Code Review Dashboard (nearly-complete)

Code Review Dashboard (nearly-complete)

[Lars Kurth]

Hi folks,

the code review dashboard is nearly complete. The read-only version is accessible via https://kibana.bitergia.com/xen

We added plenty of documentation in the Documentation menu at the top, which explains how the panels and various use-cases work.

Items still to do:
* We have not been able to match code reviews that relate to Linux, QEMU, FreeBSD, NetBSD, etc. which are cross-posted on xen-devel@ ... These will currently show up as un-merged and skew the backlog (aka make it bigger than it is). We will look at these at some later point.
* The data is nearly up-to-date as per 2 days ago, but we have not yet set up the cron-job to update the underlying data set
* We have not added time filters for release cycles (Xen 4.2, Xen 4.3, ...) : I just have not had the time to map the labels to 

But generally it is very good and I believe it should help all members within the Xen community to track their own patches, as well as help reviewers, maintainers and committers.

Feedback is welcome: I can also easily create new views and dashboards, if needed. I will give a demo at the Hackathon, for those who are interested. I believe, the dashboard will really be able to provide some useful insights, as well as help various members in the community.

Please have a look!

Best Regards
Lars

The last point is particularly good idea.

The upside is that the tool looks very powerful, the downside is that it
is a bit hard to consume information and filter stuff without prior
experience. The way the documentation is arranged is not very
structural and the glossary is missing at the moment. I think that can
be improved.

Good. Will let you know when it is there.

Agreed. There is a lot of stuff, and it will take a while to get used to some of it.

I think I will move the docs to the wiki and then just have a single document widget that links to it. The markdown and layout of the docs is just not really suitable to use the built-in documentation. Also there is no TOC, etc.

But before I do this, I will give a couple of demos at the Hackathon and see which areas of the UI and tool need more descriptions than others.
