Hi, tl;dr: how to progreed in separating horizon and openstack_dashboard
About a year ago now we agreed, it makes sense to separate horizon and openstack_dashboard. Thanks to Radomirs work in unbundling JavaScript libraries, we're finally there. It was decided to rename horizon to horizon_lib[1], and to rename openstack_dashboard to horizon. Now following[2]: The split: ========== code freeze -- no patches merged, except for the ones mentioned here, - rename "horizon" to "horizon_lib", fix all corresponding imports, - rename "openstack_dashboard" to "horizon", fix all corresponding imports, - clone the "horizon" repository using git-filter to skip the dashboard files, create an external repository on github for that, - add new project to openstack-infra/config called horizon_lib, with the new repo as the upstream, setup CI for the new project, - verify that the new repository works correctly, - remove the horizon_lib files from the old repository in one big commit, end of code freeze I tried that in [3], [4]. I renamed openstack_dashboard to openstack_horizon, rather than horizon to be sure, I really catched all imports etc., and to make sure, it's clear, what component is meant. During this process, the name horizon is a bit ambiguous. It was a somehow larger rework, just search and replace didn't do the job here, and I'm quite confident to have left one or the other thing untouched. There were quite a few additional code changes necessary, mostly due flake8 tests (renamed names are longer, breaking line length, horizon_lib and horizon are now separate, imports must be separated) So, how do we proceed from here? - how do we block the gate - how to create a new repo - how to set up ci for the new project? - how to integrate new horizon_lib and horizon (or openstack-horizon) to devstack Matthias [1] http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2014-June/037996.html [2] https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/horizon-split-plan [3] https://github.com/mrunge/openstack_horizon [4] https://github.com/mrunge/horizon_lib _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
