PRioritizer watcher

A pull request watcher written in Scala.

The watcher listens on a RabbitMQ queue for messages that contain event ids of pull request events. For each event the owner and repository info is fetched from a MongoDB database. If the server contains a local clone of the repository, the pull requests are prioritized using the analyzer.

Please note that the watcher is specifically written for the GHTorrent project.

Prerequisites

• The analyzer
• Scala compiler
• JVM 8

Building

1. Clone the project into ~/watcher
2. Install dependencies and build the project with sbt compile
3. Copy src/main/resources/settings.properties.dist to src/main/resources/settings.properties
4. Configure the application by editing src/main/resources/settings.properties

• e.g. path to output: ~/json/
• e.g. path to repositories: ~/repos/
• e.g. path to analyzer: ~/analyzer/run $owner $repository $dir

5. Package the project into a .jar file with sbt assembly

Running

1. To run in the foreground: ./run
2. To run in the background: ./prioritizer start

• To attach to the background process: ./prioritizer attach
• To stop the background process: ./prioritizer stop
