feat(host-service): link, create and merge GitLab merge requests through glab - #8719
geraudloup wants to merge 13 commits into
Conversation
A workspace whose remote is on a GitLab host now shows its merge request the way a GitHub workspace shows its pull request: state, draft, merged, the head pipeline as its check, and "review required" when approval is missing. Create PR opens a merge request with `glab mr create`. Every GitLab call is a `glab` subprocess, like the `gh` path, so it uses the user's own `glab auth login`. Superset passes `-R https://<host>/<path>` built from the remote, and glab maps that host to its API host itself, so self-managed instances and SSH host aliases work without any host settings in Superset. - A host is GitLab when its name contains "gitlab"; other hosts never spawn glab. - The GitLab identity is not written to the project row: avatars, clone matching and the Octokit procedures read projects.repo* as GitHub. - Merge and Ready for review stay hidden for non-GitHub PRs. They call GitHub by owner/repo/number, which a GitLab MR can share with a GitHub mirror of the same project.

Merge and Ready for review now work for a linked GitLab MR: the github router runs `glab mr merge` (squash and rebase map to their flags, auto-merge off so the result matches GitHub's immediate merge) and `glab mr update --ready`. The callers send owner/repo/number only, so the host picks GitLab when a linked GitLab MR has that identity, and refuses when a linked GitHub PR has it too: a GitLab project and its GitHub mirror share owner/repo, and a guess could merge the wrong one. The lookup reads the runtime's own pull_requests rows (the rows the PR chip shows), next to findPullRequestRow, so github.ts reads no snapshot fields. This replaces the renderer guard that hid both actions for GitLab MRs, and also covers mobile.

A GitLab owner now carries its host (`gitlab.example.com/group`, with the HTTPS port when the remote names one; an SSH port is not the web port): - MRs of two GitLab instances with the same path and number no longer share a cache entry or a pull_requests row. - An HTTPS remote on a non-default port keeps its port in the glab URL. - Merge and Ready for review pick GitLab when the owner has a slash, which a GitHub owner never has. No stored row is consulted, so a GitHub PR can never be routed to glab, and the runtime lookup is gone. Also from review: - A merge request without a string sha is skipped instead of being stored with headSha "undefined"; a pipeline without a URL has none. - A failed refresh after creating an MR is logged, as on the GitHub path. - The PR menu and card say "Open in browser" (an existing catalog string) instead of "View on GitHub". Files that now hold GitLab code are renamed to github-gitlab-*. The `@superset/shared/github-remote` export keeps its name so its importers do not change.
Renaming github-remote.ts to github-gitlab-remote.ts showed as a full delete and re-add, since the GitLab part nearly doubles that small file. The GitLab parser now lives in its own gitlab-remote.ts (exported as `@superset/shared/gitlab-remote`), so github-remote.ts and its importers stay untouched and the change is a plain addition.

…ab errors - Each job of the MR's head pipeline is a check (`glab ci get`), as each GitHub check run is. An allowed-to-fail job counts as neutral, and a manual job as skipped, so neither keeps the MR red or pending. - An MR with at least one approval shows as approved (approvals API, reached through the MR's own web host and project id). "Review required" still comes from detailed_merge_status. - execGlab rejects with glab's own reason (its stderr) instead of execFile's "Command failed: glab ..." line, which repeated the whole command, MR description included. Create, merge and ready failures now read like the GitHub path's.

A remote is GitLab when glab has a config entry for its host, not when the host name contains "gitlab": self-managed instances on any host name (git.company.com) now link their merge requests. The check is `glab config get api_host --host <host>`: a local config read, no network. Each answer is cached per host for five minutes, so a refresh spawns nothing for a host seen recently, and a later `glab auth login` is picked up. Only remotes that are not GitHub are checked.
…en GitLab does - A manual job that may not fail blocks its pipeline, so it stays a pending check; only an optional manual job counts as skipped. - "Approved" needs GitLab's own `approved: true` as well as an approver: an approval can exist while required rules are still unmet.
…and workspace from MR Builds on the GitLab support in ParadevAI#8719, through the same glab calls: - Discussions: the Review tab and the PR pane read an MR's discussions (diff notes as review threads, other notes as conversation), reply to a thread and resolve or reopen it. - Job logs: "Copy job logs" works for a failed GitLab CI job (`glab ci trace`), for jobs of the MR's own project only. - PR pane: a GitLab MR link opens in Superset's PR pane. Its ref keeps the host in the repo name, so the GitHub fallbacks never read it as a GitHub repo.

MRs from forks are refused for now.
…ts gaps - The PR head and details lookups pick glab or GitHub inside one cachedGitHubFetch call instead of repeating it per provider. - Comments say why a fork MR is never linked (GitLab names the source project by id only), why "approved" also needs an approver (GitLab reports `approved` when no approval rule applies), and that GitLab has no case-drift sweep yet (its source-branch filter is case-sensitive).

The runtime keeps a set of hosts glab has confirmed instead of re-checking every host every 5 minutes. An unknown host is asked again at each refresh, one local `glab config get`, so a host added with `glab auth login` shows at the next refresh without a restart.

Routers now ask the runtime only for a GitLab identity, through getGitLabRepository. getProjectRepository returns the GitHub identity saved on the project row, which routers must not use: resolveGithubRepo reads the remote as it is now. A GitLab identity is never saved, so it is always read fresh.

This case-drift sweep did not feel useful to add...
I should note that when a workspace has no MR, it costs one more glab mr list of up to 100 open MRs per project refresh, and glab has nothing like gh's free 304 revalidation. If you want it, here it is:

I decided to keep getProjectRepository private to avoid future devs randomly using this instead of the resolveGithubRepo which avoids misuse (stale copy):
For a GitHub remote it saves owner, name and URL on the project row, and from then on it returns that saved copy without reading the remote again.
It felt worth the ... 7 more lines, super easy to read anyway ^^
normalizePullRequest, toCheckRunNode and mapReviewDecision and their GitLab counterparts build the same shapes, so a change to one usually needs the other. Each now names its twin.

Adding GitLab support
What and why
I have noted that I am not alone wanting to do such thing (several issues and opened PRs, I think I have seen some more than 6 months old), and I guess it is not a high priority for the team, so I decided to make a small PR that does it, easy to review, basically maximally piggy-backing on gh code. It should thus be easy to maintain and review, since it is quite minimal.
An example of an issue: #6445.
The PR changes +345/−31 source lines (+330/−16 ignoring whitespace) and adds 112 test lines. An example of some open PRs, much harder to review: #7018 (actually currently broken from when I tested it) and the huge #8241 (an issue with several sub PRs ^^'), if you prefer it, obviously go for it :)
Done
For a workspace on a GitLab remote:
glab mr create|merge|update.Design (optimizing for ease of coding and reviewing, lazy but not dirty)
glab config get api_host --host <host>). That's a local read. A known host is remembered, so a refresh spawns nothing for it, and a host added later shows at the next refresh.glab … -R https://<host>/<path>, and glab maps SSH-alias and self-managed hosts itself. (Easy to do for edge case setups and the like, glab config only, any llm would do it in a giffy if someone has any issue...) => this makes the code much simpler obviouslyhost/group(an HTTPS port is kept). MRs of two instances never collide, and Merge/Ready choose GitLab when the owner has a slash, which a GitHub login can't. => this makes the code much simpler obviously and is easy to understand for future coders :) it avoids quite a lot of useless complexity to handleFollow-up: #8724 adds MR discussions, CI job logs, the PR pane (content, diff, close/reopen) and creating a workspace from an MR. (again same mindset... easy to review, feel free to do it after this one... It looks bigger because it is on top of main obviously, if you merge this one it will be much smaller obviously)
How I tested it
I had a llm do lots of scenarios in a desktop dev build on a self-managed GitLab. Unit tests cover the linking, the remote parsing and the host detection;
