runlevelsix / copy-trac-tickets-to-gitlab-issues

Script to copy issues from trac to gitlab.

What

This script migrates trac tickets to gitlab issues.

Features

• Component & Issue-Type are converted to labels
• Milestones are created in Gitlab from fixture data manualy grabbed from trac (copy/paste)
• Comments to issues are copied over
• Wiki Syntax in comments/descriptions is sanitized for my basic usage

How

Usage: configure the following variables in in migrate.py```` and run it (python migrate.py```). Make sure you test it on a test project prior, if you run it twice against the same project you will get duplicated issues.

Source

• trac_url - xmlrpc url to trac, e.g. ``https://user:[e-mail]/projects/thisismyproject/login/xmlrpc```

Target

• gitlab_url - e.g. https://www.exmple.com/gitlab/api/v3
• gitlab_access_token - the access token of the user creating all the issues. Found on the account page, e.g. secretsecretsecret
• dest_project_name - the destination project including the paths to it. Basically the rest of the clone url minus the ".git". E.g. jens.neuhalfen/task-ninja.
• milestone_map - Maps milestones from trac to gitlab. Milestones have to exist in gitlab prior to running the script (CAVE: Assigning milestones does not work.)
• milestone_list - Lists milestones from trac with associated metadata. Manually populated at this point by copy/paste out of trac milestone admin page
