Release Engineering Automation

This is a working document that aims to identify and breakdown the work needed to automate most of Fedora Release engineering.

Release Engineering Tasks that would benefit from automation

Adopting a package
TBD

Adopting a package

Currently when a packager wants to adopt a package that was previously orphan he needs to file a ticket for releng to process the requests (example : https://pagure.io/releng/issues?status=Closed&search_pattern=orphan)

The following need to be true for a package to be successfully adopted.

the package is not retired
the package is actually orphaned
the package is orphaned for less than 2 weeks
the person adopting the package is in the packager FAS group

When all these conditions are meet the following script can be use to give the package https://pagure.io/releng/blob/master/f/scripts/distgit/give-package.py

Automating checks

As a release engineer I want to automatically check if a package can be unorphaned.
Acceptance Criteria: 1 - A script is provided taking a package name as argument 2 - Verify that the provided package is not a retired package, if retired the script exits with a error message 3 - Verify that the provided package is owned by the orphan user, if not owned by the orphan user the scripts exists with an error message 4 - Verify that the provided package was orphaned less or equal than 2 weeks ago, if not the scripts exists with an error message 5 - When all conditions are met the script prints a success message.

Automating processing

As a release engineer I want new tickets with "Unorphan <package_name>" title to automatically process the request.
Acceptance Criteria: 1 - Creating a new ticket on "https://pagure.io/releng/issues" with the title "Unorphan <package_name>" triggers the script check unorphaned script. 2 - If all conditions are met, the script checks if the requester is member of the packager FAS group. 3 - If the requester of is a packager give him package. 4 - When successful the script updates the original ticket with a comment and close the ticket. 5 - If the conditions are not met or the requester is not a packager the script updates the original ticket with the failure reason in a comment and close the ticket.

 ===== '''Automating processing''' =====
-As a release engineer I want new tickets with "Unorphan <package_name>" as title to trigger the above checks and report results to the tickets because I want to be able to know if I can process the request just by looking at the ticket.
