Reviewer Roulette

[Wirone]

I've stumbled upon this project today and was wondering: wouldn't it be possible to implement mechanism for drawing reviewers? In larger teams it would be great if every member was involved at similar level, so this should draw reviewers considering review history and current activity. But MVP would be just ability to run command that would draw expected amount of reviewers.

List of users available for review should be configurable per project, as I don't see any reliable way based on available data (Slack channel's participant, Gitlab project's members would most probably be much wider than people interested in the MR), maybe CODEOWNERS would be closest.

What do you think?

Hello and thanks for the idea, loving it ❤️

I could work on the MVP to allow drawing reviewers as an action (once you used the command /homer review <search>) like this

For expected number of reviewers, it can be asked in a following Slack message OR deduced from Gitlab Approval rules.

For users, it seems complex, yes.

• CODEOWNERS seems a good idea, but Gitlab doesn't expose an easy way to match MR changes against CODEOWNERS.
• Users of the Slack Channel could work
• Gitlab Users with a minimum role could work

What do you think ?
