This filtering is the +difference between a full task graph and a target task graph. + +Filtering takes place on the basis of attributes. Each task has a dictionary +of attributes and filters over those attributes can be expressed in Python. A +task may not have a value for every attribute. + +The attributes, and acceptable values, are defined here. In general, attribute +names and values are the short, lower-case form, with underscores. + +kind +==== + +A task's ``kind`` attribute gives the name of the kind that generated it, e.g., +``build`` or ``spidermonkey``. + +run_on_projects +=============== + +The projects where this task should be in the target task set. This is how +requirements like "only run this on autoland" get implemented. + +.. note:: + + Please use this configuration. Running a job for all projects can quickly add up + in term of cost while not providing any value for some projects. + +`run-on-projects` can use either aliases or project names. + +These are the aliases: + + * `integration` -- integration repository (autoland) + * `trunk` -- integration repository plus mozilla-central + * `release` -- release repositories (beta, release, esr) including mozilla-central + * `all` -- everywhere (the default) + +Project names are the repositories. They can be: + +* `autoland` +* `mozilla-central` +* `mozilla-beta` +* `mozilla-release` +* `mozilla-esr115` +* ... A partial list can be found in taskcluster/gecko_taskgraph/util/attributes.py + +For try, this attribute applies only if ``-p all`` is specified. All jobs can +be specified by name regardless of ``run_on_projects``. + +If ``run_on_projects`` is set to an empty list, then the task will not run +anywhere, unless its build platform is specified explicitly in try syntax. + + +.. note:: + + As `try` pushes don't use filter_for_projects by design, there isn't a way + to define that a task will run on `try`. + + +.. note:: + + A given task `[taskA]` may not respect `run-on-projects` if there another task + `[taskB]` which is scheduled to run (such as via run-on-projects) which depends it + `[taskA]`. Because by nature of `TaskB` running we must run `TaskA`. + + See `bug 1640603 `_ as example. + +run_on_hg_branches +================== + +On a given project, the mercurial branch where this task should be in the target +task set. This is how requirements like "only run this RELBRANCH" get implemented. +These are either the regular expression of a branch (e.g.: ``GECKOVIEW_\d+_RELBRANCH``) +or the following alias: + + * `all` -- everywhere (the default) + +Like ``run_on_projects``, the same behavior applies if it is set to an empty list. + +task_duplicates +=============== + +This is used to indicate that we want multiple copies of the task created. +This feature is used to track down intermittent job failures. + +If this value is set to N, the task-creation machinery will create a total of N +copies of the task. Only the first copy will be included in the taskgraph +output artifacts, although all tasks will be contained in the same taskGroup. + +While most attributes are considered read-only, target task methods may alter +this attribute of tasks they include in the target set. + +build_platform +============== + +The build platform defines the platform for which the binary was built. It is +set for both build and test jobs, although test jobs may have a different +``test_platform``. + +build_type +========== + +The type of build being performed. This is a subdivision of ``build_platform``, +used for different kinds of builds that target the same platform. Values are + + * ``debug`` + * ``opt`` + +test_platform +============= + +The test platform defines the platform on which tests are run. It is only +defined for test jobs and may differ from ``build_platform`` when the same binary +is tested on several platforms (for example, on several versions of Windows). +This applies for both talos and unit tests. + +Unlike build_platform, the test platform is represented in a slash-separated +format, e.g., ``linux64/opt``. + +unittest_suite +============== + +This is the unit test suite being run in a unit test task. For example, +``mochitest`` or ``cppunittest``. + +unittest_category +================= + +This is the high-level category of test the suite corresponds to. This is +usually the test harness used to run the suite. + +unittest_try_name +================= + +This is the name used to refer to a unit test via try syntax. It +may not match ``unittest_suite``. + +unittest_variant +================ + +The configuration variant the test suite is running with. If set, this usually +means the tests are running with a special pref enabled. These are defined in +``taskgraph.transforms.test.TEST_VARIANTS``. + +talos_try_name +============== + +This is the name used to refer to a talos job via try syntax. + +raptor_try_name +=============== + +This is the name used to refer to a raptor job via try syntax. + +job_try_name +============ + +This is the name used to refer to a "job" via try syntax (``-j``). Note that for +some kinds, ``-j`` also matches against ``build_platform``. + +test_chunk +========== + +This is the chunk number of a chunked test suite. Note that this is a string! + +test_manifests +============== + +A list of the test manifests that run in this task. + +image_name +========== + +For the ``docker_image`` kind, this attribute contains the docker image name. + +nightly +======= + +Signals whether the task is part of a nightly graph. Useful when filtering +out nightly tasks from full task set at target stage. + +shippable +========= +Signals whether the task is considered "shippable", that it should get signed and is ok to +be used for nightlies or releases. + +all_locales +=========== + +For the ``l10n`` and ``shippable-l10n`` kinds, this attribute contains the list +of relevant locales for the platform. + +all_locales_with_changesets +=========================== + +Contains a dict of l10n changesets, mapped by locales (same as in ``all_locales``). + +l10n_chunk +========== +For the ``l10n`` and ``shippable-l10n`` kinds, this attribute contains the chunk +number of the job. Note that this is a string! + +chunk_locales +============= +For the ``l10n`` and ``shippable-l10n`` kinds, this attribute contains an array of +the individual locales this chunk is responsible for processing. + +locale +====== +For jobs that operate on only one locale, we set the attribute ``locale`` to the +specific locale involved. Currently this is only in l10n versions of the +``beetmover`` and ``balrog`` kinds. + +signed +====== +Signals that the output of this task contains signed artifacts. + +stub-installer +============== +Signals to the build system that this build is expected to have a stub installer +present, and informs followon tasks to expect it. + +repackage_type +============== +This is the type of repackage. Can be ``repackage`` or +``repackage_signing``. + +fetch-artifact +============== + +For fetch jobs, this is the path to the artifact for that fetch operation. + +fetch-alias +=========== +An alias that can be used instead of the real fetch job name in fetch +stanzas for jobs. + +toolchain-artifact +================== +For toolchain jobs, this is the path to the artifact for that toolchain. + +toolchain-alias +=============== +An alias that can be used instead of the real toolchain job name in fetch +stanzas for jobs. + +toolchain-env +============= +Extra environment variables that will be set on the worker when fetching this +toolchain. + +toolchain-command +================= +An extra attribute used to communicate to the build system bootstrap code the +command used to build the toolchain. This is useful because the commands are +formatted differently depending on the worker type, sometimes inconveniently +to parse afterwards. + +always_target +============= + +Tasks with this attribute will be included in the ``target_task_graph`` if +``parameters["tasks_for"]`` is ``hg-push``, regardless of any target task +filtering that occurs. When a task is included in this manner (i.e it otherwise +would have been filtered out), it will be considered for optimization even if +the ``optimize_target_tasks`` parameter is False. + +This is meant to be used for tasks which a developer would almost always want to +run. Typically these tasks will be short running and have a high risk of causing +a backout. For example ``lint`` or ``python-unittest`` tasks. + +shipping_product +================ +For release promotion jobs, this is the product we are shipping. + +shipping_phase +============== +For release promotion jobs, this is the shipping phase (build, promote, push, ship). +During the build phase, we build and sign shippable builds. During the promote phase, +we generate l10n repacks and push to the candidates directory. During the push phase, +we push to the releases directory. During the ship phase, we update bouncer, push to +Google Play, version bump, mark as shipped in ship-it. + +Using the "snowman model", we depend on previous graphs if they're defined. So if we +ask for a ``push`` (the head of the snowman) and point at the body and base, we only +build the head. If we don't point at the body and base, we build the whole snowman +(build, promote, push). + +artifact_prefix +=============== +Most taskcluster artifacts are public, so we've hardcoded ``public/build`` in a +lot of places. To support private artifacts, we've moved this to the +``artifact_prefix`` attribute. It will default to ``public/build`` but will be +overridable per-task. + +artifact_map +=============== +For beetmover jobs, this indicates which yaml file should be used to +generate the upstream artifacts and payload instructions to the task. + +release_artifacts +================= +A set of artifacts that are candidates for downstream release tasks to operate +on. + +batch +===== +Used by `perftest` to indicates that a task can be run as a batch. + + +enable-full-crashsymbols +======================== +In automation, full crashsymbol package generation is normally disabled. For +build kinds where the full crashsymbols should be enabled, set this attribute +to True. The full symbol packages will then be generated and uploaded on +release branches and on try. + +skip-upload-crashsymbols +======================== +Shippable/nightly builds are normally required to set enable-full-crashsymbols, +but in some limited corner cases (universal builds), that is not wanted, because +the symbols are uploaded independently already. + +upload-generated-sources +======================== +generated-sources are normally only uploaded to S3 for shippable/nightly +builds. This attributes turns that on for other builds such as macosx +before unification. + +cron +==== +Indicates that a task is meant to be run via cron tasks, and should not be run +on push. + +cached_task +=========== +Some tasks generate artifacts that are cached between pushes. This is a +dictionary with the type and name of the cache, and the unique string used to +identify the current version of the artifacts. See :py:mod:`taskgraph.util.cached_task`. + +.. code:: yaml + + cached_task: + digest: 66dfc2204600b48d92a049b6a18b83972bb9a92f9504c06608a9c20eb4c9d8ae + name: debian7-base + type: docker-images.v2 + +eager_indexes +============= +A list of strings of indexes to populate before the task ever completes. Some tasks (e.g. cached tasks) we +want to exist in the index before they even run/complete. Our current use is to allow us to depend on an +unfinished cached task in future pushes. This avoids extra overhead from multiple tasks running, and +can allow us to have our results in just a bit earlier. + +required_signoffs +================= +A list of release signoffs that this kind requires, should the release also +require these signoffs. For example, ``mar-signing`` signoffs may be required +by some releases in the future; for any releases that require ``mar-signing`` +signoffs, the kinds that also require that signoff are marked with this +attribute. + +update-channel +============== +The update channel the build is configured to use. + +mar-channel-id +============== +The mar-channel-id the build is configured to use. + +accepted-mar-channel-ids +======================== +The mar-channel-ids this build will accept updates to. It should usually be the same as +the value mar_channel_id. If more than one ID is needed, then you should use a +comma separated list of values. + +openh264_rev +============ +Only used for openh264 plugin builds, used to signify the revision (and thus inform artifact name) of the given build. + +code-review +=========== +If a task set this boolean attribute to `true`, it will be processed by the code +review bot, the task will ran for every new Phabricator diff. +Any supported and detected issue will be automatically reported on the +Phabricator revision. + +resource-monitor +================ +If a task set this boolean attribute to `true`, it will collect CPU, memory, and +- if available - Disk and Network IO by running the resource-monitor utility, +provided through fetches. + +retrigger +========= +Whether the task can be retriggered, or if it needs to be re-run. + +disable-push-apk +================ +Some GeckoView-only Android tasks produce APKs that shouldn't be +pushed to the Google Play Store. Set this to ``true`` to disable +pushing. + +disable-build-signing +===================== +Some GeckoView-only tasks produce APKs, but not APKs that should be +signed. Set this to ``true`` to disable APK signing. + +enable-build-signing +==================== +We enable build-signing for ``shippable``, ``nightly``, and ``enable-build-signing`` tasks. + +run-visual-metrics +================== +If set to true, will run the visual metrics task on the provided +video files. + +skip-verify-test-packaging +========================== +If set to true, this task will not be checked to see that +MOZ_AUTOMATION_PACKAGE_TESTS is set correctly based on whether or not the task +has dependent tests. This should only be used in very unique situations, such +as Windows AArch64 builds that copy test packages between build tasks. + +geckodriver +=========== +If non-empty, declares that the (toolchain) task is a `geckodriver` +task that produces a binary that should be signed. + +rebuild-on-release +================== +If true, the digest for this task will also depend on if the branch is a +release branch. This will cause tasks like toolchains to be rebuilt as they +move from e.g. autoland to mozilla-central. + +local-toolchain +=============== +This toolchain is used for local development, so should be built on trunk, even +if it does not have any in-graph consumers. + +artifact-build +============== + +This build is an artifact build. + +This deliberately excludes builds that are implemented using the artifact build +machinery, but are not primarily intended to short-circuit build time. In +particular the Windows aarch64 builds are not marked this way. + +maven_packages +=============== +List of maven packages produced by the build. + +supports-artifact-builds +======================== + +If false, the task requires a compiled build and will not work with artifact builds. + +primary-kind-dependency +======================= + +For tasks that were derived from a group of dependencies, this attribute +denotes which dependent kind is the `primary one`_. + +Typically this is set by the ``taskgraph.transforms.from_deps`` transforms. + +snap_test_type +============== + +For Snap tests tasks, used to disambiguate task label + +.. _primary one: https://taskcluster-taskgraph.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference/transforms/from_deps.html#primary-kind -- cgit v1.2.3
