Week 9

This week officialy marked the end of the second coding phase. Most of my work this week involved working on the Pull Request Worker

Meeting Summary

Date: Monday, 22nd July 2019

• @sgoggins cleared a few doubts I had regarding the Pull Request Worker
• Discussed creating new API endpoints that allow a user to add Repo-Groups and Repos to Augur. For example a POST request on repo-groups/ creates a Repo-Group & a POST request on repos/ adds a repository and begins the data collection process.

Work Done This Week

• Metrics Implemented:

  • Reviews: Time series of the number of new reviews or pull requests opened within a certain period.
  • Reviews Accepted: Time series of the number of accepted reviews or pull requests merged within a certain period.
  • Reviews Declined: Time series of the number of declined reviews or pull requests closed within a certain period.
  • Review Duration: Time since a Review or Pull Request is proposed until it is accepted.

• GitHub Pull Requests Worker:
  The Pull Request Worker now also gathers the following pull request data:

  • Labels
  • Events
  • Reviewers
  • Assignees
  • Comments
  • PR Metadata (such as Head & Base details)

Pull Requests:

• Update PR worker
• PR metric implementations & PR worker bug fixes
• Update Pull Request Worker

Challenges Encountered

• The main challenge for this week was debugging the Pull Request Worker. It required quite a bit of testing. The debugging process isn’t over yet. I plan to continue debugging the worker while working on implementing pull request related metrics.

Future Work

• Continue working on the Pull Request Worker.
• Implement Pull Request related metrics
• More future plans for next week to be decided in the next meeting on Monday, 29th July 2019.
