Is there a way to create reviews automatically in crucible?

[Venkatesh Dubakula]

Hi,

We are looking to create automatic reviews by adding reviewer information using crucible when any new check-ins come into repository. If there is a way please give clear details about configurations.

HI Venkatesh,

What Lonnie told you is correct. 

We also have a similar discussion at https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Answers-Developer-Questions/Is-there-a-way-in-crucible-to-create-reviews-automatically/qaq-p/507632 where an alternative is proposed.

You can give a try to the following app: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.atlassian.plugins.reviewcreator

 This app enables creates a review for each changeset. You can even limit the creation to of a review to changeset by a specific author.

Hope this helps.

Hello Team, Yes this is possible. When you check-in or Commit you can use the commit message to create a review and add reviewers to it. 

You want to use Smart Commits. Specifically, you want to look at this section of smart commits Using Smart Commits for Crucible

This provides explanations and examples of how to create reviews and add reviewers

Cheers

Hi Lonnie, 

I understand after go with document( Using Smart Commits for Crucible) it will done with command line option. Default crucible providing command line support with (crucuble.py) script for pre-commit reviews. Is this same python script support to smart commit?.

or Any CLI tool provided by crucuble for smart commit?

Hello Venkatesh, You don't need any special scripts or tools to make smart commits work. All you need to do is follow the format for a smart commit in the commit message. As long as you can leave a commit message as part of the commit it will work.
