Invitation to try out open source code review tool

Some of you may have seen a video recorded in November 2006 where I
showed off Mondrian, a code review tool that I was developing for
Google (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMql3Di4Kgc). I've always hoped
that I could release Mondrian as open source, but it was not to be:
due to its popularity inside Google, it became more and more tied to
proprietary Google infrastructure like Bigtable, and it remained
limited to Perforce, the commercial revision control system most used
at Google.

What I'm announcing now is the next best thing: an code review tool
for use with Subversion, inspired by Mondrian and (soon to be)
released as open source. Some of the code is even directly derived
from Mondrian. Most of the code is new though, written using Django
and running on Google App Engine.

I'm inviting the Python developer community to try out the tool on the
web for code reviews. I've added a few code reviews already, but I'm
hoping that more developers will upload at least one patch for review
and invite a reviewer to try it out.

To try it out, go here:

    http://codereview.appspot.com

Please use the Help link in the top right to read more on how to use
the app. Please sign in using your Google Account (either a Gmail
address or a non-Gmail address registered with Google) to interact
more with the app (you need to be signed in to create new issues and
to add comments to existing issues).

Re: Invitation to try out open source code review tool

As I understood this,one needs a diff to comment on.
I can imagine wanting, or wanting others, to be able to comment on a file 
or lines of files without making a fake diff (of the file versus itself or 
a blank file). Then only one column would be needed.

I presume the current site is for trial purposes.  You obviously don't want 
hundreds of repositories listed.  Are you planning, for instance, to 
suggest that Google project hosting add a Review tab or link to the project 
pages?

And I followed the link to pages about Rietveld ;-)

Yeah, this use case is not well supported. In my experience with the
internal tool at Google, I don't think that anybody has ever requested
that feature, so perhaps in practice it's not so common. I mean, who
wants to review a 5000-line file once it's checked in? :-) The right
point for such a review (certainly this is the case at Google) is when
it goes in.

>  I presume the current site is for trial purposes.

Actually I'm hoping to keep it alive forever, just evolving the
functionality based on feedback.

Repository management is a bit of an open problem. Fortunately, when
you use upload.py, you don't need to have a repository listed --
upload.py will specify the correct base URL, especially for
repositories hosted at Google. (I should probably figure out how to
support SourceForge as well...)

It would be really nice to see support for some other backends, such as Hg

trac supports a pretty wide set of VCSes.

http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/VersioningSystemBackend

Maybe your tools could integrate these backends somehow instead of
re-implementing yet another suite of VCS backend connectors.

That depends. If it requires more than plain HTTP requests it
currently cannot be done on AppEngine.

Anyway, I will continue to say, I'm making it open source Monday and
then you can see for yourself how to add this. I don't want to be
writing all the code for this project; I want it to grow with user
contributions.

I was salivating over that video, so I'm really excited be able to try

I've noticed. Surely there's an interesting story there. :-)

The feature request is on my TODO list. The design is a bit involved,
since I'd have to ask people to register and maintain a userid ->
nickname mapping; the Google Account API we're piggybacking on only
gives you the email address. Once it's open sourced (Monday?) I'd love
to see contributions like this!

It's a debugging counter. It gets reset each time a new service

Depends:

Yes.  You may read anything without an account.

No.  You may not write anything to a Google hosted service without a Google 
account, agreeing to standard Terms of Service, and signing in.  This will 
not change.

Maybe. You might someday be able to write without a Google account IF Guido 
can release as open source and IF someone adapts it to work on a different 
platform (Django with regular DB backend) and then hosts it elsewhere.  Of 
course, any such alternative would probably also require an account and 
Terms of Service agreement.

That's not true for apps hosted under AppEngine. Apps are not required
to request users to log in before they upload things. I chose to do
this for the review app because I don't like the idea of anonymous
comments and uploads (and the spam danger).

Personally, I would consider the following sufficient:

1) people who have authenticated themselves against the underlying VCS (i.e.
project members) may post public comments and comment on other comments

2) anonymous users can post comments that won't become publicly visible until
an authenticated user acknowledges them or comments on them.

That should be enough to keep the system open to everybody and to keep spam away.

Can you work out this design more? I don't understand how an
authenticated user can acknowledge an anonymous comment if it isn't
publicly visible. Also, AFAIK our bug tracker doesn't support
anonymous comments either, so I don't think this is an important use
case.

It's also more work to code. Once I've released the code I'll let
others decide whether they want to contribute such features.

I was suggesting that you'd sign in as a project member and would then see all
comments. They just wouldn't show up on the public web sites without further
action. I think that matches the normal work flow. External users usually do
some kind of upstream talk anyway. It would be rare that no project member is
involved in a patch contribution. And new contributions would go through the
bug tracker first anway, right?

Hm. Since most users of the site are project members this means most
people would see the anonymous comments (= potential spam). However,
the anonymous user couldn't see their *own* comments back later (or be
allowed to edit them). Doesn't sound like a good idea to me.

Rather than svn authentication i suggest just piggybacking on top of the bug trackers authentication.  that is an integration i think we should aim for anyways and it should keep the no-google-account fear mongers happy.  code comments (as bug comments are today) should not require svn commit access.

anyways, i expect someone else may implement that once the code is out there.

The problem with this is that I'd like to have a single codereview
webapp that serves many projects, as long as they use subversion. The
scalability of AppEngine should make this a very attractive solution.
Integrating with each separate bug tracker however would be a pain.

Hmm... Is there a good reason not to just migrate over to OpenID?
For one thing, surely an OpenID provider could exist that just authenticates 
a username against an SVN account. Then many people already have a Yahoo 
account or AOL screenname. On the downside, the OpenID system will likely 
not be terribly effective at avoiding spam in the long run, as spammers 
register accounts at providers (especially those without or with weak 
Captchas). On the otherhand, there are already reports of Spammers mass 
signing-up for Google accounts, so it may not be that different in the long 
run anyway.

Re: Invitation to try out open source code review tool

If you're asking for reasons not to do this:

- AppEngine has a built-in API for dealing with Google Accounts, but
not for OpenID

- Apparently OpenID requires some crypto that would be slow without
additional API support

- I'm not personally familiar with OpenID

None of these seem insurmountable, so now that it's open source, I'm
looking forward to contributions.

Are there any mailing lists associated with this project? I looked at
google code page but couldn't find any.

It solves the opposite problem -- using a Google Account to log in to
an app that requires OpenID. People are clamoring for the opposite
here.

I found that to be of limited use. If I use my proper gmail account
(mvloewis <at> googlemail.com), I managed to log into the OpenID directory,
but not, say, into SourceForge (probably because SF doesn't accept
that specific provider - so it's not truly open, and probably shouldn't
be).

If I used it with the Google account associated with my regular email
address, I couldn't login anywhere at all.

In any case, this provider apparently didn't provide an email address
to the site. That makes it useless for most applications I can think
of, unless it's acceptable to go through a setup procedure again at
the new site that asks for all the user details (real name, email
address) again.

Apparently, this comes from the appengine samples,

http://code.google.com/p/google-app-engine-samples/

which also includes an OpenID consumer.

I'm fairly skeptical about this OpenID thing. I personally couldn't
remember any of my OpenIDs, because they are just too long; plus
I haven't actually seen this really work anywhere yet.

Martin

Re: [Python-3000] Invitation to try out open source code review tool



To try it out, go here:

   http://codereview.appspot.com

Please use the Help link in the top right to read more on how to use
the app. Please sign in using your Google Account (either a Gmail
address or a non-Gmail address registered with Google) to interact
more with the app (you need to be signed in to create new issues and
to add comments to existing issues).

Don't hesitate to drop me a note with feedback -- note though that
there are a few known issues listed at the end of the Help page. The
Help page is really a wiki, so feel free to improve it!

I'd be great to integrate this with the bug tracker so that all submitted patches automagically show up in codereview with links to one another.

Yeah, or a simple button to move it over there.  Either way some
integration would be cool.

Since this is being open-sourced we could probably have a python-dev
instance installed that has all this bonus functionality for us if we
can get an appspot account for the tracker team and there is some API
we can tap into in order to create new issues.

Given the app engine model, I guess any "API" to an app engine-hosted
service would have to be of the RESTful kind, i.e., some URLs to which
client-code can POST appropriately.

Re: Invitation to try out open source code review tool

I forgot -- you need to link or copy the 'django' directory from
Django 0.97.pre into the app directory. Otherwise you'll be using the
Django 0.96.1 that's included with the AppEngine runtime, and the code
is not compatible with that version.

Are you also going to call it Rietveld then? Sounds better

I've been reluctant to use the Rietveld name too much since Americans
can't spell it. :-) But the open source project *is* called Rietveld,
so I suppose I should start using that name...

Which reminds me...  What's it mean?  All I saw was a Dutch city and
(maybe?) a Dutch architect by that name.

BTW, Google code's Python highlighting is broken, look at
http://code.google.com/p/rietveld/source/browse/trunk/views.py line 205ff.

Where can this be reported?

can't spell it. :-)

Well, it follows the i before e rule, so I think I will manage.
And it is a nice name, unlike Unix 'creat'.
In any case, American programmers are not 'average' Americans ;-).
So I say use it!

Plus, think of all the millions of people who will have
their lives enriched by learning to spell 'Rietveld'
properly!

Is it a reference to Gerrit Rietveld (Dutch architect and furniture
designer)? I guess the architect part would make sense for a code review
tool. :)

Yes, as I explain here:

That's purely a coincidence. My dad was an architect and took me on
trips of Rietveld's work. I also own some fairly original Zig Zag
chairs (much to my family's despair, as they aren't too comfortable.

Was it also a coincidence that Mondrian and Rietveld were both members
of the De Stijl movement? If so, a very nice one!

No, that's my naming scheme. :-)

Neat.  I think I see a few echoes of De Stijl esthetic in Python.

"Proponents of De Stijl sought to express a new utopian ideal of spiritual 
harmony and order. They advocated pure abstraction and universality by a 
reduction to the essentials of form and colour" from 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_stijl

The group was one of the best things to come out of the Great Stupid War.

I wonder who is next.  Van Doesburg, the group's BDFL?
(I know... wait ;-)

According to Wikipedia, he was also a friend of Mondrian
and incorporated some of Mondrian's ideas into his
designs.

Re: Invitation to try out open source code review tool

Hi Guido,

I'm afraid I've added a Perl based project (Test::Harness). I then  
went back and read your post and got to the bit where you specifically  
invited *Python* developers. Sorry about that. I'm not trying to  
colonise Pythonspace with Perl, honest :)

No problem! I didn't mean to be exclusive. You're more than welcome to
use Rietveld. We'll be making an announcement later today that opens
it up for everyone anyway, and any experiences you have to share are
welcome on the codereview-discuss Google group.
