This page describes a usage or software configuration that may not be supported by IBM.

Tracked Resource Set (TRS) is a protocol designed for servers to expose a set of resources in a way that allows clients to discover all additions, removals and modifications to the resource. Lifecycle Query Engine (LQE) utilizes this protocol to index lifecycle data and Rational Engineering Lifecycle Manager (RELM) provides the functions to visualize, analyze and organize such resources. Additionally Open Services Lifecycle Collaboration (OSLC) can be used to remotely view the lifecycle resource details and or navigate to them in a consistent regardless of where they are hosted. A TRS resource doesn’t have to be an OSLC provider in order to be indexed and searchable.

Eclipse Lyo provides the TRS Software Development Kit (SDK) which makes it easier to implement TRS provider. The TRS Workshop, which uses this SDK, provides the reference implementation of TRS Provider for Bugzilla. This workshop provides a foundation in the skills required for developing Tracked Resource Set Provider implementations, while this article serves as a supplement to the workshop to help explain:

  • How to configure RELM, LQE and Jazz Team Server to connect to TRS Provider for Bugzilla
  • Sample SPARQL query to search Bugzilla bugs
  • Sample RELM View configuration to visualize Bugzilla bugs

Prerequisites

  • Bugzilla v4.0.10 or later server and its administrator id and the password
  • Completed the TRS Workshop on Eclipse.org
  • TRS Adapter for Bugzilla
  • RELM v1.0.0.1 or v4.0.3 server and its administrator id and the password.

The instruction to setup TRS Workshop is here, which has all necessary instruction to prepare TRS Adapter for Bugzilla. The instructions for installation RELM v 1.0.0.1 is here and for RELM v4.0.3 is here. To learn more about RELM, please read this technical article on Jazz.net. The contents of this articles are :

  1. Create a trusted OSLC consumer key for LQE
  2. Register TRS4JBugzilla adapter to LQE
  3. Register TRS4JBugzilla adapter to RELM for OSLC preview
  4. Create a RELM (v1.0.0.1 or v4.0.3 ) Query for Bugzilla
  5. Create a RELM v1.0.0.1 View for Bugzilla
  6. Create a RELM v4.0.3 View for Bugzilla

How to set up and configure RELM, LQE and Jazz Team Server

Create a trusted OSLC consumer key for LQE

  1. In order to make sura that TRS Adapter for Bugzilla is working, open the root service page ( http://<TRS adapter host name>:8085/OSLC4JBugzilla/rootservices ) by your browser.
  2. Open RELM JTS admin page ( https://<RELM host name>:<port number>/jts/admin )
  3. Click Manage Server in Manage Server pane, and then navigate to Friends (Outbound) in the left pane.
  4. Click Add… link at the right of the Friends List section title
  5. Fill the fields
    1. Name: TRS4JBugzilla
    2. Root Services URI: http://<TRS adapter host name>:8085/OSLC4JBugzilla/rootservices
    3. OAuth Secret: xyz
    4. Trusted: Checked
  6. Click Create Friend button
  7. Click Next
  8. Click Grant access for the provisional key link
  9. Fill the form using [[Bugzilla admin id (default root@localhost.here)]] and [[Bugzilla admin password (passw0rd)]], and then click Continue

    NOTE: You may not see the login message if you have already logged in to the TRS4JBugzilla adapter as the administrator.
  10. Type LQE in Name field, check Trusted checkbox, and then click Allow button
  11. Click Finish
  12. Now you have TRS4JBugzilla friend definition
  13. Copy the OAuth Consumer Key for the next step.

Register TRS4JBugzilla adapter to LQE

  1. Open LQE Data Sources page ( https://<RELM host name>:<port number>/lqe/web/admin/data-sources)
  2. Click Add Data Source button at the right top
  3. Fill the dialog as follow:
    1. Data Source: Check Root Services document URL
    2. Put http://<TRS adapter host name>:8085/OSLC4JBugzilla/rootservices into the edit box
    3. Select http://<TRS adapter host name>:8085/OSLC4JBugzilla/services/trs radio button
    4. Label: TRS4JBugzilla
  4. Click Next, and then fill the form:
    1. OAuth Consumer Key: [one copied in Friends screen]
    2. OAuth Consumer Secret: xyz (in this document)
  5. Click Finish. Now the TRS4JBugzilla TRS is added to LQE

Register TRS4JBugzilla adapter to RELM for OSLC preview

  1. Open RELM admin page ( https://<RELM host name>:<port number>/relm/admin )
  2. Click Friends (Outbound) in the left pane
  3. Click Add… link at the right of the Friends List section title

    3. OAuth Secret: xyz
    4. Trusted: Checked
  5. Click Create Friend, click Next
  6. Click Grant access for the provisional key link
  7. Fill the form using [[Bugzilla admin id (default root@localhost.here)]] and [[Bugzilla admin password (passw0rd)]], and then click Continue. (NOTE: You may not see the login message if you have already logged in to the TRS4JBugzilla adapter as the administrator. )
  8. Type RELM in Name field, check Trusted checkbox, and then click Allow button
  9. Click Finish

Note: If you will change the value of the property, adapter_host, in org.eclipse.lyo.oslc4j.bugzilla.trs/src/main/resources/bugz.properties, you need to remove the consumer keys.

  1. Open RELM JTS admin page ( https://<RELM host name>:<port number>/jts/admin )

  6. Click a red X icon in Actions field for "TRS4JBugzilla" to remove it.
  7. Remove org.eclipse.lyo.docs/org.eclipse.lyo.oslc4j.bugzilla.trs/bugzillaOAuthStore.xml file.

Try RELM Query and View

Before try RELM, please add several Bugzilla bugs. By default, Bugzilla requires Product, Component, Version and Summary fields to be filled in. At this moment, these fields are enough. For example,

After the bug is created, please fill in "See Also" field in Bugzilla bug. For example,

In this field, you need to type "http://<Bugzilla host name>:<port number>/<Bugzilla context root>/show_bug.cgi?id=XXX" where XXX is a Bugzilla Bug ID, and "http://<Bugzilla host name>:<port number>/<Bugzilla context root>" is the value of the property, bugzilla_uri, in org.eclipse.lyo.oslc4j.bugzilla.trs/src/main/resources/bugz.properties. So for example, See Also will look like :

Query
