Description Tom Hughes 2017-08-13 18:47:59 UTC
Description of problem:

Attempting to request a new repository with fedrepo-req errors with an error message that leaves me with no clue what I need to do:

Error: The "pagure_api_token" setting is not set in the "app" section

The "app" section of what exactly? What should I set it to?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

fedrepo-req-1.0.0-1.fc26.noarch

How reproducible:

Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:

fedrepo-req nodejs-chroma-js -t 1480716

Actual results:

Error: The "pagure_api_token" setting is not set in the "app" section

Expected results:

Repository is requested or a meaningful error message is issued.

https://pagure.io/fedrepo_req/blob/master/f/README.md
see Configuration chapter

Comment 2 Matt Prahl 2017-08-13 21:03:34 UTC
I am making a code change so that the user is told to read the README when their configuration isn't properly set:
https://pagure.io/fedrepo_req/pull-request/60

Comment 3 Tom Hughes 2017-08-13 21:45:23 UTC
Thanks. I had already tried "man fedrepo-req" which doesn't exist (a soft review failure) and "fedrepo-req --help" which doesn't mention anything...

Comment 4 Tom Hughes 2017-08-13 21:55:08 UTC
Streamlining the creation of the configuration would be good as well - it's not exactly user friendly at the moment.

At the least I would suggest a mode that can handle creating the ~/.config/fedrepo_req directory and then the config file and filling in a token supplied by the user.

That could then be done automatically if necessary, prompting the user to create a token if there isn't one and then saving it in the configuration.

Comment 5 Raphael Groner 2017-08-14 05:32:33 UTC
Works for me:
[builder@builder26]~% fedrepo-req --help
Usage: fedrepo-req [OPTIONS] REPO [BRANCH]

  Request new repositories on src.fedoraproject.org.

  Examples:

      fedrepo-req nethack -t 12345

      fedrepo-req nethack epel7 -t 12345

      fedrepo-req nethack lts -t 12345 --sl security_fixes:2022-01-01
      --sl bug_fixes:2022-01-01

Options:
  -d, --description TEXT          The package's description.
  -m, --monitor [no-monitoring|monitoring|monitoring-with-scratch]
                                  Monitoring type for the package.
  -n, --namespace [rpms|container|modules|test-modules]
                                  The repo's namespace.
  -s, --summary TEXT              Override the package's summary from the
                                  ticket.
  -t, --ticket TEXT               The package request's ticket number.
  -u, --upstreamurl TEXT          The package's upstream URL.
  --sl TEXT                       The SLs tied to the branch. This must be in
                                  the format of "sl_name:2017-12-25"
  --help                          Show this message and exit.
