<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This document describes various workflows that can be enforced by the use of Helix Triggers and other related scripts in a configurable manner.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Examples include:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>Creating default Swarm review descriptions according to a template</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Requiring a job to be associated with a changelist either when shelving (for review) or when attempting to submit</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Making most job fields read-only – to enforce good practice when linking with external defect trackers, such as JIRA</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Automatically submitting reviewed changelists if a Jenkins job succeeds</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Such triggers enhance traceability, ensuring the users associate every changelist in defined projects with a JIRA issue.</p>

<p>The triggers run with a common configuration file (YAML format), which includes things such as messages to be displayed, fields which can be modified in jobs, and the definition of particular projects to which workflow values apply.</p>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_workflow_yaml">1.1. Workflow.yaml</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This is a well-commented configuration file that is read by all the workflow triggers to control their actions.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>For SDP installs, it should be located in <code>/p4/common/config/Workflow.yaml</code></p>
</div>
<div class="sect3">
<h4 id="_defining_projects_and_project_specific_configurables">1.1.1. Defining Projects and Project Specific Configurables</h4>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The file contains an array of project entries, and standard flag entries for those projects.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Projects are read from top to bottom, and the first project that matches a changelist file is the one which is used.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Projects - an array of project entries</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Each project expected to have entries for specific fields.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>depot_paths: an array of values for which to process other fields</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Controlling here allows you to not have to update the trigger table entry every time you wish to adjust. Also, it is possible to have this file be updated by ordinary users and not just superusers. You can even auto-sync this file if required via trigger.</p>

<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>It is important that all triggers have a comprehensive test framework so that changes and enhancements can be made with relatively little risk.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>All test harnesses are in the tests sub-directory.</p>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_standalone_unit_tests">3.1. Standalone Unit tests</h3>

<p>Some tests can directly import the triggers modules and exercise individual classes.</p>

</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_testing_via_p4d_triggers_table">3.2. Testing via P4D Triggers table</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Some tests are installed in test environment where p4d is run using the rsh hack (also known as inetd mode) – this is similar to how P4DVCS works because the server process has no requirement to be run with a port (can be dangerous on machines with live or important Perforce servers).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The test harness directly creates trigger table entries so that the p4d server will execute the trigger as required.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The disadvantage of this test method is that you can’t debug easily across the process boundary, because it is p4d which is directly executing the trigger script, and not the test harness.</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_mocking_the_swarm_api_interface">3.3. Mocking the Swarm API Interface</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This is done using the Mock framework (installed standalone for Python 2.x, standard with 3.x)</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>It ensures that the expected Swarm API calls are made, and is used to direct test code paths.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Without this, it would be necessary to have an installation of Swarm.</p>

Removing Deprecated folder - if people want it they can look at past history! All functions have been replaced with standard functionality such as built in LDAP, or default change type. Documentation added for the contents of Unsupported folder. Changes to scripts/triggers are usually to insert tags for inclusion in ASCII Doctor docs. |
