deploy-complexity

Analyze the history and complexity of upcoming and past deploys.

Summarize deploys with statistics like number of PR's, commits, and line changes as well direct links to the github diff for the deploy, links to migrations, and individual PRs.

Examples

$ deploy-complexity.rb
Displays code that would be promoted if staging deployed to production, or master
was promoted to staging.
$ deploy-complexity.rb master
Shows the changes between last production deploy and current master
$ deploy-complexity.rb origin/demo origin/master
Displays the changes that would be deployed to demo
$ deploy-complexity.rb -d 3
Displays the last 3 deploys on production
$ deploy-complexity.rb -b staging -d
Show changes from every single staging deploy
$ deploy-complexity.rb --subdir 'subdir/'
Show only PRs that make modifications to files in the subdir/ directory.

For Testing

Use GIT_DIR to run a local copy of pr-checklist or deploy-complexity against another repo directory. Otherwise git may report an "Invalid Symmetric Difference Error" because it's referencing local sha's in deploy-complexity, not the target repo.

GIT_DIR=../repo bundle exec ./exe/pr-checklist.rb -b branch

Alternatively, pr-checklist accepts a --git-dir flag. If no git directory is specified, it will look for a parent directory containing .git and if not fallback to current directory.

Custom Checklists

If you want to define checklists within your repo, create a ruby file tools/deploy_complexity/checklists.rb:

module Checklists
  # Example checklist item
  class BlarghDetector < Checklist
    def human_name
      "Blarg!"
    end

    def checklist
    '- [ ] Removed extraneous blargh'.strip
    end

    def relevant_for(changes)
      changes.select do |file|
        file.path.ends_with(".rb") && file.patch =~ /blargh/
      end
    end
  end

  module_function

  # List of checklists to run
  def checklists
    [BlarghDetector].freeze
  end
end

And then execute the pr-checklist runner inside of CI using:

bundle exec pr-checklist.rb -b branch -c tools/deploy_complexity/checklists.rb

Github Token

pr-checklist.rb requires a github token with role REPO to edit PR descriptions and comment on a PR. Make sure that GITHUB_TOKEN is set in the environment.
