What it is and what it does
python-gerrit-api is a Python wrapper around the Gerrit Code Review REST API that lets you automate common Gerrit operations programmatically. It abstracts the HTTP layer behind a client object with methods for managing projects, changes, accounts, groups, branches, and tags—operations that would otherwise require direct REST calls. The library depends only on requests and supports Python 3.6 through 3.12.
You instantiate a GerritClient with your Gerrit server URL and credentials, then call methods like client.projects.get(), client.changes.get(), or client.accounts.get() to retrieve and manipulate Gerrit entities. The library handles the endpoint routing and JSON serialization, making it practical for CI/CD pipelines, automation scripts, and tools that need to integrate with Gerrit without writing raw HTTP code.
Use it for
- Automate project creation, configuration, and branch management in Gerrit from deployment or infrastructure scripts.
- Query and update changes programmatically—mark as reviewed, add hashtags, rebase, or submit—from CI/CD workflows.
- Manage Gerrit accounts and groups in bulk, set SSH keys, or sync user metadata from external systems.
- Build custom dashboards or reporting tools that pull change and project metadata from Gerrit.
- Integrate Gerrit operations into Python-based automation frameworks or bots that need to interact with code review state.
