| # Gerrit Code Review code-owners plugin | |
| This plugin provides support for defining code owners for files in a repository. | |
| If the code-owners plugin is enabled, changes can only be submitted if all | |
| touched files are covered by approvals from code owners. | |
| For a detailed description of the plugin functionality please refer to the | |
| [plugin documentation](https://android-review.googlesource.com/plugins/code-owners/Documentation/index.html). | |
| IMPORTANT: Before installing/enabling the plugin follow the instructions from | |
| the [setup guide](https://android-review.googlesource.com/plugins/code-owners/Documentation/setup-guide.html). | |
| NOTE: The plugin documentation only renders correctly when the plugin is | |
| installed in Gerrit and the documentation is accessed via | |
| https://<gerrit-host>/plugins/code-owners/Documentation/index.html. If you want | |
| to read the documentation before installing the plugin, you can find it properly | |
| rendered | |
| [here](https://android-review.googlesource.com/plugins/code-owners/Documentation/index.html). | |
| ## JavaScript Plugin | |
| From the root of the gerrit repository. | |
| ``` | |
| bazel test //plugins/code-owners/web:karma_test | |
| ``` | |
| For testing the plugin with the | |
| [Gerrit FE Dev Helper](https://gerrit.googlesource.com/gerrit-fe-dev-helper/) | |
| the command below builds | |
| ``` | |
| bazel build //plugins/code-owners/web:code-owners | |
| ln -s bazel-bin/plugins/code-owners/web/code-owners.js polygerrit-ui/app/plugins/ | |
| ``` | |
| and let the Dev Helper redirect from | |
| `.+/plugins/code-owners/static/code-owners.js` to | |
| `http://localhost:8081/plugins/code-owners.js`. |
