Manual review request for opensearch-dashboards-snap

[juditnovak]

I would like to ask a manual review for opensearch-dashboards-snap.

This package is wrapping the interactive visualization interface of Opensearch, the Opensearch Dashboards application.

Snap base PR: https://github.com/canonical/opensearch-dashboards-snap/pull/1

Ongoing PR with missing feature such as release pipeline: https://github.com/canonical/opensearch-dashboards-snap/pull/4

There is an ongoing track request in parallel. (Sorry for the lack of references, but as a new user I was limited on the number of URLs in the post.)

I can’t see any revisions of this snap published to the store - can you please upload one then we can try and review it?

Hi,

Sry, I’m confused… Feels like a chicken and egg problem perhaps

I thought I needed your review to be able to publish

Track request for `opensearch-dashboards`

Hi, This makes sense to me and I think backward incompatibility is a good use case for creating a new track. Thanks for linking that request too. As both requests are almost identical in nature, I think we can expedite the process and create the track now. I see, however, that the snap is still pending to be reviewed and as such we cannot create a track for it just yet. Please, let me know once the review process is complete and I’ll create the track for you. Thanks, Odysseus

Perhaps I’ve misunderstood something…?

Thanks, Judit

For your snap to be reviewed you have to upload it to the Store first. Currently, your snaps/opensearch-dashboards/ page shows that you haven’t uploaded anything to the Store yet (i.e. there are no revisions for opensearch-dashboards).

[juditnovak]

Huh, sorry, I feel like I may be getting totally lost

Is there perhaps a doc/guideline somewhere explaining these steps in detail…?

So far I only tried to upload the track 2/edge track using the corresponding GH workflow: https://github.com/canonical/opensearch-dashboards-snap/actions/runs/7902760418/job/21722628688

(Publishing is blocked on the missing track, that’s blocked on this thread )

Should I upload a snap package somewhere manually first? Where exactly?

I’m sorry if some of the above may be “stupid” questions…

[juditnovak]

All right, Ipublishing to latest/edge actually works.

Is this the result you Guys were looking for?

@juditnovak So there is no need to request a manual review for a snap - the general process is:

1. publisher uploads snap to the store
2. the snap is checked by review-tools and if this finds any issue (use of a privileged interface / classic confinement or various other issues etc) then the snap is flagged for manual review in the store
3. a member of @reviewers will then review this in the store dashboard and may ask the publisher to create a forum post as per Process for reviewing classic confinement snaps or Process for aliases, auto-connections and tracks etc

In this case, if you wish for a track to be created, you need to create a post requesting that as per the last link I posted above since in general the store has no way of knowing that a track may be needed and so this will not result in the snap being marked for manual review itself.

As mentioned in my earlier message on this thread: the track request has been created already, and was blocked in this thread

Track request for `opensearch-dashboards`

Hi, Please add a track 2 for new Data SNAP opensearch-dashboards. Thank you!

(Or did I misunderstand something…?)

[juditnovak]

Actually, having said that: the request has been answered and track 2 has been created for me

All is well

@juditnovak it seems everything is fine with opensearch-dashboards snap, so I am removing this request from our review queue. If you need any further help, feel free to write here again.

Thanks!
