Installation
Host Installation
Prepare Host
This sets the host up with the standard OpenStack system administration configuration. Skip this if you're not setting up a host for use by the OpenStack project.
sudo apt-get install puppet git openjdk-6-jre-headless mysql-server
git clone git://github.com/openstack/openstack-ci-puppet.git
cd openstack-ci-puppet/
sudo bash run_puppet.sh
Install MySQL
You should setup MySQL as follows, changing 'secret' to a suitable password:
mysql -u root -p
CREATE USER 'gerrit2'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'secret';
CREATE DATABASE reviewdb;
ALTER DATABASE reviewdb charset=latin1;
GRANT ALL ON reviewdb.* TO 'gerrit2'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Then create the gerrit2 system user as follows:
sudo useradd -mr gerrit2
sudo chsh gerrit2 -s /bin/bash
sudo su - gerrit2
With Gerrit 2.2.2 onwards edit /etc/mysql/my.cnf with the following:
[mysqld]
default-storage-engine=INNODB
Install Gerrit
Note that Openstack's gerrit installation currently uses a custom .war of gerrit 2.2.2. The following instruction is for the generic gerrit binaries:
wget http://gerrit.googlecode.com/files/gerrit-2.2.1.war
mv gerrit-2.2.1.war gerrit.war
java -jar gerrit.war init -d review_site
The .war file will bring up an interactive tool to change the settings, these should be set as follows. Note that the password configured earlier for MySQL should be provided when prompted:

Configure Gerrit
The file /home/gerrit2/review_site/etc/gerrit.config will be setup automatically by puppet.
Set Gerrit to start on boot:
ln -snf /home/gerrit2/review_site/bin/gerrit.sh /etc/init.d/gerrit
update-rc.d gerrit defaults 90 10
Then create the file /etc/default/gerritcodereview
with
the following contents:
GERRIT_SITE=/home/gerrit2/review_site
Add "Approved" review type to gerrit:
mysql -u root -p
use reviewdb;
insert into approval_categories values ('Approved', 'A', 2, 'MaxNoBlock', 'N', 'APRV');
insert into approval_category_values values ('No score', 'APRV', 0);
insert into approval_category_values values ('Approved', 'APRV', 1);
update approval_category_values set name = "Looks good to me (core reviewer)" where name="Looks good to me, approved";
Expand "Verified" review type to -2/+2:
mysql -u root -p
use reviewdb;
update approval_category_values set value=2
where value=1 and category_id='VRIF';
update approval_category_values set value=-2
where value=-1 and category_id='VRIF';
insert into approval_category_values values
("Doesn't seem to work","VRIF",-1),
("Works for me","VRIF","1");
Reword the default messages that use the word Submit, as they imply that we're not happy with people for submitting the patch in the first place:
mysql -u root -p
use reviewdb;
update approval_category_values set name="Do not merge"
where category_id='CRVW' and value=-2;
update approval_category_values
set name="I would prefer that you didn't merge this"
where category_id='CRVW' and value=-1;
OpenStack currently uses a hybrid approach for CLA enforcement. We use Gerrit's built in CLA system to ensure that contributors have signed the CLA, but contributors don't actually use Gerrit to sign it. Instead, developers use an external service (Echosign) to agree to the CLA, and then request membership in a Launchpad group called "openstack-cla". The moderators of that group (core members of any OpenStack project) approve membership requests after verifying that new contributors have signed the CLA at Echosign. The openstack-cla group is kept synchronized with Gerrit. Gerrit is then configured with a "dummy" CLA (which users are not expected to see), and the administrator indicates to Gerrit that the entire openstack-cla group has agreed to the CLA. This lets Gerrit enforce that the CLA has been signed while the actual facility to sign it in Gerrit is disabled via a source patch.
This configuration is not recommended for new projects and is merely an artifact of legal requirements placed on the OpenStack project. Here are the SQL commands to set it up:
insert into contributor_agreement_id values (NULL);
insert into contributor_agreements values ('Y', 'N', 'N', 'CLA (Echosign)',
'OpenStack CLA via Echosign', 'static/echosign-cla.html', 1);
insert into account_group_agreements values (
now(), 'V', 1, now(), NULL,
(select group_id from account_group_names where name='openstack-cla'),
1);

GitHub Setup
Generate an SSH key for Gerrit for use on GitHub
sudo su - gerrit2
gerrit2@gerrit:~$ ssh-keygen
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/home/gerrit2/.ssh/id_rsa):
Created directory '/home/gerrit2/.ssh'.
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
GitHub Configuration
- create openstack-gerrit user on github
- add gerrit2 ssh public key to openstack-gerrit user
- create gerrit team in openstack org on github with push/pull access
- add openstack-gerrit to gerrit team in openstack org
- add public master repo to gerrit team in openstack org
- save github host key in known_hosts
gerrit2@gerrit:~$ ssh git@github.com
The authenticity of host 'github.com (207.97.227.239)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 16:27:ac:a5:76:28:2d:36:63:1b:56:4d:eb:df:a6:48.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added 'github.com,207.97.227.239' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
PTY allocation request failed on channel 0
You will also need to create the file
github.secure.config
in the gerrit2 user's home directory.
The contents of this are as follows:
[github]
username = guthub-user
api_token = hexstring
The username should be the github username for gerrit to use when communicating with github. The api_token can be found in github's account setting for the account.
Gerrit Replication to GitHub
The file review_site/etc/replication.config
is needed
with the following contents:
[remote "github"]
url = git@github.com:${name}.git
Jenkins / Gerrit Integration
Create a Jenkins User in Gerrit
With the jenkins public key, as a gerrit admin user:
cat jenkins.pub | ssh -p29418 review.openstack.org gerrit create-account --ssh-key - --full-name Jenkins jenkins
Create "CI Systems" group in gerrit, make jenkins a member
Create a Gerrit Git Prep Job in Jenkins
When gating trunk with Jenkins, we want to test changes as they will appear once merged by Gerrit, but the gerrit trigger plugin will, by default, test them as submitted. If HEAD moves on while the change is under review, it may end up getting merged with HEAD, and we want to test the result.
To do that, make sure the "Hudson Template Project plugin" is installed, then set up a new job called "Gerrit Git Prep", and add a shell command build step (no other configuration):
#!/bin/sh -x
git checkout $GERRIT_BRANCH
git reset --hard remotes/origin/$GERRIT_BRANCH
git merge FETCH_HEAD
CODE=$?
if [ ${CODE} -ne 0 ]; then
git reset --hard remotes/origin/$GERRIT_BRANCH
exit ${CODE}
fi
Later, we will configure Jenkins jobs that we want to behave this way to use this build step.
Auto Review Expiry
Puppet automatically installs a daily cron job called
expire_old_reviews.py
onto the gerrit servers. This script
follows two rules:
- If the review hasn't been touched in 2 weeks, mark as abandoned.
- If there is a negative review and it hasn't been touched in 1 week, mark as abandoned.
If your review gets touched by either of these rules it is possible to unabandon a review on the gerrit web interface.
Launchpad Sync
The launchpad user sync process consists of two scripts which are in openstack/openstack-ci on github: sync_launchpad_gerrit.py and insert_gerrit.py.
Both scripts should be run as gerrit2 on review.openstack.org
sync_launchpad_users.py runs and creates a python pickle file, users.pickle, with all of the user and group information. This is a long process. (12 minutes)
insert_gerrit.py reads the pickle file and applies it to the MySQL database. The gerrit caches must then be flushed.
Depends
apt-get install python-mysqldb python-openid python-launchpadlib
Keys
The key for the launchpad sync user is in ~/.ssh/launchpad_rsa. Connecting to Launchpad requires oauth authentication - so the first time sync_launchpad_gerrit.py is run, it will display a URL. Open this URL in a browser and log in to launchpad as the hudson-openstack user. Subsequent runs will run with cached credentials.
Running
cd openstack-ci
git pull
python sync_launchpad_gerrit.py
python insert_gerrit.py
ssh -i /home/gerrit2/.ssh/launchpadsync_rsa -p29418 review.openstack.org gerrit flush-caches
Gerrit IRC Bot
Installation
Ensure there is an up-to-date checkout of openstack-ci in ~gerrit2.
apt-get install python-irclib python-daemon python-yaml
cp ~gerrit2/openstack-ci/gerritbot.init /etc/init.d
chmod a+x /etc/init.d/gerritbot
update-rc.d gerritbot defaults
su - gerrit2
ssh-keygen -f /home/gerrit2/.ssh/gerritbot_rsa
As a Gerrit admin, create a user for gerritbot:
cat ~gerrit2/.ssh/gerritbot_rsa | ssh -p29418 review.openstack.org gerrit create-account --ssh-key - --full-name GerritBot gerritbot
Configure gerritbot, including which events should be announced in the gerritbot.config file:
[ircbot]
nick=NICNAME
pass=PASSWORD
server=irc.freenode.net
channel=openstack-dev
port=6667
[gerrit]
user=gerritbot
key=/home/gerrit2/.ssh/gerritbot_rsa
host=review.openstack.org
port=29418
events=patchset-created, change-merged, x-vrif-minus-1, x-crvw-minus-2
Register an account with NickServ on FreeNode, and put the account and password in the config file.
sudo /etc/init.d/gerritbot start
Launchpad Bug Integration
In addition to the hyperlinks provided by the regex in gerrit.config, we use a Gerrit hook to update Launchpad bugs when changes referencing them are applied.
Installation
Ensure an up-to-date checkout of openstack-ci is in ~gerrit2.
apt-get install python-pyme
cp ~gerrit2/gerrit-hooks/change-merged ~gerrit2/review_site/hooks/
Create a GPG and register it with Launchpad:
gerrit2@gerrit:~$ gpg --gen-key

Adding New Projects
Creating a Project in Gerrit
Using ssh key of a gerrit admin (you):
ssh -p 29418 review.openstack.org gerrit create-project --name openstack/PROJECT
If the project is an API project (eg, image-api), we want it to share
some extra permissions that are common to all API projects (eg, the
OpenStack documentation coordinators can approve changes, see acl
). Run the following
command to reparent the project if it is an API project:
ssh -p 29418 review.openstack.org gerrit set-project-parent --parent API-Projects openstack/PROJECT
Add yourself to the "Project Bootstrappers" group in Gerrit which will give you permissions to push to the repo bypassing code review.
Do the initial push of the project with:
git push ssh://USERNAME@review.openstack.org:29418/openstack/PROJECT.git HEAD:refs/heads/master
git push --tags ssh://USERNAME@review.openstack.org:29418/openstack/PROJECT.git
Remove yourself from the "Project Bootstrappers" group, and then set
the access controls as specified in acl
.
Have Zuul Monitor a Gerrit Project
Define the required jenkins jobs for this project using the Jenkins Job Builder. Edit openstack/openstack-ci-puppet:modules/openstack_project/files/jenkins_jobs/config/projects.yaml and add the desired jobs. Most projects will use the python jobs template.
- A minimum config::
-
- project:
-
name: PROJECT github-org: openstack node: precise tarball-publisher-site: nova.openstack.org doc-publisher-site: docs.openstack.org
- jobs:
-
- python-jobs
- Full example config for nova::

- python-essex-bitrot-jobs
- openstack-publish-jobs
- gate-{name}-pylint
Edit openstack/openstack-ci-puppet:modules/openstack_project/files/zuul/layout.yaml and add the required jenkins jobs to this project. At a minimum you will probably need the gate-PROJECT-merge test in the check and gate queues.
A minimum config:

Create a Project in GitHub
As a github openstack admin:
- Visit https://github.com/organizations/openstack
- Click New Repository
- Visit the gerrit team admin page
- Add the new repository to the gerrit team
Pull requests can not be disabled for a project in Github, so instead we have a script that runs from cron to close any open pull requests with instructions to use Gerrit.
- Edit openstack/openstack-ci-puppet:modules/openstack_project/files/review.projects.yaml
and add the project to the list of projects in the yaml file with the 'close-pull' option.
For example:
- project: openstack/PROJECT
options:
- close-pull
Adding Local Git Replica
Gerrit replicates all repos to a local directory so that Apache can serve the anonymous http requests out directly.
On the gerrit host:
sudo git --bare init /var/lib/git/openstack/PROJECT.git
sudo chown -R gerrit2:gerrit2 /var/lib/git/openstack/PROJECT.git
Migrating a Project from bzr
Add the bzr PPA and install bzr-fastimport:
add-apt-repository ppa:bzr/ppa apt-get update apt-get install bzr-fastimport
Doing this from the bzr PPA is important to ensure at least version 0.10 of bzr-fastimport.
Clone the git-bzr-ng from termie:
git clone https://github.com/termie/git-bzr-ng.git
In git-bzr-ng, you'll find a script, git-bzr. Put it somewhere in your path. Then, to get a git repo which contains the migrated bzr branch, run:
git bzr clone lp:${BRANCHNAME} ${LOCATION}
So, for instance, to do glance, you would do:
git bzr clone lp:glance glance
And you will then have a git repo of glance in the glance dir. This git repo is now suitable for uploading in to gerrit to become the new master repo.
Project Config
There are a few options which need to be enabled on the project in the Admin interface.
- Merge Strategy should be set to "Merge If Necessary"
- "Automatically resolve conflicts" should be enabled
- "Require Change-Id in commit message" should be enabled
- "Require a valid contributor agreement to upload" should be enabled
Optionally, if the PTL agrees to it:
- "Require the first line of the commit to be 50 characters or less" should be enabled.
Access Controls
High level goals:
- Anonymous users can read all projects.
- All registered users can perform informational code review (+/-1) on any project.
- Jenkins can perform verification (blocking or approving: +/-1).
- All registered users can create changes.
- The OpenStack Release Manager and Jenkins can tag releases (push annotated tags).
- Members of $PROJECT-core group can perform full code review (blocking or approving: +/- 2), and submit changes to be merged.
- Members of openstack-release (Release Manager and PTLs), and $PROJECT-drivers (PTL and release minded people) exclusively can perform full code review (blocking or approving: +/- 2), and submit changes to be merged on milestone-proposed branches.
- Full code review (+/- 2) of API projects should be available to the -core group of the corresponding implementation project as well as to the OpenStack Documentation Coordinators.
- Full code review of stable branches should be available to the -core group of the project as well as the openstack-stable-maint group.
- Drivers (PTL and delegates) of client library projects should be able to add tags (which are automatically used to trigger releases).
To manage API project permissions collectively across projects, API projects are reparented to the "API-Projects" meta-project instead of "All-Projects". This causes them to inherit permissions from the API-Projects project (which, in turn, inherits from All-Projects).
These permissions try to achieve the high level goals:

Renaming a Project
Renaming a project is not automated and is disruptive to developers, so it should be avoided. Allow for an hour of downtime for the project in question, and about 10 minutes of downtime for all of Gerrit. All Gerrit changes, merged and open, will carry over, so in-progress changes do not need to be merged before the move.
To rename a project:
Make it inacessible by editing the Access pane. Add a "read" ACL for "Administrators", and mark it "exclusive". Be sure to save changes.
Update the database:
update account_project_watches set project_name = "openstack/OLD" where project_name = "openstack/NEW"; update changes set dest_project_name = "openstack/OLD" where dest_project_name = "openstack/NEW";
Wait for Jenkins to be idle (or take it offline)
Stop Gerrit and move the Git repository:
/etc/init.d/gerrit stop cd /home/gerrit2/review_site/git/openstack/ mv OLD.git/ NEW.git /etc/init.d/gerrit start
(Bring Jenkins online if need be)
Rename the project in GitHub
Update Jenkins jobs te reference the new name. Rename the jobs themselves as appropriate
Remove the read access ACL you set in the first step from project
Submit a change that updates .gitreview with the new location of the project
Developers will either need to re-clone a new copy of the repository, or manually update their remotes.
Deleting a User from Gerrit
This isn't normally necessary, but if you find that you need to completely delete an account from Gerrit, here's how:
delete from account_agreements where account_id=NNNN;
delete from account_diff_preferences where id=NNNN;
delete from account_external_ids where account_id=NNNN;
delete from account_group_members where account_id=NNNN;
delete from account_group_members_audit where account_id=NNNN;
delete from account_patch_reviews where account_id=NNNN;
delete from account_project_watches where account_id=NNNN;
delete from account_ssh_keys where account_id=NNNN;
delete from accounts where account_id=NNNN;
ssh review.openstack.org -p29418 gerrit flush-caches --all
Adding A New Project On The Command Line
All of the steps involved in adding a new project to Gerrit can be accomplished via the commandline, with the exception of creating a new repo on github.
First of all, add the .gitreview file to the repo that will be added. Then, assuming an ssh config alias of review for the gerrit instance, as a person in the Project Bootstrappers group:
ssh review gerrit create-project --name openstack/$PROJECT
git review -s
git push gerrit HEAD:refs/heads/master
git push --tags gerrit
At this point, the branch contents will be in gerrit, and the project config settings and ACLs need to be set. These are maintained in a special branch inside of git in gerrit. Check out the branch from git:
git fetch gerrit +refs/meta/*:refs/remotes/gerrit-meta/*
git checkout -b config remotes/gerrit-meta/config
There will be two interesting files, groups and project.config. groups contains UUIDs and names of groups that will be referenced in project.config. There is a helper script in the openstack-ci repo called get_group_uuid.py which will fetch the UUID for a given group. For $PROJECT-core and $PROJECT-drivers:
openstack-ci/gerrit/get_group_uuid.py $GROUP_NAME
And make entries in groups for each one of them. Next, edit project.config to look like:
[access "refs/*"]
owner = group Administrators
[receive]
requireChangeId = true
requireContributorAgreement = true
[submit]
mergeContent = true
[access "refs/heads/*"]
label-Code-Review = -2..+2 group $PROJECT-core
label-Approved = +0..+1 group $PROJECT-core
[access "refs/heads/milestone-proposed"]
label-Code-Review = -2..+2 group $PROJECT-drivers
label-Approved = +0..+1 group $PROJECT-drivers
If the project is for a client library, the refs/* section of project.config should look like:
[access "refs/*"]
owner = group Administrators
create = group $PROJECT-drivers
pushTag = group $PROJECT-drivers
Replace $PROJECT with the name of the project.
Finally, commit the changes and push the config back up to Gerrit:
git commit -m "Initial project config"
git push gerrit HEAD:refs/meta/config
At this point you can follow the steps above for creating the project's github replica, the local git replica, and zuul monitoring/jenkins jobs.
