ragelib

ragelib is a library for RAGE to handle parsing and working with pages it generates.

Prerequisites: Firefox, geckodriver

One of the key features of ragelib is the ability to fetch a rendered graph from RAGE. Graphs are rendered on the client, so this is done using a headless browser using the WebDriver standard. The technology chosen for this is Firefox and geckodriver, communicating with Selenium. Therefore you must have Firefox installed, and a release of geckodriver for your platform downloaded from https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases.

Installation

Recommended use is with pipenv (pip install pipenv):

pipenv install -e git+https://github.com/mcintyre94/ragelib.git#egg=ragelib

brief_parser

This module is for parsing the HTML of a RAGE brief report page. It outputs a dictionary {data_headings, data} where data_headings are the row headings in the input report (ie builds tested), and data is defined as a list of row objects of the shape:

{
    'title',
    'graph_link', # Link to the graph for this row
    'tds' # Raw <td> elements from the row.
}

And where len(data_headings) === len(tds)

Usage

parsed = brief_parser.ReportParser(html, logger).parse_data()

graph_fetcher

This module is for fetching the graphs in a report using headless Firefox. It takes as input a data object as returned by brief_parser, and the path to look for geckodriver. It outputs a new data object of the same length with each row annotated with a new field graph_bytes:

{
    'title', # Unchanged
    'graph_link', # Unchanged
    'tds', # Unchanged
    'graph_bytes' # base64 encoded png screenshot of the rendered graph
}

Usage

data_with_images = graph_fetcher.ImageFetcher(data, geckodriver_path, logger).fetch_images()

brief_rewriter

This module is for writing the data object from graph_fetcher into HTML for display to the user. It takes as input the data headings and the data (with images).

It outputs a HTML document where for each row in the original report we have a table with the data headings and that row's <td> elements, followed by the fetched graph for that row as an HTML base64-encoded image.

Usage

html = brief_rewriter.HTMLBodyWriter(data_headings, data_with_images).get_body()
