How could it be otherwise? We are a\nsmall team, with a lot of different projects (only in last month, we had\nmore than **13,000 commits** over **25 different projects**, and we are only\n10 people – with myself working part time). Automating as many development\nsteps as possible (from build to QA to deploy) is helping us a lot, but\nsometimes we write some code and then forget about it. This is a disaster!\nWe have some bug fix or some new feature ready, but it is forgotten in some\nbranch somewhere.\n\n\n\u003C!-- more -->\n\n\nThis is why we have a policy to push as soon as possible to open a new MR,\nmark it as WIP, and assign to ourselves; in this way GitLab will remind us\nwe have an MR.\n\n\nYou need to do three steps to achieve that:\n\n\n* Push the code\n\n* Click on the link that appears on your terminal\n\n* Fill a form\n\n\nBut we are nerds. We are lazy. So one night, after a couple of beers,\n[Alberto Urbano](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alberto-urbano-047a4b19/) and I\nspent some hours to automate a task that requires 10 seconds.\n\n\nActually, the experience was quite fun, it was the first time we used GitLab\nAPIs and we learned things we will apply to others scripts as well.\n\n\n![Image via Riccardo's\nblog](https://about.gitlab.com/images/blogimages/automating-tasks-expectation-versus-reality.png){:\n.shadow}\u003Cbr>\n\n*Image by Randall Munroe,\n[xkcd.com](https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/automation.png)*\n\n\n### The script\n\n\nWith this script, every time we push a commit, GitLab CI checks if the\nbranch that commit belongs to already has an open MR and, if not, it creates\nit. It then assigns the MR to you, and puts **WIP** in the title to mark it\nas a work in progress.\n\n\nIn this way you cannot forget about that branch, and when you’ve finished\nwriting code on it, you just need to remove the WIP from the title and\nassign to the right person to review it.\n\n\nIn the end, this is the script we came out with (when you add to your\nproject, remember to make it executable):\n\n\n```\n\n#!/usr/bin/env bash\n\n# Extract the host where the server is running, and add the URL to the APIs\n\n[[ $HOST =~ ^https?://[^/]+ ]] && HOST=\"${BASH_REMATCH[0]}/api/v4/projects/\"\n\n\n# Look which is the default branch\n\nTARGET_BRANCH=`curl --silent \"${HOST}${CI_PROJECT_ID}\" --header\n\"PRIVATE-TOKEN:${PRIVATE_TOKEN}\" | python3 -c \"import sys, json;\nprint(json.load(sys.stdin)['default_branch'])\"`;\n\n\n# The description of our new MR, we want to remove the branch after the MR\nhas\n\n# been closed\n\nBODY=\"{\n    \\\"id\\\": ${CI_PROJECT_ID},\n    \\\"source_branch\\\": \\\"${CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME}\\\",\n    \\\"target_branch\\\": \\\"${TARGET_BRANCH}\\\",\n    \\\"remove_source_branch\\\": true,\n    \\\"title\\\": \\\"WIP: ${CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME}\\\",\n    \\\"assignee_id\\\":\\\"${GITLAB_USER_ID}\\\"\n}\";\n\n\n# Require a list of all the merge request and take a look if there is\nalready\n\n# one with the same source branch\n\nLISTMR=`curl --silent \"${HOST}${CI_PROJECT_ID}/merge_requests?state=opened\"\n--header \"PRIVATE-TOKEN:${PRIVATE_TOKEN}\"`;\n\nCOUNTBRANCHES=`echo ${LISTMR} | grep -o\n\"\\\"source_branch\\\":\\\"${CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME}\\\"\" | wc -l`;\n\n\n# No MR found, let's create a new one\n\nif [ ${COUNTBRANCHES} -eq \"0\" ]; then\n    curl -X POST \"${HOST}${CI_PROJECT_ID}/merge_requests\" \\\n        --header \"PRIVATE-TOKEN:${PRIVATE_TOKEN}\" \\\n        --header \"Content-Type: application/json\" \\\n        --data \"${BODY}\";\n\n    echo \"Opened a new merge request: WIP: ${CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME} and assigned to you\";\n    exit;\nfi\n\n\necho \"No new merge request opened\";\n\n```\n\n\n### GitLab CI\n\n\nThe variables used in the script are passed to it by our `.gitlab_ci.yml`\nfile:\n\n\n```\n\nstages:\n    - openMr\n    - otherStages\n\nopenMr:\n    before_script: []   # We do not need any setup work, let's remove the global one (if any)\n    stage: openMr\n    only:\n      - /^feature\\/*/   # We have a very strict naming convention\n    script:\n        - HOST=${CI_PROJECT_URL} CI_PROJECT_ID=${CI_PROJECT_ID} CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME=${CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME} GITLAB_USER_ID=${GITLAB_USER_ID} PRIVATE_TOKEN=${PRIVATE_TOKEN} ./utils/autoMergeRequest.sh # The name of the script\n```\n\n\nAll these environment variables are set by GitLab itself, but the\nPRIVATE-TOKEN. A master of the project has to create it in its own profile\nand add to the project settings.\n\n\nTo create the personal token you can go to `/profile/personal_access_tokens`\non your GitLab instance, and then you add to your pipeline following this\nguide.\n\n\n### Ways to improve\n\n\nThe script is far from perfect.\n\n\nFirst of all, it has two API calls, one to take the list of MR and one to\ntake the default branch, to use it as target. Of course you can hardcode the\nvalue (in the end it shouldn’t change often), but hardcoding is always bad.\n\n\nAlso, it uses python3 to extract the name of the target branch – this is\njust one of many possible solutions, just use what is available on your\nsystem. Apart from that, the script doesn’t have any external dependency.\n\n\nThe other thing is how you need to set up the secret token to call the APIs.\nLuckily, GitLab’s developers are working on a [new\nway](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/12729) to manage secret\ntokens.\n\n\n### Conclusion\n\n\nThis was a very small and very simple example about how much powerful\nContinuous Integration can be. It takes some time to set up everything, but\nin the long run it will save your team a lot of headache.\n\n\nIn fleetster we use it not only for running tests, but also for having\nautomatic versioning of the software and automatic deploys to testing\nenvironments. We are working to automate other jobs as well (building apps\nand publish them on the Play Store and so on).\n\n\nSpeaking of which, **do you want to work in a young and dynamic office with\nme and a lot of other amazing people?** Take a look at the [open positions\nat fleetster](https://www.fleetster.net/fleetster-team.html)!\n\n\nKudos to the GitLab team (and other guys who help in their free time) for\ntheir awesome work!\n\n\nIf you have any question or feedback about this blog post, please drop me an\nemail at riccardo@rpadovani.com :-)\n\n\nBye for now,\n\nA. & R.\n\n\nP.S: if you have found this article helpful and you’d like we write others,\ndo you mind to help us reaching the Ballmer’s peak and buy us a\n[beer](https://rpadovani.com/donations)?\n\n\nThis post originally appeared on\n[*rpadovani.com*](https://rpadovani.com/open-mr-gitlab-ci).\n\n\n## About the Guest Author\n\n\nRiccardo is a university student and a part-time developer at\n[fleetster](http://www.fleetster.net/).
