Monorail Issue Tracker - bugs.avm99963.com

This repo is a fork of the open-source Monorail issue tracker designed to run at bugs.avm99963.com. I've made the code public so it can inspire other developers to host relatively cheap Monorail instances.

Monorail development should generally be contributed upstream, this repo will only accept changes specific to small and relatively cheap instances.

The original README.md file is here below (slightly modified where applicable):

Monorail Issue Tracker

Monorail is the Issue Tracker used by the Chromium project and other related projects. It is hosted at bugs.chromium.org.

If you wish to file a bug against Monorail itself, please do so in our self-hosting tracker. We also discuss development of Monorail at infra-dev@chromium.org.

Getting started with Monorail development

For Googlers: Monorail's codebase is open source and can be installed locally on your workstation of choice.

For local development on Linux, see Linux development instructions

Instructions for deploying Monorail to an existing instance or setting up a new instance are here.

Feature Launch Tracking

To set up FLT/Approvals in Monorail:

1. Visit the gear > Development Process > Labels and fields
2. Add at least one custom field with type "Approval" (this will be your approval
3. Visit gear > Development Process > Templates
4. Check "Include Gates and Approval Tasks in issue"
5. Fill out the chart - The top row is the gates/phases on your FLT issue and you can select radio buttons for which gate each approval goes

Testing

To run all Python unit tests, in the appengine/monorail directory run:

make test

For quick debugging, if you need to run just one test you can do the following. For instance for the test IssueServiceTest.testUpdateIssues_Normal in services/test/issue_svc_test.py:

../../test.py test appengine/monorail:services.test.issue_svc_test.IssueServiceTest.testUpdateIssues_Normal --no-coverage

Frontend testing

To run the frontend tests for Monorail, you first need to set up your Go environment. From the Monorail directory, run:

eval `../../go/env.py`

Then, to run the frontend tests, run:

make karma

If you want to skip the coverage for karma, run:

make karma_debug

To run only one test or a subset of tests, you can add .only to the test function you want to isolate:

// Run one test.
it.only(() => {
  ...
});

// Run a subset of tests.
describe.only(() => {
  ...
});

Just remember to remove them before you upload your CL.
