Hi,
I'm looking for a way to look up a reviewboard repository by its name using
the python api. We're currently moving our single CVS repo to a
modularized git one, and so we're expecting the number of repositories that
reviewboard has to manage to grow very quickly. So, what I'm trying to do
is write a git post-commit script that can check to see if a given git repo
already has a reviewboard repository created for it, and create one if it
doesn't exist yet. My current solution is to do this:
def find_repo_by_name(repository_name):
from rbtools.api.client import RBClient
client = RBClient('http://path/to/reviewboard')
root = client.get_root()
repo_count = root.get_repositories(counts_only=True).count
all_repositories = root.get_repositories(max_results=repo_count)
repository_name = 'prod-nuke'
for repository in all_repositories:
if repository.name == repository_name:
return repository
raise IndexError('Repository {name} does not exist on
server'.format(name=repository_name))
This stinks because it has to do the http transmission of all the data for
all the repositories. Obviously I could write it using max_results=25 and
use the get_next() method on the ListResource class, but the worst case
still has O(n) efficiency.
I'd really like to do something like this:
client.get_root().get_repository(repository_name='my-name-here')
Does the reviewboard api provide mechanisms for searching with keys other
than the primary key / resource id? If it does, I can't seem to find it...
Thanks,
-Chris
