Add Reviewer Roulette via CI/CD component danger-review
Why is this change being made?
This MR adds Reviewer Roulette (provided by https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/components/danger-review/-/tree/main?ref_type=heads and https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ruby/gems/gitlab-dangerfiles/) to make available reviewers more visible to MR authors.
Currently, one can use Reviewers
in the sidebar or Approvers
in the MR widget but they are either imprecise or don't have a roulette functionality.
Note In order to make Danger post message to MRs we need to setup a project token (api
scope with Developer
role) and a CI/CD variable called DANGER_GITLAB_API_TOKEN
to contain this project token (Masked
but not Protected
).
