        # bugzilla2gitlab
        
        Introduction
        ------------
        
        Are you relying on a decades-old bugzilla installation for issue
        tracking? Do you want to move to a more modern issue tracker, but are
        afraid to lose the bug history? Do you have more important things to
        worry about than a Bugzilla to GitLab issue migration?
        
        If you answered yes to the above 3 questions, then bugzilla2gitlab might
        be for you.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        This library is very much under development. That said, if you like to
        feel the wind in your hair, simply ``pip install bugzilla2gitlab``.
        
        More than likely, you will need to roll up your sleaves and hack on the
        package to achieve a migration that you are happy with. In this case:
        
        ::
        
            git clone git@github.com:xmunoz/bugzilla2gitlab.git
            cd bugzilla2gitlab
            virtualenv venv
            source venv/bin/activate
            pip install -r requirements.txt
        
        Usage
        -----
        
        bugzilla2gitlab synchronously migrates a user-defined list of bugzilla
        bugs to a single GitLab project. There are two interfaces for this
        library. The command line usage:
        
        ::
        
            $  bin/run_migrator.py -h
            usage: run_migrator.py [-h] [FILE] [CONFIG_DIRECTORY]
        
            Migrate bugs from bugzilla to gitlab.
        
            positional arguments:
              [FILE]              A file containing a list of bugzilla bug numbers to
                                  migrate, one per line.
              [CONFIG_DIRECTORY]  The directory containing the required configuration
                                  files.
        
            optional arguments:
              -h, --help          show this help message and exit
        
        This package can also be used as a python module.
        
        ::
        
            from bugzilla2gitlab import Migrator
        
            client = Migrator(config_path="/path/to/config")
            bugs_list = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7]
            client.migrate(bugs_list)
        
        Configuration
        -------------
        
        To begin using bugzilla2gitlab, the following list of configuration
        files is required:
        
        -  ``defaults.yml``: Core default values used throughout the modules.
        -  ``user_mappings.yml``: key, value pairs of Bugzilla usernames to
           GitLab users
        -  ``component_mappings.yml``: key, value pairs of Bugzilla components
           to Gitlab labels
        
        Samples of all of these files can be found in
        ``tests/test_data/config``.
        
        bugzilla2gitlab creates issues and comments in GitLab with the user
        accounts specified in ``user_mappings.yml``, perserving the integrity of
        the original Bugzilla commenter. This, however, may not always be
        possible. In ``example_config/user_mappings.yml``, users with the
        designation "bugzilla" may have left the organization and therefore not
        have current GitLab accounts, or might simply be machine users. Comments
        for such users will be left under a generic "bugzilla" account.
        bugzilla2gitlab doesn't create any new user accounts. All of the
        accounts specified in ``user_mappings.yml`` must already exist in your
        GitLab installation.
        
        How it works
        ------------
        
        GitLab
        ~~~~~~
        
        Gitlab has a comprehensive and extensively documented API. Here are the
        main endpoints that this library makes use of. - `Creating new
        issues <http://doc.gitlab.com/ce/api/issues.html#new-issue>`__ - `Adding
        comments to issues <http://doc.gitlab.com/ce/api/notes.html>`__ -
        `Uploading
        files <http://doc.gitlab.com/ce/api/projects.html#upload-a-file>`__ -
        `Changing an issue
        status <http://doc.gitlab.com/ce/api/issues.html#edit-issue>`__ -
        `Getting user
        ids <http://doc.gitlab.com/ce/api/users.html#for-admins>`__
        
        Calls to the Gitlab API must be made with an administrator private token
        in order to `impersonate other
        users <http://doc.gitlab.com/ce/api/#sudo>`__.\`
        
        Bugzilla
        ~~~~~~~~
        
        This script relies on being able to fetch bug data by simply appending
        ``&ctype=xml`` to the end of the bugzilla bug url, and then parsing the
        resultant xml. If this trick doesn't work on your bugzilla installation,
        then bugzilla2gitlab won't work for you.
        
        Caveats
        -------
        
        Every comment or mention in GitLab typically sends a notification. This
        is true even for comments/issues created programatically. To avoid users
        inboxes being flooded with meaningless email notifications and avoid
        overwhelming your SMTP servers, GitLab users should disable all email
        notifications (global and group-specific) just prior to the running of
        this script. This can be done through the `gitlab
        UI <https://git.zib.de/profile/notifications>`__.
