Hi All,
Hi Ranjitha,
I came across the project "Build a fedmsg plugin for perceval - a data
gathering metrics tool" in outreachy program, I would like to apply for
this project under your guidance. I did some read up on fedmsg, perceval
and about the project. I shall work on the tasks specified in the outreachy
project website. Meanwhile, i wanted to understand about the project. We
need to write a plugin in perceval (like the ones present for bugzilla,
askbot etc.) to retrieve the messages generated by fedmsg(on fedora infra)
and apply the specified filters. My understanding is that, the plugin
should gather the data from datagrepper (
https://apps.fedoraproject.
org/datagrepper/raw) using the HTTP requests, and apply the filters on
the JSON output got. Please correct me if i am wrong.
Thank you for your interest in the project. Please write to us on
outreachy(a)lists.fedoraproject.org so that we can discuss the technical
aspects of the project without generating noise here.
Assuming this is what needs to be done, the plugin requires 3
things:
- Code to get the fedmsg in JSON format
- Code to Parse the fedmsg
- Filters to apply on the fedmsg
That's correct. Datagrepper also has inbuilt filters which can do it more
:)
Please help me out with getting started and contributing to this project.
Thanks,
Ranjitha
