Git-Appraise Web UI

This repository contains a read-only web UI for git-appraise reviews.

Disclaimer

This is not an official Google product.

Prerequisites

Building requires the Go tools and GNU Make. Running the built binary requires the git command line tool.

Building the source code

Assuming you have the Go tools installed, run the following command:

go get github.com/google/git-appraise-web/git-appraise-web

Manual steps

Assuming you have not run the above command, first checkout the code from the git repo:

mkdir -p ${GOPATH}/src/github.com/google
cd ${GOPATH}/src/github.com/google
git clone https://github.com/google/git-appraise-web.git

Build the binary:

cd ${GOPATH}/src/github.com/google/git-appraise-web
make

Running the application

Binary is placed into ${GOPATH}/bin:

${GOPATH}/bin/git-appraise-web

The tool requires that it be started in a directory that contains at least one git repo, and it shows the reviews from every git repo under that directory.

The UI is a webserver which defaults to listening on port 8080. To use a different port, pass it as an argument to the "--port" flag:

${GOPATH}/bin/git-appraise-web --port=12345

Try it in App Engine

The repo includes a demo of the UI that runs in App Engine. You can try it out with your own project by running

gcloud app deploy --project ${PROJECT} demo/

Where ${PROJECT} is set to the ID of a GCP project you own.
