Hoa Nguyen eac06ad681 python: Fix multiline quotes in a single line
An example case,
```python
mem_side_port = RequestPort(
    "This port sends requests and " "receives responses"
)
```

This is the residue of running the python formatter.
This is done by finding all tokens matching the regex `"\s"(?![.;"])`
and manually replacing them by empty strings.

Gerrit Bot

Getting Username and Password

Gerrit REST API uses the account username and password for the authentication purpose. They are necessary to make a request.

The following are steps to obtain the username and password from .gitcookies files,

  • Follow this link https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/new-password and copy the authenticating script to a new file.

  • After that, run the extract_gitcookies.py to extract the username and password from the authenticating script. For example, the following command extracts the username and password from gerrit_auth_script and writes them to .data/auth,

python3 extract_gitcookies.py gerrit_auth_script .data/auth

The .data/auth will have two lines: the first line contains the username and the second line is the corresponding password. Notes:

  • The above link, https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/new-password, generates a new pair of username and password per visit.
  • The extract_gitcookies.py file is also able to read from .gitcookies file. For example, python3 extract_gitcookies.py ~/.gitcookies output will write all pairs of username and password in two lines per pair to output.
  • The gerrit-bot only reads the pair of username and password appearing in the first and the second line in the .data/auth file.

Gerrit Bot

The structure of the Gerrit bot is as follows:

  • The GerritBotConfig class should contain all constants that are configurable prior to running.

Deployment

The Gerrit bot is intended to be run as a cron job. Each run of the Gerrit bot will query new changes made to the Gerrit server within a certain period of time, perform actions on each change, and exit.

The following are steps to deploy the Gerrit bot:

  • Create .data folder in the same folder as bot.py,
mkdir .data
  • Follow the steps here to get the Gerrit bot account username and password.

  • To run the Gerrit bot once,

./bot.py
  • To edit the cron table,
crontab -e

To run the Gerrit bot every 30 minutes, add the following line to the crontable,

*/1 * * * * cd /path/to/gerrit/bot/directory && ./bot.py
