Hi Ovanes,
answering inline below:
project = Project.find_by_slug "gitorious"
repository = project.repositories.find_by_name "mainline"
These two lines find a specific repository withing a project. What if
I want to install hook for all repositories, because I run a private
gitorious and would like the bug tracker to be notified if any of the
repositories changes???
If you want to install a hook for *all* repositories, you could do
something like this:
Repository.all.each do |repository|
hook = repository.hooks.build
hook.user = repository.user
hook.url = "http://www.postbin.org/wqpx3l";
hook.save
end
hook = repository.hooks.build
Creates a hook object for some repository.
Yep.
hook.user = repository.user
Do I just assign to the hook object a repository user? Or should I
state here which user is going to be assigned. In other words is
repository.user a property access, or a placeholder?
Repository.user is a property access to the User who originally created
the repo (the underlying ORM in rails maps repository.user to a row in
the User table). Assigning the same user to the hook creates a new
relation from the hook to that user.
hook.save
This persists the hook in the DB?
Exactly.
I think the most interesting approach is to install hooks for
particular repository pattern within a project, like:
project = Project.find_by_slug "gitorious"
repository = project.repositories.find_by_name "main*"
...
What you could do here is to first find all repositories with a certain
pattern (see
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/251345/activerecord-find-starts-with)
for a discussion of ways to use partial/"LIKE" queries. Once you have
the result e.g array of repositories, simple loop over, and update them
all, like in the example I gave above.
