Revisited: fedora-review
by Alec Leamas
After digesting your remarks I have updated the xml produced by
fedora-review:
- Adding source file info, but without sourceline/function etc. This
should make it possible for a UI to just display the spec file, which is
the proper action here.
- Adding a custom field for type of warning, similar to the
error/warning distinction used by many checkers.
New example: http://ur1.ca/f9dua
Questions:
- Is the general idea here that the if the UI just knows the name of the
source rpm, it knows how to retrieve and unpack it, giving access to
the sources? Or? (BTW, how does this apply to debian?). In other words,
I kind of miss an overall usage scenario description.
- In particular, what's the point of the individual file hash if you
know the state of the source rpm?
- Are there any UI attempts (even just some simple scripts) which is
running in a Fedora context I can test things on?
The debian stuff (firewoes) looks nice... As does the idea of adding a
firehose xml output option to rpmlint.
Cheers!

fedora-review
by Alec Leamas
Dear list,
Greetings!
fedora-review is basically also a static analyze tool, but very
different from source code analyzers.
I have an experimental branch running which I have used to run f-r on
the complete rawhide distribution. One result is about 12000 report.xml
files. These are what's been aggregated to the report in
http://ur1.ca/f5xxw .
These report.xml files are based on the firehose format as I've
understood it. One basic difference is that f-r never have any location,
since the complete package rather than source code is tested.
Besides that, the only thing I see is to add an url to the issue
definition, either just for f-r or in a more general way.
I have no idea where this is going. However,an example from the tests:

by Paul Tagliamonte
It's in NEW now - since we've got a few projects now, I'm officially
going to maintain it in Debian too :)
Great work, team!

Firehose web front-end presentation
by Matthieu Caneill
Hi!
I've been working on a generic implementation of a Firehose front-end;
it's a Flask app designed to publish Firehose results on the web. I'd
also be happy to contribute it to the official Firehose base, if you
find interest in it.
I have several questions/remarks about this, I'll email them separately to
have different threads.
You can see a running instance of 'Firewose', the Firehose front-end
web app, on [1]. This is only a draft yet, but I'd be very happy if
you could give me feedback about this.

Cheers.
